NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Table amounts in thousands, except per share data)
1. Nature of Operations and Financial Statement Presentation
Nature of Operations
Agilysys is a leading technology company that provides innovative software for point-of-sale (POS), property management, inventory and procurement, workforce management, analytics, document management and mobile and wireless solutions and services to the hospitality industry. Our solutions and services allow property managers to better connect, interact and transact with their customers and enhance their customer relationships by streamlining operations, improving efficiency, increasing guest recruitment and wallet share, and enhancing the overall guest experience. We serve four major market sectors: Gaming, both corporate and tribal; Hotels, Resorts and Cruise; Foodservice Management; and Restaurants, Universities, Stadia and Healthcare. A significant portion of our consolidated revenue is derived from contract support, maintenance and subscription services.
We operate throughout North America, Europe and Asia, with corporate services located in Alpharetta, GA, and offices in Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include our accounts consolidated with our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Our fiscal year ends on March 31st. References to a particular year refer to the fiscal year ending in March of that year. For example, fiscal 2016 refers to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016.
Our unaudited interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information, the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations relating to interim financial statements.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015, as well as the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, are unaudited. However, these financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as those in the audited annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a recurring nature necessary to fairly state the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows have been made.
These unaudited interim financial statements should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on June 5, 2015.
Correction of Errors
In connection with the preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we identified errors in the manner in which we recognized revenue on contract support. Contract support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the customer arrangement. In certain instances where contract support is an element of a multiple-element arrangement, we use a hierarchy to determine the fair value allocation for recognition of revenue on each deliverable. An error related to an input used in this allocation resulted in the overstatement of contract, maintenance, and support revenue of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The error was identified and
7

corrected during the second quarter of fiscal 2016. Additionally, during the second quarter of fiscal 2016, we identified errors in the manner in which we capitalize internal labor on software development projects. An error in the method by which internal resources account for administrative time resulted in the over capitalization of costs during the last six months of fiscal 2015 and the first three months of fiscal 2016. The error for each of the three months ended December 31, 2014, March 31, 2015, and June 30, 2015, was $0.1 million. We corrected these errors during the second quarter of fiscal 2016.
In accordance with accounting guidance found in ASC 250-10 (SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, Materiality), we assessed the materiality of the errors and concluded that the errors were not material to any of our previously issued financial statements. Correction of the errors is also not material to the nine month period ended December 31, 2015 or to our estimated fiscal 2016 results.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A detailed description of our significant accounting policies can be found in the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed therein.
Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2015, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-10, Technical Corrections and Updates. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of topics in the codification and are generally categorized as follows: Amendments Related to Differences between Original Guidance and the Codification; Guidance Clarification and Reference Corrections; Simplification; and, Minor Improvements. The amendments are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, but not required; and at this time we are not early adopting. As the objectives of this standard are to clarify the codification; correct unintended application of guidance; eliminate inconsistencies; and, to improve the codification’s presentation of guidance, the adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which converges the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board standard on revenue recognition. Areas of revenue recognition that will be affected include, but are not limited to, transfer of control, variable consideration, allocation of transfer pricing, licenses, time value of money, contract costs and disclosures. In August 2015, the FASB amended the effective date and early adoption is permitted only for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which eliminates the current requirement to present deferred tax assets and liabilities as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, entities will be required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We have evaluated the effect this pronouncement will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and determined the adoption of this standard is not expected to be material based on current classification of deferred tax assets and liabilities. We plan to early adopt for the period ending March 31, 2016.
Management continually evaluates the potential impact, if any, of all recent accounting pronouncements on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures and, if significant, makes the appropriate disclosures required by such new accounting pronouncements.

3. Acquisitions
Purchase of assets from Dining Ventures - Fiscal 2015
On July 3, 2014, Agilysys purchased certain assets from Dining Ventures, Inc. The acquired assets are the base for our rGuest® Seat product, a dining reservations and table management application. The purchase consideration consisted of approximately $3.8 million and was funded with cash on hand. Management concluded that this acquisition was not a material acquisition under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations (ASC 805). The results derived from this purchased asset have been included in our Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of acquisition and did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
The following is a summary of the fair values of the assets acquired in the acquisition:

(In thousands) |
Goodwill | $ | 2,464 |
Developed technology | 1,286 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 3,750 |

The goodwill of approximately $2.5 million arising from the acquisition consists largely of synergies expected from combining the developed technology of Dining Ventures with Agilysys' operations. The goodwill from this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes over a period of 15 years.
The following is a summary of the intangible asset acquired and the weighted-average useful life over which it will be amortized.

|  |  | Weighted-average
| Purchased assets |  | useful life
Developed technology | $ | 1,286 |  |  | 5 years

The developed technology acquired from Dining Ventures was determined to be an internal use asset and is therefore carried in fixed assets on the balance sheet and amortized in operating expenses.

4. Restructuring Charges
We recognize restructuring charges when a plan that materially changes the scope of our business or the manner in which that business is conducted is adopted and communicated to the impacted parties, and the expenses have been incurred or are reasonably estimable.
Fiscal 2015 Restructuring Activity
Q2 - In the second quarter of fiscal 2015, we implemented restructuring actions to better align product development, sales and marketing and general and administrative functions with our company strategy and to reduce operating costs. To date, we have recorded $0.2 million in restructuring charges related to the Q2 fiscal 2015 restructuring activity, comprised of severance and other employee related benefits.
Q4 - In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, we announced additional restructuring actions designed to continue the effort to better align product development, sales and marketing and general and administrative functions with our company strategy and to reduce operating costs. To date, we have recorded $0.4 million in restructuring charges related to the Q4 fiscal 2015 restructuring activity, comprised of severance and other employee related benefits.
As of December 31, 2015, there was no further liability for any of the fiscal 2015 restructuring activities.
Following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the restructuring liability:

Intangible assets are comprised of acquired and internally developed technology to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed and other non-software assets including, customer relationships, non-competition agreements, trade names and patented technology. Amortization expense of acquired and internally developed technology is included in Products cost of goods sold and was $0.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and $0.8 million and $0.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Amortization expense of non-software intangibles is included in operating expenses along with acquired and internally developed internal use software. Internal use software is classified as property and equipment in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Amortization expense of non-software intangible and internal use assets was $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and $0.9 million and $3.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Deferred Rent
Deferred rent, current plus non-current, was $3.3 million and $1.9 million as of December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2015. During the first nine months of fiscal 2016, the company renewed our operating lease commitments at our Nevada and Washington facilities through fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2024, respectively.
Accounts Receivable, net
Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts was $20.9 million and $25.5 million as of December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively. The related allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.6 million and $0.9 million as of December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively.
On January 12, 2015, an involuntary bankruptcy petition was filed against Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, Inc. (Caesars) under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On January 15, 2015, Caesars and certain of its affiliates filed a voluntary bankruptcy petition under Chapter 11. Those cases have been consolidated in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Illinois. At March 31, 2015, our accounts receivable owing by Caesars and its affiliates who have filed a bankruptcy petition totaled approximately $3.2 million, including both pre- and post-petition claims. The total amount owed as of March 31, 2015 represents approximately 13% of our outstanding accounts receivable as of March 31, 2015. As of May 26, 2015, we filed a proof of claim with the Bankruptcy Court identifying approximately $0.7 million of pre-petition claims. In January 2016, we filed an amended proof of claim with the Bankruptcy Court identifying approximately $0.2 million of pre-petition claim in addition to those filed on May 26, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, approximately $0.7 million of pre-petition claims remain outstanding.

7. Income Taxes
The following table compares our income tax benefit and effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

| Three months ended |  | Nine months ended
| December 31, |  | December 31,
(Dollars in thousands) | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Income tax benefit | $ | (56 | ) |  | $ | (62 | ) |  | $ | (100 | ) |  | $ | (777 | )
Effective tax rate | 3.2 | % |  | 2.3 | % |  | 4.3 | % |  | 11.4 | %

For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2015, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, an adjustment to true-up indefinite-lived intangibles, a refunded settlement of an unrecognized tax benefit, foreign and state taxes, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2014, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the decrease in unrecognized tax benefits attributable to the expiration of statute of limitations, recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.
We have recorded a valuation allowance offsetting substantially all of our deferred tax assets. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences are deductible. Because of our losses in prior periods, management believes that it is more-likely-than-not that we will not realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The amount of valuation allowance, however, could be reduced in the near term. The exact timing will be based on the level of profitability we achieve. We expect a full release of the valuation allowance associated with deferred tax assets in Hong Kong. We expect that the release of the valuation allowance will be recorded as an income tax benefit at the time of release increasing our reported net income. Our recorded tax rate may increase in subsequent periods following a valuation allowance release. Any valuation allowance release will not affect the amount of cash paid for income taxes.
8. Commitments and Contingencies
Agilysys is the subject of various threatened or pending legal actions and contingencies in the normal course of conducting its business. We provide for costs related to these matters when a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The effect of the outcome of these matters on our future results of operations and liquidity cannot be predicted because any such effect depends on future results of operations and the amount or timing of the resolution of such matters. While it is not possible to predict with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of such individual or aggregated matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
On April 6, 2012, Ameranth, Inc. filed a complaint against us for patent infringement in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. The complaint alleges, among other things, that point-of-sale and property management and other hospitality information technology products, software, components and/or systems sold by us infringe three patents owned by Ameranth purporting to cover generation and synchronization of menus, including restaurant menus, event tickets, and other products across fixed, wireless and/or internet platforms as well as synchronization of hospitality information and hospitality software applications across fixed, wireless and internet platforms. The complaint seeks monetary damages, injunctive relief, costs and attorneys' fees. At this time, we are not able to predict the outcome of this lawsuit, or any possible monetary exposure associated with the lawsuit. However, we dispute the allegations of wrongdoing and are vigorously defending ourselves in this matter. The litigation is currently stayed pending appeals of covered business method reviews by the United States Patent and Trademark Office of a subset of the patents alleged to be infringed by Agilysys.

9. (Loss) Earnings per Share
The following data shows the amounts used in computing (loss) earnings per share and the effect on income and the weighted average number of shares of dilutive potential common shares.

| Three months ended |  | Nine months ended
| December 31, |  | December 31,
(In thousands, except per share data) | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Numerator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Net loss | $ | (1,673 | ) |  | $ | (2,715 | ) |  | $ | (2,227 | ) |  | (6,071 | )
Denominator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Weighted average shares outstanding | 22,493 |  |  | 22,343 |  |  | 22,479 |  |  | 22,336 |
Loss per share - basic and diluted: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Loss per share | $ | (0.07 | ) |  | $ | (0.12 | ) |  | $ | (0.10 | ) |  | $ | (0.27 | )
Anti-dilutive stock options, SSARs, restricted shares and performance shares | 1,804 |  |  | 1,467 |  |  | 1,633 |  |  | 1,360 |

Basic (loss) earnings per share is computed as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average basic shares outstanding. The outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted average basic shares excludes 455,574 and 479,268 of restricted shares at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as these shares were issued but were not vested and, therefore, not considered outstanding for purposes of computing basic earnings per share at the balance sheet dates.
Diluted (loss) earnings per share includes the effect of all potentially dilutive securities on earnings per share. We have stock options, stock-settled appreciation rights (SSARs) and unvested restricted shares that are potentially dilutive securities. When a loss is reported, the denominator of diluted earnings per share cannot be adjusted for the dilutive impact of share-based compensation awards because doing so would be anti-dilutive. Therefore, for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, basic weighted-average shares outstanding were used in calculating the diluted net loss per share.
10. Share-based Compensation
We may grant non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock-settled stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, and restricted share units for up to 3.0 million common shares under our 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2011 Plan). The maximum number of shares subject to stock options or SSARs that may be granted to an individual in a calendar year is 800,000 shares, and the maximum number of shares subject to restricted shares or restricted share units that may be granted to an individual in a calendar year is 400,000 shares. The maximum aggregate number of restricted shares or restricted share units that may be granted under the 2011 Plan is 1.0 million.
We have a shareholder-approved 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan) and a 2000 Stock Incentive Plan that still have vested awards outstanding. Awards are no longer being granted from these incentive plans.
We may distribute authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares to satisfy share option and appreciation right exercises or restricted share and performance share awards.
We record compensation expense related to stock options, SSARs, restricted shares, and performance shares granted to certain employees and non-employee directors based on the fair value of the awards on the grant date. The fair value of restricted share and performance share awards is based on the closing price of our common shares on the grant date. The fair value of stock option and SSARs awards is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing

Exercisable at December 31, 2015 | 268,261 |  |  | $ | 9.74 |  |  | 3.9 |  | $ | 372 |

As of December 31, 2015, total unrecognized stock based compensation expense related to non-vested SSARs was $2.2 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average vesting period of 2.04 years.

Table of Contents
A total of 2,499 shares, net of 892 shares withheld to cover the employee’s minimum applicable income taxes, were issued from treasury shares to settle SSARs exercised during the nine months ended December 31, 2015. The shares withheld were returned to treasury shares.
Restricted Shares
We granted shares to certain of our Directors, executives and key employees under the 2011 Plan, the vesting of which is service-based. The following table summarizes the activity during the nine months ended December 31, 2015 for restricted shares awarded under the 2011 Plan:

| Number of Shares |  | Weighted- Average Grant- Date Fair Value
(In thousands, except share and per share data) |  |  | (per share)
Outstanding at April 1, 2015 | 322,086 |  |  | $ | 13.49 |

Vested | (25,487 | ) |  | 10.70 |
Forfeited | (32,111 | ) |  | 13.06 |
Outstanding at December 31, 2015 | 447,762 |  |  | $ | 11.98 |

The weighted-average grant date fair value of the restricted shares is determined based upon the closing price of our common shares on the grant date. As of December 31, 2015, total unrecognized stock based compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock was $3.4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average vesting period of 1.59 years.
Performance Shares
The following table summarizes the activity during the nine months ended December 31, 2015 for performance shares awarded under the 2011 Plan:

| Number of Shares |  | Weighted- Average Grant- Date Fair Value
|  |  | (per share)
Outstanding at April 1, 2015 | — |  |  | $ | — |
Granted | 7,812 |  |  | 9.60 |
Outstanding at December 31, 2015 | 7,812 |  |  | $ | 9.60 |

The weighted-average grant date fair value of the performance shares is determined based upon the closing price of our common shares on the grant date and assumed that performance goals would be met at target. As of December 31, 2015, total unrecognized stock based compensation expense related to non-vested performance shares was $0.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average vesting period of 0.61 years.

11. Fair Value Measurements
We estimate the fair value of financial instruments using available market information and generally accepted valuation methodologies. We assess the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy. The hierarchy indicates the extent to which pricing inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Level 1 inputs include unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities and are the most observable. Level 2 inputs include unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities that are either directly or indirectly observable, or other observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity rates, and yield curves. Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include our own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The use of observable and unobservable inputs is reflected in the hierarchy assessment disclosed in the tables below.
There were no significant transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the nine months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.
The following tables present information about our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value:

| Fair value measurement used
| Recorded value as of |  | Active markets for identical assets or liabilities |  | Quoted prices in similar instruments and observable inputs |  | Active markets for unobservable inputs

Contingent consideration — non-current | 104 |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | 104 |

The recorded value of the corporate-owned life insurance policies is adjusted to the cash surrender value of the policies obtained from the third party life insurance providers, which are not observable in the market, and therefore, are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the cash surrender value of these policies are recorded within “Other (income) expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined by calculating the probability-weighted earn-out payments based on the assessment of the likelihood that certain milestones would be achieved.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
In “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (“MD&A”), management explains the general financial condition and results of operations for Agilysys and subsidiaries including:
— what factors affect our business;
— what our earnings and costs were;
— why those earnings and costs were different from the year before;
— where the earnings came from;
— how our financial condition was affected; and
— where the cash will come from to fund future operations.
The MD&A analyzes changes in specific line items in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and provides information that management believes is important to assessing and understanding our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q updates information included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes that appear in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report as well as our Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 2015. Information provided in the MD&A may include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual results to be materially different from those contained in the forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Information” on page 31 of this Quarterly Report, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in Part II of this Quarterly Report, and Item 1A “Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 for additional information concerning these items. Management believes that this information, discussion, and disclosure is important in making decisions about investing in Agilysys.

Net revenue. Total net revenue increased $6.6 million, or 26.5%, during the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Products revenue increased $4.7 million, or 64.5%, with a significant portion of the growth coming from increased sales related to our existing on-premise proprietary offerings, including hardware replacement sales, as well as increased new logo hardware sales related to our proprietary software sold as a service. Hardware and proprietary software revenue increased $3.5 million, or 75.0%, and $0.8 million, or 49.1%, respectively during the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Support, maintenance and subscription services revenue increased $1.0 million, or 7.0%, as a result of continued focus on selling hosted perpetual and subscription based service revenue which saw a 24.4% increase over the same period a year ago, and ongoing support from our proprietary product sales. Professional services revenue increased $0.9 million, or 25.5%, as a result of increased volume of customer installation and implementation projects associated with growth in overall product revenue.
Gross profit and gross profit margin. Our total gross profit increased $2.4 million, or 16.8%, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and total gross profit margin decreased approximately 440 basis points to 52.7%. Products gross profit increased $2.1 million and gross profit margin increased approximately 230 basis points to 41.4% primarily as a result of $0.1 million of software amortization benefit related to developed technology becoming fully amortized in the prior year period, offset by a higher mix of lower margin hardware sales. Support, maintenance and subscription services gross profit remained consistent and gross margin decreased 580 basis points to 72.6% as we continue to invest in our subscription platform. Professional services gross profit increased $0.4 million and gross profit margin improved approximately 610 basis points to 16.8% primarily as a result of more efficient use of labor during the third quarter of fiscal 2016 as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2015. During the third quarter of fiscal 2015 gross margin was negatively impacted by increased labor costs required to meet certain customer expectations which resulted in subnormal blended utilization rates.

Operating expenses
Operating expenses, excluding the charges for asset write-offs and other fair value adjustments, legal settlements and restructuring, severance and other charges, increased $1.3 million, or 7.7%, in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2015.
Product development. Product development includes all expenses associated with research and development. Product development increased $0.3 million, or 4.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2015. This increase is primarily driven by our continued investment in resources related to both our rGuest® and non-rGuest® product enhancements to expand the customer experience across our install base as well as our future offerings with existing and new customers. In addition, certain research and development costs are capitalized as software development costs upon achieving specific milestones in the development life-cycle. We capitalized approximately $3.4 million and $4.5 million as software development costs for future use during the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing increased $0.9 million, or 24.9%, in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2015. The change is due primarily to $0.7 million of costs related to an increase in headcount of quota carrying salespeople and commission expense in line with revenue achievements during the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2015.
General and administrative. General and administrative increased $0.3 million, or 6.6%, in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2015 due primarily to $0.2 of a loss on disposal of internal use software related to our support ticketing system and increases in legal professional service fees.
Amortization of intangibles. Amortization of intangibles decreased $0.3 million or 48.0% in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared with the third quarter of fiscal 2015 primarily due to $0.3 million of reduced expense in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 related to assets becoming fully amortized and assets being replaced or impaired during fiscal 2015.
Legal settlements. During the third quarter of fiscal 2016, we recorded $0.2 million in legal settlements primarily related to employment matters.

Interest income. Interest income consists of interest earned on investments in certificates of deposit, commercial paper and corporate bonds.
Interest expense. Interest expense consists of costs associated with capital leases and loans on corporate-owned life insurance policies. Interest expense remained flat in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2015.
Other expense (income). Other expense (income) consists mainly of the impact of foreign currency due to movement of Asian and European currencies against the US dollar and gain or loss on corporate-owned life insurance policies.

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, an adjustment to true-up indefinite-lived intangibles, a refunded settlement of an unrecognized tax benefit, foreign and state taxes, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.
For the three months ended December 31, 2014, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the decrease in unrecognized tax benefits attributable to the expiration of statute of limitations, recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.
Although the timing and outcome of tax settlements are uncertain, it is reasonably possible that during the next 12 months a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits may occur in the range of zero to $0.1 million of tax and zero to $0.1 million of interest based on the outcome of tax examinations and as a result of the expiration of various statutes of limitations. We are routinely audited; due to the ongoing nature of current examinations in multiple jurisdictions, other changes could occur in the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits during the next 12 months which cannot be estimated at this time.
We have recorded a valuation allowance offsetting substantially all of our deferred tax assets. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences are deductible. Because of our losses in prior periods, management believes that it is more-likely-than-not that we will not realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The amount of valuation allowance, however, could be reduced in the near term. The exact timing will be based on the level of profitability we achieve. We expect a full release of the valuation allowance associated with deferred tax assets in Hong Kong. We expect that the release of the valuation allowance will be recorded as an income tax benefit at the time of release increasing our reported net income. Our recorded tax rate may increase in subsequent periods following a valuation allowance release. Any valuation allowance release will not affect the amount of cash paid for income taxes.

Operating expenses
Operating expenses, excluding the charges for asset write-offs and other fair value adjustments, legal settlements and restructuring, severance and other charges, increased by $1.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2016 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2015.
Product development. Product development includes all expenses associated with research and development. Product development increased $1.3 million, or 6.9% in the first nine months of fiscal 2016 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2015. This increase is primarily driven by our our continued investment in resources related to both our rGuest® and non-rGuest® product enhancements to expand the customer experience across our install base as well as our future offerings with existing and new customers. In addition, certain research and development costs are capitalized as software development costs upon achieving specific milestones in the development life-cycle. We capitalized approximately $10.9 million and $12.3 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing increased $3.0 million, or 26.2%, in the first nine months of fiscal 2016 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2015. The change is due primarily to $2.7 million of costs related to an increase in headcount of quota carrying salespeople and commission expense in line with revenue achievements during the first nine months of fiscal 2016 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2015.
General and administrative. General and administrative decreased $0.5 million, or 2.9%, in the first nine months of fiscal 2016 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2015 due primarily to a reduction in spend related to system upgrades that occurred during the first half of fiscal 2015 and a reduction in discretionary expenses as we begin to yield the benefit from the restructuring activities announced in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015.
Amortization of intangibles. Amortization of intangibles decreased $2.1 million, or 68.7%, in the first nine months of fiscal 2016 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2015. In October 2013, we initiated an internal ERP replacement project and determined that amortization for our existing ERP system should be accelerated. We recorded approximately $0.9 million in the first half of fiscal 2015 of additional amortization in connection with this acceleration. The existing ERP system was fully amortized as of June 30, 2014. Additionally, $1.1 million was recorded during the first nine months of fiscal 2015 related to assets becoming fully amortized and assets being replaced or impaired during fiscal 2015.
Restructuring, severance and other charges. In the second quarter of fiscal 2015, we implemented restructuring actions to better align product development, sales and marketing and general and administrative functions and to reduce operating costs and recorded $0.2 million in restructuring charges related to the fiscal 2015 activities, comprised of severance and other employee related benefits. In addition, during the first nine months of fiscal 2015, we recorded $0.4 million related to fiscal 2014 restructuring activities announced to better align corporate functions and to reduce operation costs following the sale of RSG. Non-restructuring severance and other charges during the first nine months of fiscal 2015 were approximately $0.4 million.
Asset write-offs and other fair value adjustments. During the first nine months of fiscal 2016, we recorded a gain of $0.2 million related to the write-off of product transition costs previously accrued for in connection with an impairment of our Guest 360™ property management solution in fiscal 2012. The customer associated with this residual reserve became insolvent during the second quarter of fiscal 2016.
Legal settlements. During each of the first nine months of fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015, we recorded $0.2 million in legal settlements for employment and other business related matters.

For the first nine months of fiscal 2016, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, an adjustment to true-up indefinite-lived intangibles, a refunded settlement of an unrecognized tax benefit, foreign and state taxes, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.
For the first nine months of fiscal 2015, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the decrease in unrecognized tax benefits attributable to the expiration of statute of limitations, recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.
Although the timing and outcome of tax settlements are uncertain, it is reasonably possible that during the next 12 months a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits may occur the range of zero to $0.1 million of tax and zero to $0.1 million of interest based on the outcome of tax examinations and as a result of the expiration of various statutes of limitations. We are routinely audited; due to the ongoing nature of current examinations in multiple jurisdictions, other changes could occur in the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits during the next 12 months which cannot be estimated at this time.

Acquisitions
Purchase of assets from Dining Ventures - Fiscal 2015
On July 3, 2014, Agilysys purchased certain assets from Dining Ventures, Inc. The acquired assets are the base for our rGuest® Seat product, a dining reservations and table management application. The purchase consideration consisted of approximately $3.8 million and was funded with cash on hand. Management concluded that this acquisition was not a material acquisition under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations (ASC 805). The results derived from this purchased asset have been included in our Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of acquisition and did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
The following is a summary of the fair values of the assets acquired in the acquisition:

(In thousands) |
Goodwill | $ | 2,464 |
Developed technology | 1,286 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 3,750 |

The goodwill of approximately $2.5 million arising from the acquisition consists largely of synergies expected from combining the developed technology of Dining Ventures with Agilysys' operations. The goodwill from this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes over a period of 15 years.
The following is a summary of the intangible asset acquired and the weighted-average useful life over which it will be amortized.

|  |  | Weighted-average
| Purchased assets |  | useful life
Developed technology | $ | 1,286 |  |  | 5 years

The developed technology acquired from Dining Ventures was determined to be an internal use asset and is therefore carried in fixed assets on the balance sheet and amortized in operating expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our operating cash requirements consist primarily of working capital needs, operating expenses, capital expenditures, and payments of principal and interest on indebtedness outstanding, which primarily consists of lease and rental obligations at December 31, 2015. We believe that cash flow from operating activities, cash on hand of $65.7 million as of December 31, 2015 and access to capital markets will provide adequate funds to meet our short- and long-term liquidity requirements in the next 12 months.
As of December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2015, our total debt was approximately $0.2 million, comprised of capital lease obligations in both periods.
At December 31, 2015, 100% of our cash and cash equivalents were deposited in bank accounts or invested in highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. We maintain approximately 96% of our cash and cash equivalents in the United States. Therefore, we believe that credit risk is limited with respect to our cash and cash equivalents.

Cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities. Cash flows provided by operating activities was $8.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2016. The use of cash was attributable to $5.3 million in net working capital movements associated mainly with $4.5 million in increased collections on accounts receivable partially associated with the timing of annual support billings, $5.5 million increase deferred revenue related to support services, offset by increases in inventory and other prepaid expenses of $4.5 million. Working capital movements were positively impacted by $3.5 million related to our operating loss adjusted for depreciation, amortization, share based compensation, asset write-offs and fair value adjustments, and loss on disposal of property & equipment.
Cash flows used in operating activities were $7.5 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2015. The use of cash was mostly attributable to $1.7 million in legal settlement payments, $3.8 million for working capital movements related to the timing of bonus payments and payments to vendors, $4.5 million from deferred revenue for support services performed during the period. This was partially offset by $2.3 million related to collections of customer receivables.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences or that might otherwise impact the business include the risk factors set forth in Item 1A in Part II of this Quarterly Report and Item IA of our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. We undertake no obligation to update any such factor or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting us, see Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” contained in our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. There have been no material changes in our market risk exposures since March 31, 2015.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management of the Company, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on their evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2015 because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described further below.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We did not maintain effective controls over the valuation of indefinite-lived intangible assets and capitalized software assets. Specifically, we did not design and maintain effective controls related to the review of significant assumptions used in the related impairment tests. While this control deficiency did not result in a material misstatement of previously filed annual or interim consolidated financial statements, the deficiency could result in misstatements of the aforementioned accounts and disclosures that would result in a material misstatement of the annual or interim
31

consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constituted a material weakness.
Also in February 2016, our management evaluated multiple out of quarter adjustments that were not detected and corrected on a timely basis by our review controls in fiscal year 2016, including those described under the heading “Correction of Errors” in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements above. While these out of quarter adjustments were not material individually and in the aggregate to the consolidated financial statements, these adjustments indicate that our review controls in certain areas requiring complex manual calculations and application of certain complex accounting matters are not operating effectively. In aggregate, this control deficiency suggests an underlying risk that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constituted a material weakness.
Remediation
We have begun to put additional controls in place relating to our review of significant assumptions used in the valuation of the indefinite-lived intangibles and capitalized software development cost assets, including designing, documenting, and implementing additional control procedures related to the review of the assumptions and data inputs used in the analyses, as well as assessing the overall results of the impairment analyses. As part of this process, we are refining our models and ensuring supporting evidence of detailed assumptions is retained and reviewed with the appropriate level of precision.
In response to the fiscal year 2016 out of quarter adjustments, management has implemented organizational changes designed to streamline roles and enhance the precision of review control procedures in certain areas that require complex manual calculations, such as fair value allocation for support revenue and capitalization of internal labor hours, and ensure management documentation for the application of certain complex accounting matters is sufficient to satisfy the objective of the related review controls and their timely execution.
Our management believes the foregoing efforts will effectively remediate the material weaknesses. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, our management may execute additional measures to address the material weaknesses or modify the remediation plan described and will continue to review and make necessary changes to the overall design of our internal controls.
Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
None.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting, and our business may be adversely affected if we do not adequately address those weaknesses or if we have other material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting.
We have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2015, because of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
We did not adequately design and maintain effective controls related to the review of significant assumptions used in the impairment tests related to the valuation of indefinite-lived intangible assets and capitalized software assets. Also, multiple out of quarter adjustments that were not detected and corrected on a timely basis by our review controls in fiscal year 2016 indicate that certain of our review controls are not operating effectively. While these control deficiencies did
32

not result in a material misstatement of previously filed annual or interim consolidated financial statements, these control deficiencies suggest an underlying risk that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The existence of these or one or more other material weaknesses or significant deficiencies could result in errors in our financial statements, and substantial costs and resources may be required to address these and any other internal control deficiencies. If we cannot produce reliable financial reports, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, the market price of our stock could decline significantly, and our business and operating results could be materially and adversely affected.
