NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts in thousands, except per share and employee data unless otherwise noted)

NOTE 1 - GENERAL AND BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and accordingly, do not include all information and footnotes required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these interim financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of Forgent Networks, Inc. (“Forgent” or the “Company”) as of April 30, 2005 and July 31, 2004, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005 and April 30, 2004, and the cash flows for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and April 30, 2004. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2004, as amended. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full fiscal year. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year’s financial statement to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2 – INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LEGAL CONTRACTS

At the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2005, Forgent terminated its previous legal counsel participating in the Company’s Patent Licensing Program. As a result of discussions following the termination, on December 21, 2004, Forgent entered into a Resolution Agreement with its former counsel and a letter agreement with three law firms who previously served as local counsel in the litigation of the Company’s U.S. Patent No. 4,698,672 (the “‘672 Litigation”). Under the Resolution Agreement, the Company agreed to pay its former counsel an initial amount of $1,000, 50% of the first $6,000 in gross recoveries received on or after October 27, 2004 and 10% of all gross recoveries received thereafter. Under the letter agreement, the Company agreed to pay the three local counsel law firms an initial amount of $37.5, 7.5% of the first $6,000 in settlements or judgments received from certain defendants and 1.5% of all settlements or judgments received from such defendants thereafter. Forgent paid the $1,037.5 as required by these two agreements in December 2004.

Also in January 2005, Forgent entered into an agreement with The Roth Law Firm, P.C. (“Roth”) to represent the Company as local counsel in Marshall, Texas. Under this agreement, Forgent agreed to pay Roth 10% of all litigation proceeds resulting from the ‘672 Litigation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, once the program’s total gross proceeds received on or after January 1, 2005 exceed $10,000. Additionally, Forgent agreed to pay Roth its standard hourly rate for time incurred, not to exceed $500 in the aggregate.

In February 2005, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation ordered the eight actions related to the ‘672 Litigation to be centralized and transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. As a result, Roth’s and the three local law firms’ legal services are not currently required.

Legal expenses for the contingency fees and legal counsel’s time incurred are recorded as part of cost of sales from Forgent’s intellectual property licensing business on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Cost of sales for the intellectual property licensing business for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005 were $970 and $5,451, respectively. Cost of sales for the intellectual property licensing business for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004 were $134 and $4,469, respectively. Other legal expenses incurred related to the ‘672 patent are recorded as part of operating expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Other related legal expenses for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005 were $1,447 and $3,050, respectively. Other related legal expenses for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004 were $296 and $785, respectively.

NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS

During the first fiscal quarter of 2004, Forgent acquired substantially all of the assets and operations of Network Simplicity Software, Inc., a privately held provider of web-based scheduling solutions. The acquired software products, targeted for small to medium sized businesses and departments or divisions of large enterprises, are sold under the Company’s NetSimplicity software product line. This strategic acquisition allowed the Company to expand its market opportunities into the small to medium sized business market. As a result of the acquisition, Forgent’s workforce grew by ten employees and the acquired workforce remained based in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada.

Forgent purchased Network Simplicity Software, Inc. for approximately $3,315, consisting of $2,115 in cash and assumed liabilities, and approximately $1,200 in potential future cash considerations. The $2,115 was the amount recorded as the purchase price of the acquisition, which was accounted for as a purchase of assets. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated lives of two to three years.

During April 2004, $358 of the potential future cash considerations was earned by the seller of Network Simplicity Software, Inc. (“Seller”), recorded as an adjustment to the purchase price and allocated to acquired software. This contingent amount was paid in May 2004. During October 2004, $678 of the potential future cash considerations was earned, recorded as an adjustment to the purchase price and allocated to the acquired software. As of April 30, 2005, only $105 of the $678 contingency amount had been paid to the Seller. In April 2005, Forgent entered into a Settlement Agreement with the Seller, in which the Seller delivered certain software code related to the original Asset Purchase Agreement and waived the remaining $578 payment and any additional payments tied to future contingencies. Additionally, Forgent and the Seller mutually agreed to terminate the Asset Purchase Agreement and released all claims against each other related to this agreement. As a result of the Settlement Agreement, $63 of intangible assets related to the Non-Compete Agreement was fully amortized and the purchase price and allocation to the acquired software was adjusted during the third fiscal quarter. The following table shows the amounts assigned to each major asset and liability class:


	Initial Purchase Price Allocation		Adjustments		Total
Cash	$	55	$	—	$	55
Accounts receivable, net		137				137
Prepaid expenses		3				3
Fixed assets		37				37
Intangible assets		425				425

Accounts payable		15				15
Accrued liabilities		64				64
Deferred revenue		33				33

Total Liabilities	$	112	$	—	$	112

Net Assets	$	2,115	$	463	$	2,578

NOTE 4 – SALE OF ASSETS

During fiscal year 2004, Forgent experienced declining revenues related to its ALLIANCE software products and services and therefore decided to cease actively marketing and selling the ALLIANCE software products as of January 31, 2004. On November 24, 2004, Forgent entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement and sold certain patents and other intellectual property and documentation related to the management and scheduling, planning and execution of audio, video and web conferencing to Tandberg Telecom AS (“Tandberg”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Tandberg ASA. Included in this sale is Forgent’s ALLIANCE software suite. Additionally, the Company licensed certain patents to Tandberg and released Tandberg from and agreed not to assert claims related to Forgent’s retained patents and intellectual property. The ALLIANCE assets were fully impaired and charged to the software segment’s operations during the second fiscal quarter of 2004. Forgent received $3,750 in cash upon closing in November 2004. The sale was recorded as $364 in revenues from intellectual property licensing and $3,305 in gain, net of expenses, on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended April 30, 2005, based on the estimated fair values of the items sold and licensed patents. This transaction allowed the Company to simplify its business, focus on its core operations and generate additional cash. Forgent remains committed to its existing ALLIANCE customers and will complete its underlying maintenance agreements as well as assist its customers, upon request, through the transition to the TANDBERG Management Suite, Tandberg’s video-management software.

NOTE 5 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In July 2003, Forgent sold substantially all of the assets of its videoconferencing hardware services business, based in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, to an affiliate of Gores Technology Group (“Gores”), a privately held international acquisition and management firm. As a result of the sale, the Company has presented this business as discontinued operations on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The $1,013 in income recorded from discontinued operations during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, represents the final cash payment received from Gores in January 2005 for indemnity claims held in escrow. No indemnity claims were paid pursuant to the sales agreement with Gores. Details of this escrowed fund and other important information are set forth in the Company’s proxy statement for fiscal year 2002. The $573 in income recorded from discontinued operations during the nine months ended April 30, 2004, represent $575 in cash received from Gores in January 2004 for purchase price adjustments related to the sale and related residual disposal activity. The Company did not conduct any business from this business line during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, or during the nine months ended April 30, 2004.

NOTE 6 – ASSET IMPAIRMENT

During the nine months ended April 30, 2004, Forgent recorded impairment losses on its Consolidated Statement of Operations as follows:


	Intellectual Property Segment		Software Segment		Total Impairment
Prepaid assets	$	—	$	90	$	90
Capitalized software development costs		—		4,748		4,748

FORGENT NETWORKS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts in thousands, except per share and employee data unless otherwise noted)

During the second fiscal quarter of 2004, Forgent faced declining revenues related to its ALLIANCE software products and services, while experiencing increasing revenues related to its NetSimplicity software products and services. Additionally, management learned that while indicators of demand existed for ALLIANCE, issues regarding price sensitivity, lengthy sales cycle and integration with enterprise infrastructures were preventing ALLIANCE from achieving the revenues that management originally anticipated. Starting in January 2004, management reviewed its software segment, the related cash flows from its ALLIANCE and NetSimplicity product lines and re-evaluated its strategy regarding growing revenues from this segment. As a result, Forgent decided to cease actively marketing and selling its ALLIANCE software products and impaired the ALLIANCE assets.

Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed,” and SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” Forgent evaluated the recoverability of its long-lived assets, including the equipment and capitalized software development costs, related to the ALLIANCE efforts. Based on the projected negative cash flows related to ALLIANCE, Forgent fully impaired the $4,748 in net capitalized software development costs and $211 in equipment related to ALLIANCE. Additionally, Forgent impaired $100 of certain prepaid assets that specifically supported ALLIANCE. Due to the decrease in software and services revenues and Forgent’s shift in its strategy for its software segment, the Company was also required to perform an impairment analysis in accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” As part of the impairment analysis, Forgent determined the implied fair value of goodwill based on a discounted cash flow model. As a result of this valuation, Forgent recorded a $5,042 impairment of its goodwill related to its acquisitions of Vosaic, LLC and Global Scheduling Solutions, Inc. The technology obtained from these acquisitions supported the development efforts on ALLIANCE and its predecessor, Forgent’s Video Network Platform. The $10,101 impairment charge related to ALLIANCE was recorded to the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended April 30, 2004, with $4,838 in cost of sales and $5,263 in operating expenses.

Due to the change in focus of its software segment, Forgent also evaluated the recoverability of its intangible assets and long-lived assets related to its NetSimplicity product line in accordance with SFAS No. 142 and SFAS No. 144. These assets included fixed assets and intangible assets. Based on the projected positive cash flow related to NetSimplicity, Forgent did not record any impairment charge related to its NetSimplicity assets for the nine months ended April 30, 2004.

In January 2004, the Company closed its sales office in Melville, New York. Management was unable to sublease the vacated space and upon review of the future discounted cash flows related to this lease, management recorded an impairment charge of $78. Additionally, management analyzed the discounted cash flows related to its Wild Basin property lease and subleases over the remainder of the lease term. Although Forgent was able to sublease the vacated space more quickly than originally anticipated, the rates on the subleases were less than originally anticipated due to depressed current market rates. Therefore, management calculated the economic value of the lost sublease rental income and recorded an additional charge of $1,465. During the second fiscal quarter of 2004, Forgent also analyzed its recorded leasehold improvements at its Wild Basin property. This analysis indicated that certain leasehold improvements were no longer of value. Therefore, management recorded an impairment charge of $183 related to these leasehold improvements. The $1,726 impairment related to the Wild Basin and New York leases and the leasehold improvements were recorded as part of operating expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended April 30, 2004.

NOTE 7 – SALE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

During the first fiscal quarter of 2004, the Company sold $1,746 of its outstanding accounts receivable, without recourse, to Silicon Valley Bank in order to maintain cash balances at levels considered appropriate by management. Silicon Valley Bank purchased the assets at face value, less fees of approximately 1.2% of the face value of the accounts receivable sold and a one-time annual set-up fee of $10. The Company received proceeds from Silicon Valley Bank of $1,713. No accounts receivable were sold during the nine months ended April 30, 2005.

Under the provisions of SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” a transfer of receivables may be accounted for as a sale if the following three conditions are met: (1) the transferred assets are isolated from the transferor, (2) the transferee has the right to pledge or sell the transferred assets, and (3) the transferor does not maintain control over the transferred assets.

FORGENT NETWORKS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts in thousands, except per share and employee data unless otherwise noted)

Accordingly, the Company recorded the transfer of the accounts receivable as a sale of assets, excluded the related receivables from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet and recorded related expenses of $30 for the nine months ended April 30, 2004.

NOTE 8 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

In accordance with the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” the Company’s comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income (loss), foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on short-term investments held as available-for-sale securities. Comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005 was $4,292 and $3,665, respectively. Comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004 was $4,406 and $19,796, respectively.

NOTE 9 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment,” which supersedes Accounting Principle Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” This pronouncement eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using APB Opinion No. 25 and requires share-based compensation to employees, including employee stock options and similar awards, to be measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date using either the Black-Scholes or a binomial option-pricing model. The value of the awards is recognized as compensation expense on the statement of operations over the vesting period of the awards. Forgent currently does not expense its share-based compensation based upon the fair value method, but discloses the effect of these items as required by SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148. See Note 10 -“Stock Based Compensation.” SFAS No. 123R is effective for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Based on current stock options granted, management will continue using the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of its options and anticipates it will incur compensation expense of approximately $100 - $200 per quarter upon adoption of this standard during the first fiscal quarter of 2006.

NOTE 10 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company follows APB Opinion 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations in accounting for stock option grants. As required by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure,” Forgent discloses the pro forma effect on net income and net income per common share as if compensation costs had been determined based on the fair value of the options granted to employees and recognized ratably over the vesting period. The fair value of stock option grants has been estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Had the compensation costs been recognized as prescribed by SFAS No. 123, net income and basic and diluted earnings per share would have changed to the pro forma amounts shown below:

NOTE 11 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

Currently, the Company operates in two distinct segments: intellectual property licensing and software and services. Forgent’s intellectual property licensing business is currently focused on generating licensing revenues relating to the Company’s data compression technology embodied in U.S. Patent No. 4,698,672 and its foreign counterparts and is currently conducted through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Compression Labs, Inc. Forgent’s software and services business currently provides customers with scheduling and asset management software as well as software maintenance and support, installation and training services.

The Company evaluates the performance as well as the financial results of its segments. Included in the segment operating income (loss) is an allocation of certain corporate operating expenses. The Company does not identify assets or capital expenditures by reportable segments, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer do not evaluate the segments based on these criteria.

NOTE 12 - CONTINGENCY

In February 2003, the Company received a letter from legal counsel for the independent executrix of the Estate of Gordon Matthews, asserting that the Company was obligated to pay the independent executrix of the Estate of Gordon Matthews for the asserted value of services claimed to have been rendered by Mr. Matthews in connection with his alleged involvement in the Company’s Patent Licensing Program. In February 2003, the Company initiated an action in the 261st District Court in Travis County, Texas, styled Forgent Networks, Inc. v. Monika Matthews, et al., for the purposes of declaring that the Company has no obligation to the defendant. In that action, the defendant filed a counter claim asserting that the independent executrix of the Estate of Gordon Matthews was entitled to recover in quantum meruit for the reasonable value of the work and services claimed to have been provided by Gordon Matthews, a former member of the board of directors and consultant to the Company, which the defendant asserted was at least $5.0 million.

The matter went to trial on April 26, 2005. On May 6, 2005, the jury unanimously concluded that Forgent has no further liability to the Estate of Gordon Matthews. Additionally, the Company was successful in its claim for payment of prior officer loans and attorney’s fees.

NOTE 13 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On May 31, 2005, Forgent entered into a Separation Agreement and Full and Final Release of Claims with Kenneth A. Kalinoski, who previously served as Vice President – Development and Chief Technology Officer. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Mr. Kalinoski’s employment relationship with the Company was terminated.

On June 8, 2005, Forgent filed a notice to dismiss its suit against Microsoft Corporation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, without prejudice. On June 9, 2005, Forgent filed a motion to dismiss or stay the Microsoft Corp. v. Forgent Networks, Inc. and CLI suit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Forgent will continue to protect its intellectual property rights through licensing or litigation against Microsoft.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following review of Forgent’s financial position as of April 30, 2005, and July 31, 2004, and for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 2005 AND 2004

Revenues

Revenues for the three months ended April 30, 2005 were $1.2 million, an increase of $0.4 million, or 45%, from the $0.8 million reported for the three months ended April 30, 2004. Revenues for the nine months ended April

30, 2005 were $9.2 million, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 18%, from the $11.3 million reported for the nine months ended April 30, 2004. Consolidated revenues represent the combined revenues including sales of Forgent’s software products, installation and training, and software maintenance services, as well as royalties received from licensing the Company’s intellectual property.

Intellectual Property Licensing Business

Intellectual property licensing revenues increased by $0.3 million, or 125%, to $0.6 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 from $0.3 million for the three months ended April 30, 2004. Intellectual property licensing revenues decreased by $1.6 million, or 18%, to $7.3 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 from $8.9 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2004. Intellectual property licensing revenues as a percentage of total revenues were 51% and 33% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Intellectual property licensing revenues as a percentage of total revenues were 79% and 79% for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. As of April 30, 2005, the Company’s Patent Licensing Program has generated $101.9 million in aggregate licensing revenues. These licensing revenues relate to one-time intellectual property license agreements for Forgent’s data compression technology embodied in U.S. Patent No. 4,698,672 (the “‘672 patent”) and its foreign counterparts, which cover several types of products including many digital cameras, personal computers, camera cell phones, scanners, printing devices, video cameras, rendering devices and other technologies. Licensing of the ‘672 patent is currently conducted through the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Compression Labs, Inc. (“CLI”). The Company does not anticipate any additional intellectual property licensing revenue from its current licensees, but Forgent will continue to actively seek new licenses from its ‘672 patent as well as licensing opportunities from other patents in its intellectual property portfolio.

The timing of signing license agreements as well as the variable amount of each license fee continues to pose forecasting challenges. Additionally, the inherent variability of the licensing program causes peaks and valleys in the program’s financial performance. The $0.3 million increase and the $1.6 million decrease in intellectual property licensing revenues during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004, are due to the change in the number of agreements signed as well as the amount of each license fee received during these periods, respectively. Since April 2004, CLI has initiated litigation against multiple companies for infringement of its ‘672 patent (the “‘672 Litigation”). See Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings.”

Additionally, Forgent changed its legal counsel in the ‘672 Litigation at the end of October 2004. Under the leadership of Forgent’s new legal counsel, the Company’s Patent Licensing Program has two separate licensing and litigation teams, each team focusing on its respective tasks and goals. During May 2005, the licensing team contacted approximately 900 unlicensed companies using the patented technology. To date, over 1,100 companies have been contacted and Forgent’s licensing team is in varying stages of discussions and negotiations with several of these companies. Forgent’s licensing strategy is to achieve fair market-based licensing royalties. Therefore, during the negotiations with these identified companies, management does not anticipate significantly discounting any royalty for the sole purpose of obtaining licensing revenues in any particular quarter.

In February 2005, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation ordered the eight actions related to the ‘672 Litigation to be centralized and transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. In April 2005, Microsoft Corporation sued CLI and Forgent in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, seeking declaratory relief that the ‘672 patent is not infringed, is unenforceable, and is invalid, among other claims for relief. Also in April 2005, the Company initiated litigation against Microsoft Corporation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, seeking monetary damages, among other relief sought, for the infringement of the ‘672 patent. On June 8, 2005, Forgent filed a notice to dismiss its suit against Microsoft Corporation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, without prejudice. On June 9, 2005, Forgent filed a motion to dismiss or stay the Microsoft Corp. v. Forgent Networks, Inc. and CLI suit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Forgent will continue to protect its intellectual property rights through licensing or litigation against Microsoft.

During the next several months, Forgent’s litigation team will continue its efforts related, most importantly, to the claims construction process as well as to discovery and the exchange of various contentions. Claims construction is the process by which specific terms in the patent are given precise meaning for the case. Forgent will complete the exchange of proposed terms and claim elements, start on the claims construction discovery and submit claims construction briefs and related materials. The claims construction hearing has been set for February 13, 2006.

Although there continue to be uncertainties and risks related to the Company’s Patent Licensing Program, management anticipates its licensing program will generate additional intellectual property licensing revenues during the remainder of fiscal year 2005 as well as during fiscal year 2006. However, Forgent’s Patent Licensing Program involves risks inherent in intellectual property licensing, including risks of protracted delays, legal challenges that would lead to the disruption or curtailment of the licensing program, increasing expenditures associated with pursuit of the program and other risks that could adversely affect the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to effectively license its technology to other companies. Additionally, there are no guarantees that the Company can protect its intellectual property rights in its current litigation or prevent the unauthorized use of its technology in the future. However, Forgent will continue to seek to enforce and will pursue its rights through legal action when necessary. To date all of the Company’s intellectual property licensing revenue has been generated by the ‘672 patent. The U.S. ‘672 patent expires in October 2006 and its foreign counterparts expire in September 2007. Revenue from these patents is finite and Forgent is exploring opportunities to maximize the revenue streams from its entire patent portfolio.

Software and Services Business

Software and services revenues increased by $34 thousand, or 6%, to $0.6 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 from $0.5 million for the three months ended April 30, 2004. Software and professional services revenues decreased by $0.4 million, or 19%, to $1.9 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 from $2.3 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2004. Software and services revenues as a percentage of total revenues were 49% and 67% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Software and services revenues as a percentage of total revenues were 21% and 21% for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Revenues from this line of business include sales of Forgent’s NetSimplicity scheduling and asset management software products as well as the Company’s ALLIANCE enterprise meeting automation software products. Also included are software maintenance and support, royalties and services including installation, training and professional services related to ALLIANCE, such as add-on customization and network consulting services.

The $34 thousand increase in software and services revenues during the three months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2004, is due to a $0.1 million decrease in revenues from the ALLIANCE product line, which is offset by a $0.2 million increase in revenues from the NetSimplicity product line. Similarly, the $0.4 million decrease in software and services revenues during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the nine months ended April 30, 2004, is due primarily to a $1.3 million decrease in revenues from the ALLIANCE product line, which is offset by a $0.8 million increase in revenues from the NetSimplicity product line. During fiscal year 2004, Forgent experienced declining revenues related to ALLIANCE due to price sensitivity, lengthy sales cycles and integration with enterprise infrastructures. The Company decided to cease actively marketing and selling its ALLIANCE software products in the second fiscal quarter of 2004, which explains the $0.1 million and $1.3 million decreases in ALLIANCE revenues. In November 2004, Forgent sold its ALLIANCE software suite to Tandberg Telecom AS. See Part I, Item 1, Note 4 - “Sale of Assets” in the accompanying financial statements. After the sale, Forgent continued to provide maintenance and support to its existing ALLIANCE customers through May 2005.

Since acquiring its Meeting Room Manager (“MRM”) and Visual Asset Manager software products in October 2003, Forgent has continued to develop its NetSimplicity software products, has introduced new related products as well as new releases of existing products, and increased revenues from its NetSimplicity product line each quarter. The increased revenues are attributable to Forgent’s direct sales organization as well as the refinement of its marketing mix, including Internet marketing, direct marketing and print advertising. At the end of the second fiscal quarter, the Company released MRM 6.0, which includes an enhanced web-based interface and other feature enhancements requested by customers. This new release has generated positive feedback from prospects and customers. Additionally, Forgent introduced three new packages of MRM in February 2005: MRM Team, MRM Web and MRM Enterprise. By packaging the MRM software with certain capabilities for various levels of usage, Forgent has provided solutions that are easy to understand and allow customers to make quicker purchasing decisions. As a result, revenues from the NetSimplicity product line have increased by $0.2 million and $0.8 million during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004. Forgent will continue to target North American and international companies in the healthcare, education, legal, and financial industries, which generated approximately 57% of its third fiscal quarter’s sales. Management anticipates its NetSimplicity software business will continue to grow and the Company will continue to actively pursue sales to increase revenues.

Gross Margin

Gross margin for the three months ended April 30, 2005 was ($0.1) million, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 120%, from the $0.4 million reported for the three months ended April 30, 2004. Gross margin for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 was $3.1 million, an increase of $3.0 million, or 3,377%, from the $0.1 million reported for the nine months ended April 30, 2004. Gross margin as a percentage of total revenues were (7%) and 51% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Gross margin as a percentage of total revenues were 33% and 1% for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

When Forgent decided to cease actively marketing and selling its ALLIANCE software products in the second fiscal quarter of 2004, the Company recorded a $4.8 million non-cash impairment charge related to the capitalization of its ALLIANCE software development costs and certain prepaid royalties, which was recorded as part of costs of sales. Without the effects of the impairment charge, gross margins decreased by $1.9 million, or 38% for the nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the nine months ended April 30, 2004, respectively.

Without the effects of the impairment charge, the $0.5 million and the $1.9 million decreases in the Company’s total gross margin during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004, are due primarily to the $0.5 million and $2.6 million decreases in gross margin resulting from license agreements obtained during those periods, respectively. The cost of sales from the intellectual property licensing business relates to the legal fees incurred on successfully achieving licensing revenues as well as legal expenses incurred from legal counsel’s time in connection with the Company’s Patent Licensing Program. At the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2005, Forgent terminated its previous legal counsel participating in the Company’s Patent Licensing Program. Prior to this termination, cost of sales from the intellectual property licensing business only included contingent legal fees, which were based on 50% of the licensing revenues received on signed agreements. As a result of discussions following the termination, on December 21, 2004, Forgent entered into a Resolution Agreement with its former counsel and a letter agreement with three law firms who previously served as local counsel in the ‘672 Litigation. Under the Resolution Agreement, the Company agreed to pay its former counsel an initial amount of $1.0 million, 50% of the first $6.0 million in gross recoveries received on or after October 27, 2004 and 10% of all gross recoveries received thereafter. Under the letter agreement, the Company agreed to pay the three local counsel law firms an initial amount of $37.5 thousand, 7.5% of the first $6.0 million in settlements or judgments received from certain defendants and 1.5% of all settlements or judgments received from such defendants thereafter.

In January 2005, Forgent entered into an agreement with the law firm of Godwin Gruber, LLP (“Godwin”) to represent the Company as lead counsel in its Patent Licensing Program. Under this agreement, Forgent agreed to pay Godwin a contingency fee, net of expenses, once total proceeds from licensing and litigation exceed $6.0 million. Additionally, Forgent agreed to pay Godwin 50% of the firm’s standard hourly rate for time incurred. In May 2005, Forgent amended its agreement with Godwin, effective May 1, 2005, to change the contingency fee percentage amount to 22% and to establish a fixed monthly fee for time incurred at $0.2 million. Also in January 2005, Forgent entered into an agreement with The Roth Law Firm, P.C. (“Roth”) to represent the Company as local counsel in Marshall, Texas. In February 2005, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation ordered the eight actions related to the ‘672 Litigation to be centralized and transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. As a result, Roth’s and the three local law firms’ legal services are not currently required.

As a result of all the agreements disclosed above, Forgent’s cost of sales from its intellectual property licensing business for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005 included $0.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively, for legal counsels’ time incurred. These additional expenses in fiscal year 2005 caused the related cost of sales to exceed 50% of its intellectual property licensing revenues. Because of the fixed monthly fee arrangement with Godwin, management anticipates higher gross margins for the Company once the Company generates licensing revenue sufficient to cease paying its former counsel the 50% contingent fee provided for the Resolution Agreement. To date, all of the Company’s licensing revenue has been generated by the ‘672 patent. The U.S. ‘672 patent expires in October 2006 and the foreign counterparts expire in September 2007. When the ‘672 patents expire, licensing revenues may decline unless alternative sources are found. If licensing revenues decline, total gross margins will be adversely affected.

Gross margin for the software segment increased $9 thousand and $5.6 million during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the three and nine months ended April 30, 2004. The cost of sales associated with the software and services business is relatively fixed and currently results primarily from the amortization of the Company’s purchased software development costs and intangible assets. During the three months ended April 30, 2005, the software segment’s cost of sales increased by $25 thousand. During the nine months ended April 30, 2005, the software segment’s cost of sales decreased by $6.0 million, which is due to decreases in amortization and compensation expenses resulting from Forgent’s impairment of its capitalized software development costs and termination of certain employees related to its ALLIANCE software suite in January 2004. Without the effects of the impairment charge recorded in January 2004, the software segment’s gross margin increased $0.7 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2005. Since revenues generated from the software and services business directly affect gross margins and since management anticipates growing revenues for this segment, management expects gross margins from the software and services business to improve.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2005 were $4.1 million, an increase of $0.8 million, or 24%, from the $3.3 million reported for the three months ended April 30, 2004. SG&A expenses for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 were $10.4 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 7%, from the $9.7 million reported for the nine months ended April 30, 2004. SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 346% and 403% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. SG&A expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 112% and 86% for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

The $0.8 million increase in SG&A expenses during the three months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2004, is due primarily to a $1.7 million increase in legal fees, which is offset by a $0.6 million decrease in compensation expenses. Similarly, the $0.7 million increase in SG&A expenses during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the nine months ended April 30, 2004, is due primarily to a $3.1 million increase in legal fees, which is offset by a $2.5 million decrease in compensation expenses.

The $1.7 million and $3.1 million increases in legal fees during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005 are due to costs incurred in the ‘672 Litigation, the suit against the Estate of Gordon Matthews and in responding to the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) inquiry. Additionally, Forgent incurred approximately $1.2 million in one-time expenses during the second fiscal quarter related to the termination of its former legal counsel. Due to the favorable verdict resulting from the Matthews trial, management does not anticipate additional significant legal fees to be incurred from this matter. As Forgent continues to pursue licensing and litigating the ‘672 patent, significant legal fees will continue to be incurred. However, management believes the Company has the necessary financial resources to support all of its current and upcoming licensing and litigation efforts.

The increases in legal fees are offset by $0.6 million and $2.5 million decreases in compensation expenses for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005. During fiscal year 2004, Forgent restructured its software operations and terminated 33 employees in sales and marketing and seven employees in the general and administrative functions. These employment terminations, which relate primarily to the ALLIANCE sales force, led to the decreased compensation expenses in fiscal year 2005. Management continues to evaluate and reduce any unnecessary SG&A expenses that do not directly support the generation of revenues for the Company.

Research and Development

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2005 were $0.2 million, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 77%, from the $0.9 million reported for the three months ended April 30, 2004. R&D expenses for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 were $0.9 million, a decrease of $2.3 million, or 72%, from the $3.2 million reported for the nine months ended April 30, 2004. R&D expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 18% and 113% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. R&D expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 10% and 28% for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

During the three months ended April 30, 2005, Forgent released version 6.1 of its flagship software product, Meeting Room Manager (“MRM”) and is currently developing a new Catering Management module for

MRM as well as other new value-added modules. The Company plans to introduce these modules to the market during the summer of 2005. During the third fiscal quarter, Forgent also further developed Visual Asset Manager 5.5, targeted for release by July 2005. New features include support for handheld barcode scanners, tablet PC input devices and other improvements designed to meet the needs of large, multi-site organizations seeking to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other regulatory requirements.

The R&D expenses during the nine months ended April 30, 2004 are net of $0.9 million in costs that were capitalized. Software development costs are capitalized after a product is determined to be technologically feasible and is in the process of being developed for market. At the time the product is released for sale, the capitalized software is amortized over the estimated economic life of the related project, generally three years. As part of the Company’s efforts to restructure its software operations in fiscal year 2004, Forgent fully impaired its ALLIANCE capitalized software development costs as of January 31, 2004. As a result, no ALLIANCE R&D costs were capitalized during the three months ended April 30, 2004 or during the three and nine months ended April 30, 2005. Additionally, no R&D costs related to the NetSimplicity software products have been capitalized and management currently does not anticipate any to be capitalized for the foreseeable future.

The $0.7 million decrease in R&D expenses during the three months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the three months ended April 30, 2004, is due primarily to a $0.5 million decrease in compensation expenses. The $2.3 million decrease in R&D expenses during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the nine months ended April 30, 2004, is due primarily to a $2.1 million decrease in compensation expenses and a $0.6 million decrease in consulting, legal and other professional fees, which are offset by a $0.9 million decrease in capitalized software development costs as explained above. During fiscal year 2004, Forgent restructured its software operations and terminated 22 employees in research and development. Additionally, nine employees terminated their employment voluntarily in 2004. These employment terminations caused the decreases in compensation expenses during fiscal year 2005. Management will attempt to maintain R&D expenses at reasonable levels in terms of percentage of revenue and anticipates R&D expenses to remain relatively flat during the next fiscal quarter.

Impairment of Assets

During the nine months ended April 30, 2004, Forgent recorded impairment losses on its Consolidated Statement of Operations as follows:


	Intellectual Property Segment		Software Segment		Total Impairment
	(in thousands)
Prepaid assets	$	—	$	90	$	90
Capitalized software development costs		—		4,748		4,748

Impairment in cost of sales		—		4,838		4,838

Prepaid assets		—		10		10
Equipment		—		211		211
Goodwill		—		5,042		5,042
Leasehold improvements		161		22		183
Leases		1,123		420		1,543

Impairment in operating expenses		1,284		5,705		6,989

Total impairment	$	1,284	$	10,543	$	11,827

Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed,” and SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” Forgent evaluated the recoverability of its long-lived assets, including the equipment and capitalized software development costs, related to the ALLIANCE efforts. Based on the projected negative cash flows related to ALLIANCE, Forgent fully impaired the $4.7 million in net capitalized software development costs and $.02 million in equipment related to ALLIANCE. Additionally, Forgent impaired $0.1 million of certain prepaid assets that specifically supported ALLIANCE. Due to the decrease in software and services revenues and Forgent’s shift in its strategy for its software segment, the Company was also required to perform an impairment analysis in accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” As part of the impairment analysis, Forgent determined the implied fair value of goodwill based on a discounted cash flow model. As a result of this valuation, Forgent recorded a $5.0 million impairment of its goodwill related to its acquisitions of Vosaic, LLC and Global Scheduling Solutions, Inc. The technology obtained from these acquisitions supported the development efforts on ALLIANCE and its predecessor, Forgent’s Video Network Platform. The $10.1 million impairment charge related to ALLIANCE was recorded to the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended April 30, 2004, with $4.8 million in cost of sales and $5.3 million in operating expenses.

In January 2004, the Company closed its sales office in Melville, New York. Management was unable to sublease the vacated space and upon review of the future discounted cash flows related to this lease, management recorded an impairment charge of $0.1 million. Additionally, management analyzed the discounted cash flows related to its Wild Basin property lease and subleases over the remainder of the lease term. Although Forgent was able to sublease the vacated space more quickly than originally anticipated, the rates on the subleases were less than originally anticipated due to depressed current market rates. Therefore, management calculated the economic value of the lost sublease rental income and recorded an additional charge of $1.5 million. During the second fiscal quarter of 2004, Forgent also analyzed its recorded leasehold improvements at its Wild Basin property. This analysis indicated that certain leasehold improvements were no longer of value. Therefore, management recorded an impairment charge of $0.2 million related to these leasehold improvements. The $1.7 million impairment related to the Wild Basin and New York leases and the leasehold improvements were recorded as part of operating expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended April 30, 2004.

Other Income and (Expenses)

Other income for the three months ended April 30, 2005 was $0.1 million, an increase of $0.1 million, or 414%, from the $21 thousand in other income reported for the three months ended April 30, 2004. Other income for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 was $3.6 million, an increase of $4.2 million, or 696%, from the $0.6 million in other expenses reported for the nine months ended April 30, 2004. Other income as a percentage of total revenues were 9% and 3% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Other income (expenses) as a percentage of total revenues were 39% and (5%) for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

The $4.2 million increase in other income for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended April 30, 2004, are due to two events. During the second fiscal quarter of 2005, Forgent sold certain patents and other intellectual property and documentation to Tandberg. As a result of this sale, Forgent recorded a $3.3 million gain, net of expenses, for the nine months ended April 30, 2005. During the second fiscal quarter of 2004, Forgent recorded $0.6 million in foreign currency losses associated with ceasing the operations of certain international entities.

Income from Discontinued Operations

No income was generated from discontinued operations for the three months ended April 30, 2005 or the three months ended April 30, 2004. Income from discontinued operations for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 was $1.0 million, an increase of $0.4 million, or 77%, from the $0.6 million reported for the nine months ended April 30, 2004. Income from discontinued operations as a percentage of total revenues were 11% and 5% for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

In July 2003, Forgent sold substantially all of the assets of its videoconferencing hardware services business, based in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, to an affiliate of Gores Technology Group (“Gores”), a privately held international acquisition and management firm. As a result of the sale, the Company has presented this business as discontinued operations on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The $1.0 million in income recorded from discontinued operations during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, represents the final cash payment received from Gores in January 2005 for indemnity claims held in escrow. No indemnity claims were paid pursuant to the sales agreement with Gores. Details of this escrowed fund and other important information are set forth in the Company’s proxy statement for fiscal year 2002. The $0.6 million in income recorded from discontinued operations during the nine months ended April 30, 2004, represents cash received from Gores in January 2004 for purchase price adjustments related to the sale and related residual disposal activity. The Company did not conduct any business from this business line during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, or during the nine months ended April 30, 2004.

Net Loss

Forgent realized a net loss of $4.3 million, or $0.17 per share, during the three months ended April 30, 2005, compared to a net loss of $4.4 million, or $0.18 per share, during the three months ended April 30, 2004. Forgent realized a net loss of $3.7 million, or $0.15 per share, during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, compared to a net loss of $20.4 million, or $0.83 per share, during the nine months ended April 30, 2004. Net loss as a percentage of total revenues were 363% and 541% for the three months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Net loss as a percentage of total revenues were 40% and 181% for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Net loss decreased by $0.1 million during the three months ended April 30, 2005. Net loss decreased by $16.8 million during the nine months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the nine months ended April 30, 2004, and is primarily attributable to the $11.8 million in impairment charges recorded during the second fiscal quarter of 2004.

During the three months ended April 30, 2005, Forgent continued to strengthen its Patent Licensing Program by generating additional licensing revenues, adding Microsoft Corporation to the litigation process and making significant progress in transferring the ‘672 Litigation to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Forgent increased revenues from its NetSimplicity product line by 3% over the three months ended January 31, 2005 and by 51 % over the three months ended April 30, 2004. Additionally, Forgent successfully prevailed in its jury trial against the Estate of Gordon Matthews. However, uncertainties and challenges remain, and there can be no assurance that the Company can successfully grow its revenues or achieve profitability.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On April 30, 2005, Forgent had working capital of $15.9 million, including $20.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Cash used in operating activities was $2.7 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 due primarily to the $4.7 million in net loss, which was offset by $0.7 million in non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses, a $0.6 million increase in accounts payable and a $0.7 million increase in accrued expenses. Cash used in operating activities was $0.6 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2004 due primarily to a net loss of $21.0 million, which was offset by $11.8 million in non-cash impairment charge and $8.7 million in sale and decrease in accounts receivable. During the nine months ended April 30, 2005, Forgent collected $3.8 million related to its sale of assets to Tandberg. Management plans to utilize these cash receipts to invest more resources in its Patent Licensing Program, especially due to anticipated expenditures related to the ‘672 Litigation, and manage its software operations towards profitability. During the nine months ended April 30, 2004, the Company sold $1.7 million of its outstanding accounts receivable, without recourse, to Silicon Valley Bank and received proceeds of $1.7 million. No accounts receivable were sold during the nine months ended April 30, 2005. Forgent continues to conscientiously collect all of its outstanding receivables. The Company’s days sales outstanding decreased 11 days to 40 days for the three months ended April 30, 2005, as compared to the previous fiscal quarter. As of April 30, 2005, no trade accounts receivables had aged out past 60 days.

Cash provided by investing activities was $1.1 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 due primarily to $1.0 million in net sales of short-term investments. Cash used in investing activities was $3.8 million for the nine months ended April 30, 2004 due primarily to $2.3 million paid related to the purchase of Network Simplicity Software, Inc., a $0.9 million increase in capitalized software development costs and $0.7 million in net purchases of property and equipment. Forgent manages its investments portfolio in order to fulfill corporate liquidity requirements and maximize investment returns while preserving the quality of the portfolio. The Company’s current operations are not capital intensive and management does not anticipate any significant purchases of fixed assets during the remaining fiscal quarter of 2005.

As of April 30, 2005, the Company leased office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through 2013. Certain leases obligate the Company to pay property taxes, maintenance and insurance. Additionally, the Company used the proceeds from its notes payable to purchase equipment and fund operations. Forgent may periodically make other commitments and thus become subject to other contractual obligations. Amounts payable under Forgent’s leases and notes payable are as follows:


	Payments Due By Period (in thousands)
	Total		Less than 1 year		1 - 3 years		3 - 5 years		More than 5 years
Operating lease obligations	$	26,989	$	4,054	$	6,815	$	6,666	$	9,454
Notes payable obligations		694		376		318		—		—

Total	$	27,683	$	4,430	$	7,133	$	6,666	$	9,454

Approximately 96% of the Company’s operating lease obligations relates to its corporate office location at Wild Basin in Austin, Texas. As of April 30, 2005, Forgent had $3.1 million in future minimum lease payments receivable under non-cancelable sublease arrangements. Additionally, Forgent had a $1.6 million liability related to impairment charges for the economic value of the lost sublease rental income for its Wild Basin property.

Cash provided by financing activities was $49 thousand for the nine months ended April 30, 2005 due primarily to $0.1 million in proceeds received from the issuance of stock. Cash provided by financing activities was $23 thousand for the nine months ended April 30, 2004 due primarily to $0.5 million in purchases of treasury stock and $0.4 million in payments on notes payable and capital leases, which were offset by $0.9 million in proceeds received from the issuance of stock and notes payable. Forgent’s stock repurchase program allows the Company to purchase up to three million shares of the Company’s common stock. During the nine months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company repurchased 36,200 shares for $0.1 million and 137,085 shares for $0.5 million, respectively. As of April 30, 2005, Forgent had repurchased 1,790,401 shares and had the approval to repurchase approximately 1.2 million additional shares. Management will continue to evaluate repurchasing additional shares, depending on the Company’s cash position, market conditions and other factors.

As of April 30, 2005, Forgent’s principal source of liquidity consisted of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments balance of $20.0 million. Management currently plans to utilize its cash balances to focus on pursuing the ‘672 Litigation and funding its software operations and will consider potential opportunities in acquiring a growing and profitable public or privately held technology business or product line. Forgent’s ability to generate cash from its intellectual property licensing business is subject to certain risks as discussed under “Risk Factors – Licensing Program” below. Additionally, Forgent’s expenditures related to the ‘672 Litigation could continue to increase as discussed under “Risk Factors – Litigation” below. As previously stated above, there remain risks and uncertainties as to the timing of the receipts of license fees due, in part, to the inherent nature of a patent licensing program. Therefore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to limit its cash consumption and preserve its cash balances, and it is possible that the Company’s business demands may lead to cash utilization at levels greater than recently experienced due to the ‘672 Litigation, increased expense levels, potential acquisitions and other factors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and include the accounts of Forgent’s wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation. Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant estimates made by management include the valuation allowance for the gross deferred tax asset, contingency reserves, useful lives of fixed assets, the determination of the fair value of its long-lived assets, including its intangible assets and the loss from its impairments. These estimates could be materially different under different conditions and assumptions. Additionally, the actual amounts could differ from the estimates made. Management periodically evaluates estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements for continued reasonableness. Appropriate adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based upon such periodic evaluation.

Management believes the following represent Forgent’s critical accounting policies:

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. The Company recognizes software revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended by SOP 98-4, “Deferral of the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP 97-2,” and SOP 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2 With Respect to Certain Transactions,” and Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin 104, “Revenue Recognition.”

Intellectual property licensing revenue is derived from the Company’s Patent Licensing Program, which is currently focused on generating licensing revenues relating to the Company’s data compression technology embodied in U.S. Patent No. 4,698,672, and its foreign counterparts and is currently conducted through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Compression Labs, Inc. Gross intellectual property licensing revenue is recognized at the time a license agreement has been executed and related costs are recorded as cost of sales. The cost of sales on the intellectual property licensing business relates to contingent legal fees incurred on successfully achieving signed agreements, as well as legal fees incurred for legal counsel’s time.

Software and service revenue consists of license and service fees. License fee revenue is earned through the licensing or right to use the Company’s software and from the sale of specific software products. Service fee income is earned through the sale of maintenance and technical support, training and installation. The Company allocates the total fee to the various elements based on the relative fair values of the elements specific to the Company. The Company determines the fair value of each element in the arrangement based on vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value. When VSOE of fair value for the license element is not available, license revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the contract value is first allocated to the undelivered elements (maintenance and service elements) based upon their VSOE of fair value; the remaining contract value, including any discount, is allocated to the delivered element. For maintenance, VSOE of fair value is based upon the renewal rate specified in each contract. For training and installation services, VSOE of fair value is based upon the rates charged for these services when sold separately. Revenue allocated to maintenance and technical support is recognized ratably over the maintenance term (typically one year). Revenue allocated to installation and training is recognized upon completion of these services due to their short-term nature. The Company’s training and installation services are not essential to the functionality of its products as such services can be provided by a third party or the customers themselves. For instances in which VSOE cannot be determined for undelivered elements, and these undelivered elements do not provide significant customization or modification of its software product, Forgent recognizes the entire contract amount ratably over the period during which the services are expected to be performed.

The Company does not recognize revenue for agreements with rights of return, refundable fees, cancellation rights or acceptance clauses until such rights of return, refund or cancellation have expired or acceptance has occurred. The Company’s arrangements with resellers do not allow for any rights of return.

Deferred revenue includes amounts received from customers in excess of revenue recognized, and is comprised of deferred maintenance, service and other revenue. Deferred revenues are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations over the terms of the arrangements, primarily ranging from one to three years.

Impairment of Goodwill, Intangible Assets and Long-Lived Assets

Since goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer required to be amortized under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” the Company reviews its goodwill and these intangible assets for possible impairment on an annual basis, or whenever specific events warrant. Events that may create an impairment review include, but are not limited to, significant and sustained decline in the Company’s stock price or market capitalization, significant underperformance of operating units and significant changes in market conditions and trends. Forgent uses a two-step process and a discounted cash flow model to evaluate its assets for impairment. If the carrying amount of the goodwill or asset exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess during that fiscal period. Intangible assets that are not deemed to have indefinite lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives and are tested for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Forgent reviews and evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, including those noted above, the Company compares the assets’ carrying amounts against the estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets over their estimated useful lives. If the carrying amounts are greater than the fair value of those assets, the excess is recorded as an impairment in that fiscal period.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment,” which supersedes Accounting Principle Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” This pronouncement eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using APB Opinion No. 25 and requires share-based compensation to employees, including employee stock options and similar awards, to be measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date using either the Black-Scholes or a binomial option-pricing model. The value of the awards is recognized as compensation expense on the statement of operations over the vesting period of the awards. Forgent currently does not expense its share-based compensation based upon the fair value method, but discloses the effect of these items as required by SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148. See Note 10 -”Stock Based Compensation.” SFAS No. 123R is effective for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Based on current stock options granted, management will continue using the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of its options and anticipates it will incur compensation expense of approximately $0.1 million - $0.2 million per quarter upon adoption of this standard during the first fiscal quarter of 2006.

RISK FACTORS

There are many factors that affect the Company’s business, prospects, liquidity and the results of its operations, some of which are beyond the control of the Company. The following is a discussion of some, but not all, of these and other important risk factors that may cause the actual results of the Company’s operations in future periods to differ materially from those currently expected or desired. Additional risks not presently known to management or risks that are currently believed to be immaterial, but which may become more material, may also affect the Company’s business prospects and results of operations.

Licensing Program

The Company’s Patent Licensing Program involves risks inherent in licensing intellectual property, including risks of protracted delays, legal challenges that would lead to disruption or curtailment of the program, increasing expenditures associated with the pursuit of the program and other risks that could adversely affect the Company. Thus, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to license its technology to others. See Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” for information regarding the commencement by the Federal Trade Commission of a non-public investigation associated with the Company’s Patent Licensing Program. If the

Company fails to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors, the market price of Forgent’s common stock may decrease significantly. Quarterly operating results may fail to meet these expectations for a number of reasons, including the unwillingness or inability of licensees to pay for the license and other fees, a decline in the demand for the Company’s patented technology, higher than expected operating expenses and license delays due to legal and other factors. Additionally, there are no guarantees that the Company can protect its intellectual property rights in its current litigation or prevent the unauthorized use of its technology in the future. However, Forgent will continue to seek to enforce and will pursue its rights through the legal system when necessary.

Litigation

The Company has initiated the ‘672 Litigation against multiple companies for infringement of its ‘672 patent. As with any litigation, the outcome is uncertain, and although the Company intends to vigorously pursue its claims, there can be no assurance or certainty that the Company will prevail. The litigation will be lengthy and costly. Additionally, unintended consequences of the Company’s initiating the ‘672 Litigation may adversely affect the Company’s business, including, without limitation, that the Company may have to devote significant time and financial resources to pursuing the ‘672 Litigation, that the Company may become subject to counterclaims or lawsuits and that the expenses of pursuing the ‘672 Litigation could increase based upon new developments occurring. These, and other factors not currently known to or deemed material by management, could have a material and adverse impact on the Company’s business, prospects, liquidity and results of operations.

Licensing Cycle

Forgent’s licensing cycle for its Patent Licensing Program is lengthy and costly, including expenditures related to various consultant fees, travel costs and legal costs. Due to multiple negotiations and legal due diligence required, the licensing process cannot necessarily be expedited. As a result, the Company’s intellectual property licensing revenues may fluctuate from quarter to quarter, making it difficult for Forgent to predict its revenues, which could cause the Company to miss analysts’ expectations. Additionally, these fluctuations and missed expectations may lead to reduced prices for the Company’s common stock.

Counsel for Patent Licensing Program

The Patent Licensing Program is dependent on intensive legal due diligence and negotiations. On October 27, 2004, Forgent formally terminated its former counsel and has engaged new legal counsel to advise it in connection with the Company’s Patent Licensing Program. As of March 15, 2005, the transition in the provision of legal services to Forgent was completed. However, risks that this termination may cause delays in Forgent’s ability to proceed with its Patent Licensing Program, which could have a material and adverse impact on the Company’s business, liquidity and results of operations, may still remain.

Patents and Trademarks

The Company’s success and ability to compete are substantially dependent on its proprietary technology and trademarks. The Company seeks to protect these assets through a combination of patent and trademark laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions. These legal protections afford only limited protection and enforcement of these rights may be time consuming and expensive. Furthermore, despite best efforts, the Company may be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon or misappropriating its intellectual property. Also, competitors may independently develop similar, but not infringing, technology, duplicate products or design around the Company’s patents or other intellectual property.

Additionally, the Company’s patent applications or trademark registrations may not be approved. Moreover, even if approved, the resulting patents or trademarks may not provide Forgent with any competitive advantage or may be challenged by third parties. If challenged, patents might not be upheld or claims could be narrowed. Any litigation surrounding the Company’s rights would force Forgent to divert important financial and other resources away from business operations.

‘672 Patent Revenues Finite

To date, all of the Company’s intellectual property licensing revenue has been derived from the ‘672 patent. The U.S. ‘672 patent expires in October 2006 and its foreign counterparts expire in September 2007.

Revenue from these patents are finite and, if such revenues are not replaced, net income and the market price of Forgent’s common stock will decline following the expiration of the ‘672 patent or the resolution of the ‘672 Litigation.

General Economic and Industry Conditions

Any adverse change in general economic, business or industry conditions could have a material effect on the Company’s business, prospects and financial performance if those conditions cause customers or potential customers to reduce or delay their purchases of scheduling software and related services. Given competing priorities within limited budgets, businesses may choose to curtail their capital spending. If so, a general reduction in information technology spending could have an adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s software products and services and could result in declining revenues and earnings for the Company.

Software Marketing and Sales

The future success of the Company’s software segment will be dependent in significant part on its ability to generate demand for its software products and services. To this end, Forgent’s sales operations must increase market awareness of its products to generate increased revenue. All sales new hires will require training and may take time to achieve full productivity. Forgent cannot be certain that its new hires will become as productive as necessary or that it will be able to hire enough qualified individuals or retain existing employees in the future. The Company cannot be certain that it will be successful in its efforts to market and sell its products, and if it is not successful in building greater market awareness and generating increased sales, future results of operations will be adversely affected.

Increased Business from Current and New Customers

Forgent’s business model depends on the expanded use of its software within its current and new customers’ organizations. Therefore, Forgent must execute on its growth objectives, including growth from its acquired companies or assets. If the Company fails to grow its customer base or generate repeat and expanded business from its current customers, Forgent’s business and operating results could be adversely affected. Since the Company’s maintenance and other service fees depend largely on the size and number of licenses that are sold, any downturn in Forgent’s software license revenue would negatively impact the Company’s deployment services revenue and future maintenance revenue. Additionally, if customers elect not to renew their maintenance agreements, Forgent’s maintenance revenue could be adversely affected.

Software Development

Forgent expects that its future financial performance will depend, in part, on revenue generated from its existing and future software products and the related products that the Company plans to develop or acquire. There are significant risks inherent in any new product introduction, such as with Forgent’s NetSimplicity software products. To be successful, Forgent must be cost-effective and timely in enhancing its existing software applications, developing new software technology and solutions that address the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of its existing and prospective clients, and anticipating technological advances and evolving industry standards and practices. Forgent may need to invest further in research and development in order to keep its software applications and solutions viable in the rapidly changing marketplace. This research and development effort may require significant resources and could ultimately be unsuccessful. Such significant investment could adversely affect the Company’s operating results as well as its liquidity.

Additionally, Forgent cannot be certain that its existing or future software product offerings will meet customer performance needs or expectations when shipped or that they will be free of significant software defects or bugs. If the Company’s products do not meet customer needs or expectations, for whatever reason, the Company’s sales would be adversely affected and furthermore, upgrading or enhancing the Company’s products could be costly and time consuming. Such upgrades or enhancements could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and liquidity.

Quarterly Revenues and Operating Results

In the past, Forgent’s revenues and operating results have varied significantly from quarter to quarter. Additionally, management expects that revenues and operating results will continue to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. These fluctuations may lead to reduced prices for the Company’s common stock. Several factors may cause the quarterly results to fluctuate, including:

•

timing of intellectual property license agreements and related recording of licensing revenues;

•

timing and costs related to the ‘672 Litigation;

•

market demand for the Company’s software products and services;

•

timing of customers’ budget cycles;

•

timing of customer orders and deployment of Forgent’s software products;

•

the mix of software license and services revenue;

•

seasonal fluctuations in capital spending;

•

changes in the rapidly evolving market for web-based applications;

•

management’s ability to manage operating costs, a large portion of which are relatively fixed in advance of any particular quarter;

•

timing and costs related to possible acquisitions of technology or businesses;

•

costs of attracting, retaining and training skilled personnel;

•

management’s ability to manage future growth; and

•

general economic climate.

Some of these factors are within management’s control while others are not. Accordingly, management believes that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of the Company’s revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful. Therefore, investors should not rely on the results of any particular quarter as an indication of future performance.

Acquisition Integration

The Company has made, and will continue to evaluate and may make, strategic acquisitions in public and privately held technology companies. Some of these acquisitions may be in markets or businesses that the Company had not previously participated in and thus may require additional employees and/or skill sets that the Company does not currently possess. In addition, some of these acquisitions may be in regulated or other specialized industries. Some of these companies may also be early-stage ventures with unproven business models, have products that are not yet fully developed, or have products that have not yet achieved market acceptance. Any acquisitions of this type are inherently risky. Additionally, the Company may encounter a number of other risks associated with acquisitions, including (1) diversion of management’s attention; (2) failure to retain and motivate key acquired personnel; (3) failure to integrate acquired operations, products and technologies; (4) risks associated with unanticipated events, circumstances or legal liabilities; (5) client satisfaction or performance problems within the acquired business; and (6) amortization of acquired intangible assets. These difficulties could disrupt Forgent’s ongoing business, distract existing management and employees, require increased capital expenditures or increase the Company’s expenses and/or materially and adversely affect results of operations and liquidity. Accordingly, there can be no assurances that any of the Company’s investments or acquisitions will be successful, that the Company will be able to recover the amounts invested or that any acquisition would be profitable.

Key Personnel and Senior Management

Forgent’s success depends upon its ability to attract, hire and retain highly trained and experienced software developers and engineers to design and develop software applications in order to keep pace with client demand for rapidly evolving technologies and varying client needs. The Company’s operations are also dependent on the continued efforts of its executive officers and senior management. Additionally, Forgent will likely depend on the senior management of any business it may acquire in the future. If any of the Company’s key personnel or senior management are unable or unwilling to continue in his or her present role, or if Forgent is unable to retain or hire, train and integrate new personnel effectively, Forgent’s business could be adversely affected.

Technological Changes and Product Transitions

The technology industry is characterized by continuing improvements in technology, which results in the frequent introduction of new products, short product life cycles and continual improvement in product performance characteristics. If the Company fails to anticipate and respond effectively to these improvements and new product introductions, these improvements could render the Company’s products noncompetitive. While Forgent believes that its experience over the past few years as a provider of software and services and its prior experience in the videoconferencing industry affords it a competitive advantage over some of its competitors, rapid changes in technology present challenges and risks for the Company.

Competition and New Entrants

The Company may encounter new entrants or competition from competitors in some or all aspects of its business, including any business that Forgent may acquire. The Company currently competes on the basis of price, technology, availability, performance, quality, reliability, service and support. The Company believes that its experience and business model creates a competitive advantage over its competitors. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain this advantage. Many of the Company’s current and possibly future competitors have greater resources than the Company and, therefore, may be able to compete more effectively on price and other terms.

Limited Operating History

Although founded in 1985, Forgent has a limited operating history in its current lines of business due to the Company’s transition to a licensor of intellectual property and a provider of scheduling and asset management software and services. As a result of this limited operating history, Forgent cannot forecast revenues and operating expenses based on historical results. Additionally, the Company’s ability to forecast quarterly revenue accurately is limited because of the relative unpredictability of its intellectual property licensing revenues. The Company’s business, operating results and financial condition will be materially adversely affected if revenues do not meet projections and if results in a given quarter do not meet expectations.

Divestiture Transactions

As a result of Forgent’s transition to a licensor of intellectual property and a provider of scheduling and asset management software and services, the Company has divested certain non-core operations, including a videoconferencing endpoint manufacturing business, an integration business and a videoconferencing hardware services business. There can be no assurance that, having divested such non-core operations, Forgent will be able to achieve greater or any profitability, strengthen its core operations or compete more effectively in existing or new markets. In addition, the Company continues to evaluate the profitability realized or that is likely to be realized by its existing businesses and operations. Forgent reviews from a strategic standpoint, which, if any, of its businesses or operations should be divested. Entering into, evaluating or consummating divestiture transactions may entail risks and uncertainties in addition to those which may result from the divestiture-related change in the Company’s business operations, including but not limited to extraordinary transaction costs, unknown indemnification liabilities and unforeseen administrative complications, any of which could result in reduced revenues, increased charges or post-transaction administrative costs, or could otherwise have a material adverse effect on Forgent’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Recently Proposed and Enacted Laws and Regulations

As a result of assessing, implementing and complying with recently proposed and enacted changes in the laws and regulations affecting public companies, including but not limited to, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, management anticipates increased accounting, audit and legal fees, as well as increased costs for certain types of insurance. Additionally, the new and proposed rules could also make it more difficult for Forgent to retain qualified individuals to serve on its Board of Directors. Although management continually monitors and evaluates developments with respect to these new and proposed laws and regulations, management cannot estimate the amount of the additional costs the Company may incur or the timing of such costs at this time. However, such increased costs could materially affect Forgent’s results of operations.

Due to the risk factors noted above and elsewhere in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” Forgent’s past earnings and stock price have been, and future earnings and stock price potentially may be, subject to significant volatility, particularly on a quarterly basis. Past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of future performance and investors are cautioned in using historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. Any shortfall in revenue or earnings from the levels anticipated by securities analysts could have an immediate and significant effect on the trading price of the Company’s common stock in any given period.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s primary market risk exposure relates to interest rate risk. Forgent’s interest income is sensitive to changes in U.S. interest rates. However, due to the short-term nature of the Company’s investments, Forgent does not consider these risks to be significant. For additional Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, reference is made to Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2004. There have been no material changes in the Forgent’s market risk exposures from those reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2004.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management of the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of this report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the date of the evaluation, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to the material information relating to the Company required to be included in its periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. No changes were made in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended April 30, 2005, that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Forgent is the defendant or plaintiff in various actions that arose in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters, including those discussed below, may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. With the exception of the proceedings described below, none of the pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party involves claims for damages in excess of 10% of the Company’s current assets for the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q.

Litigation of United States Patent No. 4,698,672

Between April 2004 and November 2004, Forgent’s wholly-owned subsidiary, CLI, initiated litigation (“‘672 Litigation”) against 44 companies for infringement of the United States Patent No. 4,698,672 (“‘672 patent”)

in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, seeking injunctive relief against sales of infringing products and monetary damages, among other relief sought. The defendants are Adobe Systems Incorporated; Agfa Corporation; Apple Computer, Incorporated; Axis Communications, Incorporated; Cannon USA; Concord Camera Corporation; Creative Labs, Incorporated; Dell Incorporated; Eastman Kodak Company; Fuji Photo Film Co. U.S.A.; Fujitsu Computer Products of America; Gateway, Inc.; Hewlett-Packard Company; International Business Machines Corp.; JASC Software; JVC Americas Corporation; Kyocera Wireless Corporation; Macromedia, Inc.; Matsushita Electric Corporation of America; Oce’ North America, Incorporated; Onkyo Corporation; PalmOne, Inc.; Panasonic Communications Corporation of America; Panasonic Mobile Communications Development Corporation of USA; Ricoh Corporation; Riverdeep, Incorporated (d.b.a. Broderbund); Savin Corporation; Thomson S.A.; Toshiba Corporation; Xerox Corporation; Acer America Corporation; AudioVox Corporation; BancTec, Inc.; BenQ America Corporation; Color Dreams, Inc. (d/b/a StarDot Technologies); Google Inc.; ScanSoft, Inc.; Sun Microsystems Inc.; TiVo Inc.; Veo Inc.; Yahoo! Inc.; Creo, Inc. and Creo Americas, Inc. Forgent has since settled with defendants Adobe Systems, Inc., Macromedia, Inc., Onkyo Corporation and AudioVox Corporation.

In three separate lawsuits filed in July, August and September of 2004, 25 of the defendants sued CLI and Forgent in the United States District Court for Delaware, seeking declaratory relief that the ‘672 patent is not infringed, is unenforceable, and is invalid, among other claims for relief. Additionally, in July and September 2004, two other defendants filed suit against CLI and Forgent in the San Jose and Oakland Divisions of the United States District Court for Northern California, seeking similar declaratory relief. Forgent and CLI moved to stay, dismiss or transfer the Delaware actions, asserting that all such issues should be heard in the U.S. District for the Eastern District, Marshall Division, rather than in Delaware.

On September 27, 2004, two defendants filed a motion with the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (“MDL Panel”) requesting the court to transfer the ‘672 Litigation to either the Delaware or California courts, where the actions filed by the defendants are pending. In October 2004, the Company filed its response opposing transfer of the ‘672 Litigation to Delaware or California and the remaining defendants filed a response joining in the motion to transfer the ‘672 Litigation to Delaware or California. In February 2005, the MDL Panel ordered the eight actions related to the ‘672 Litigation to be centralized and transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.

On April 15, 2005, Microsoft Corporation sued CLI and Forgent in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, seeking declaratory relief that the ‘672 patent is not infringed, is unenforceable, and is invalid, among other claims for relief. On April 21, 2005, the Company initiated litigation against Microsoft Corporation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, seeking monetary damages, among other relief sought, for the infringement of the ‘672 patent. On June 8, 2005, Forgent filed a notice to dismiss its suit against Microsoft Corporation in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Marshall Division, without prejudice. On June 9, 2005, Forgent filed a motion to dismiss or stay the Microsoft Corp. v. Forgent Networks, Inc. and CLI suit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Forgent will continue to protect its intellectual property rights through licensing or litigation against Microsoft. Although Forgent is currently unaware of any other suits against CLI and itself regarding the ‘672 patent, it is possible that other defendants, and/or other accused infringers, could file similar suits for declaratory relief.

At a proceeding on May 19, 2005, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California set the claims construction hearing date for the ‘672 Litigation to be on February 13, 2006.

Federal Trade Commission Inquiry

In December 2003, the Company received notification from the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) that it is conducting a non-public investigation to determine whether the Company may have engaged in violation of the Federal Trade Commission Act by reason of the alleged involvement of CLI in the JPEG standard-setting process during the 1980’s and very early 1990’s and its subsequent licensing of the ‘672 patent, which the Company believes is infringed by the implementation of that standard. If the FTC proceeds with an investigation and thereafter determines that the Company acted improperly, further proceedings before the FTC could ensue, which could result in a challenge to the Company’s ‘672 patent licensing program. The Company believes that CLI has not acted improperly and advised the FTC as such. In April 2004, Forgent received a Subpoena Duces Tecum (“Subpoena”) and a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) in this FTC proceeding. The Company responded in May

2004 by filing a petition to quash and/or limit the Subpoena and CID. In November 2004, the FTC issued a ruling denying Forgent’s Petition to Quash, but modifying the Subpoena and CID. In February 2005 and March 2005, the Company responded to the Subpoena and the CID by providing the required documents and other responsive material.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

In April 2001 Forgent announced a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to two million shares of the Company’s stock. In September 2002, Forgent’s board of directors approved the repurchase of an additional million shares of the Company’s stock. During the third fiscal quarter, Forgent repurchased 36,200 shares under this program. All shares were repurchased in open-market transactions.
