Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 — Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures required for complete financial statements are not included herein. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. It is recommended that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes that appear in the Forrester Research, Inc. (“Forrester”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, of comprehensive income and of cash flows as of the dates and for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 may not be indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2014, or any other period.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded $0.5 million of expenses for out-of-period corrections, of which $0.4 million related to depreciation and $0.1 million related to other immaterial amounts that related to prior periods. The Company has concluded that these errors are immaterial to all prior period financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. See Note 3 – Marketable Investments for the fair value of the Company’s marketable investments.

Revision of quarterly financial statements

During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, the Company identified an immaterial prior period error of $0.1 million that had the effect of decreasing income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. The Company has reflected in the financial information included in this Note the correction of this error in the period in which it originated (in thousands except per share amounts).
