EXPLANATORY NOTE



Due to the matters
discussed below, the Company is restating its previously issued financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000 and 1999. Accordingly, we are amending our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31,
2004 to restate our consolidated financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 and the related disclosures. This Form 10-K/A also includes the restatement of selected financial data as of and for the years ended March 31,
2004, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000, which is included in Item 6. Please refer to Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements included in this amendment on form 10-K/A in Item 15  Exhibits, Financial Statements, Schedules and Reports on
Form 8-K for a further discussion of the restatement. We have also made certain balance sheet reclassifications, as discussed further in Note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.



On May 2, 2005 the Company determined that at March 31, 2004, it had understated by $6.8
million a liability related to the accrued benefit of an employee sabbatical-leave program adopted in fiscal year 1999 which provides paid time-off to employees based on years of employment. The Company has concluded that adjusting the cumulative
effect of this item would be material to its fiscal year 2005 results. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the most appropriate way to correct this matter is to restate previously issued financial statements. The impact on previously reported
operating income as a result of corrections to the accounting for our sabbatical-leave program, excluding the related tax effects, is a decrease to operating income of $(1.6) million, $(0.9) million, $(0.9) million, $(1.3) million, $, and
$(1.4) million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.



In addition to the Company restating its previously issued financial statements for the employee sabbatical-leave program liability, the Company has also restated these financial statements for the impact of
re-measuring net tax liabilities due to changes in foreign exchange rates. This impact had previously been recorded in the Companys consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 based on the Companys
conclusion that this impact was not material to any period previously presented or to the nine months ended December 31, 2004. In addition, the Company is also restating its previously issued financial statements for certain other tax-related items
identified during the restatement process. The impact on previously reported results from the correction of these tax-related matters (including the tax impact of the sabbatical-leave adjustment) was an increase (decrease) to our income tax
provision of $(0.3) million, $(0.3) million, $1.0 million, $0.7 million $0.6 million and $1.5 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.



The cumulative effect of all these items at March 31, 2004 resulted in a $9.2 million
increase of our previously reported retained deficit. As a result of the restatement, our diluted earnings per share was reduced by $0.05 per share, $0.01 per share and $0.03 per share for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002,
respectively.



This Form 10-K/A also reflects the reclassification of certain
intangible assets on our consolidated balances sheets so as to present all intangible assets, exclusive of goodwill, in purchased and other intangible assets, net.



Except as discussed above, we have not modified or updated disclosures presented in the original annual report on Form 10-K, except as
required to reflect the effects of the restatement, in this Form 10-K/A. Accordingly, this Form 10-K/A does not reflect events occurring after the filing of our original Form 10-K or modify or update those disclosures made at the time of the
original filing of the Form 10-K on June 14, 2004. This Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the original Form 10-K, including any amendments to those
filings. The following items have been amended as a result of the restatement:



| |  |  | Part I  Item 1  Business;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | Part II  Item 5  Market for the Registrants Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities;

Overview



We are an independent software company providing software
that empowers designers, developers and business users to create and deliver effective user experiences on the Internet, fixed media, and wireless and digital devices. Our integrated family of technologies enables the development of a wide range of
internet solutions including websites, rich media content and Internet applications across multiple platforms and devices.



We were incorporated in Delaware in February 1992. Our principal executive offices are located at 601 Townsend Street, San Francisco, California 94103.



We file our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with the SEC electronically. The public may read or copy any materials we file with the SEC at the SECs Public Reference Room
at 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains a website that contains reports, proxy and information statements
and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. The address of that site is http://www.sec.gov. We also make available free of charge copies of our SEC filings and submissions on our website, www.macromedia.com, as
soon as practicable after electronically filing or furnishing such documents to the SEC.



Market Opportunity



Several broad industry trends in the development of software systems for corporations, government and educational institutions shape the market opportunities for our products.



First, the digital world has come to understand what the physical world has known for some time: great experiences build
great businesses. Organizations are increasingly focused on providing great experiences for their customers, partners and employees both in the physical and digital worlds.



Second, as technologies evolve to meet user demands, the web environment is evolving from a flat text oriented web to a rich
multimedia web with the use of images, animation, voice and increasingly, video.



Third, whereas, in the past, business users hired technical users to write to the web, trends suggest that business users increasingly want the flexibility to write to the web themselves. These trends are creating new
market opportunities for applications that facilitate the creation and posting of information to websites.



Fourth, the market for wireless and digital devices, including Internet-connected devices, cellular phones, personal digital assistants, game consoles and
home entertainment systems continues to expand. This expansion increases the opportunities for applications that build on these evolving platforms and user experiences.



Fifth, organizations are continuing to adopt internet technologies as a primary mechanism for deploying content and
applications to end-users. This trend began in the mid 1990s and is continuing today as more and more organizations recognize the benefits of using internet technologies to communicate and interact with employees, customers and partners, moving the
development of websites from smaller design firms to integral functions within Information Technology (IT) departments.

Sixth, large organizations are migrating existing business systems to a new generation of
application-server technologies such as Java application servers and the Microsoft .NET framework.



In the context of these broad industry trends, we believe there is a significant opportunity for software that makes it easier and more cost-effective to
create content and applications that provide great user experiences. Creating high-quality, responsive and effective interfaces for users requires a combination of client software for enabling the display of information and user interactions, server
software that can extend application server communications technologies to handle the unique needs of generating a high-quality user experience and development tools that can be used to design content, develop interactions and integrate content and
application functionality.



The current trends in the business
and government sectors continue to influence the long-term demands for specialized computing skills in the labor force. As a result, educational institutions in both the K-12 and higher education markets are seeking to incorporate technology into
their curricula that enables students to learn professional skills and gain general computer competencies through the use of software. The demand for technology in the education market represents another opportunity for us to sell our products
directly to educational institutions, instructional program designers and students.

Product Development



We perform the majority of our research and product development in the United States. Development teams or contractors in various countries perform
quality and assurance, testing, translation and localization of foreign-language versions of certain products.



The following table summarizes our consolidated research and development expenses for fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002:



|                                                                  |  |                                   |      |   |               |   |      |               |  |   |       |  
|----------------------------------------------------------------- |  | --------------------------------- | ---- | - | ------------- | - | ---- | ------------- |  | - | ----- | -
|                                                                  |  | 2004                              |      |   | 2003          |   |      | 2002          | 
|                                                                  |  | (as restated)                     |      |   | (as restated) |   |      | (as restated) | 
|                                                                  |  | (In millions, except percentages) |     
|Research and development expenses                                 |  | $                                 | 91.9 |   |               | $ | 92.4 |               |  | $ | 110.7 |  
|Research and development expenses as a percentage of net revenues |  |                                   | 25   | % |               |   | 27   | %             |  |   | 34    | %



In addition,
amortization of capitalized software costs related to purchased technology and localization activities of $4.4 million, $4.8 million and $4.3 million were recognized in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and included in cost of net
revenues.



Because the software industry is characterized by
rapid technological change, a continuously high level of expenditure is required to enhance existing products and develop new products. We believe that our future success depends on our ability to enhance existing products as well as develop and
introduce new products on a timely basis. It is critical that new products and enhancements keep pace with constantly evolving network infrastructure, internet technology and competitive offerings. We continue to adapt our products to new hardware
and software platforms in order to embrace industry standards and, therefore, we will continue to incur significant operating expenses in the future for product research and development. As part of this effort, we may, as appropriate, acquire
additional software and system technologies that we consider critical to meet the needs of web developers, business users and consumers.



Independent firms and contractors perform some of our product development activities, while other technologies used in our products are licensed from
third parties. We either own or license the software developed by third parties. As qualified development personnel are in high demand, independent developers, including those who currently develop products for us, may not be able to provide
development support to us in the future. Similarly, we may not be able to obtain and renew existing license agreements on favorable terms, if at all, and any failure to do so could harm our business.



Marketing and Sales



Our customer-related operations are divided into three primary geographic regions, North America, Europe and Asia Pacific
and Other, and are supported by global marketing and sales organizations. Through these organizations, we extend our brand worldwide through various marketing techniques, including direct mailing and advertising both on the web and in print,
customer seminars and trade shows. We also work directly with our distributors, resellers and OEMs on cooperative advertising, promotions and trade show presentations.



A substantial portion of our revenues is derived from the sale of our software products through a variety of distribution
channels, including traditional software distributors, catalogs, value-added resellers (VARs), electronic commerce through our websites, OEMs, hardware and software superstores and retail dealers.



Our ability to effectively distribute our products, particularly in the
international markets we serve, depends in part upon the financial and business condition of our distributor network. From time-to-time, computer software distributors experience financial and operating difficulties, particularly during times of
economic contraction and may do so in the future. Moreover, the changing distribution models resulting from our increased focus on direct sales to major accounts and the use of electronic commerce through our websites, may impact our distributor
network in the future.



One distributor, Ingram Micro, Inc.
accounted for 21%, 28%, and 28% of our consolidated net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. A second distributor, Tech Data Corporation accounted for 13%, 8% and 8% of our consolidated net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003
and 2002, respectively. The loss of these distributors or a significant reduction in business with these or other major distributor could harm our business.



We also sell our products directly to large corporate and educational institutions, typically under volume licensing agreements where customers have the
right to reproduce and use our software products. We expect that our direct sales force will continue to grow in conjunction with expansion in our Business User and Consumer markets.



8



---

##### Table of Contents

Internationally, our products are sold through our distributor network and directly to users. Sales
outside of North America accounted for approximately 44%, 42% and 40% of our consolidated net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In certain cases, distributors have exclusive distribution rights to certain products in their
respective territories.



We typically ship products shortly
after receipt of an order, which is a common practice in the computer software industry. As a result, backlog on any particular date may not be indicative of actual sales during any succeeding period.



Customer Support and Training



We believe that providing a high level of customer service and technical
support is necessary to achieve rapid product implementation that, in turn, is essential to customer satisfaction and continued license sales and revenue growth. Our customers have a broad choice of support options depending on the level of service
they desire. We provide free access to a wide range of technical information on our websites, as well as online forums for each of our products. For our Designer and Developer and Business User products, we offer complimentary 90-day technical
support for end-users who have registered their products with us via email or over the phone.



In addition, we offer a number of paid support and maintenance options for our end-users, including consumers, professionals and enterprise-level customers. These options include single incident-based support options,
annual support plans with configurable service levels, as well as access on a 24 by 7 basis to production assistance support. Optionally, these programs include Macromedia DevNet Subscriptions (DevNet) that we introduced in
March 2003. Our DevNet Professional program offers a comprehensive set of tools, servers, extensions, components and other resources over a one-year subscription period.



Our customers also depend on support from our worldwide network of VARs, OEMs, training centers and third-party developers.
We offer several programs that provide marketing, sales and technical support to augment services provided by our global partner network.



We offer both online and classroom-based training as well as formal certification for our Designer and Developer products through a worldwide network of
authorized third-party training centers and certified Macromedia instructors. In addition, training and instruction on the use of Macromedia products is provided by high schools, colleges and technical schools throughout the world. We encourage the
expanded use of Macromedia products for classroom training by providing approved curricula and through reducing the pricing on the products we license to schools and students.



Production and Suppliers



Production of our finished products sold primarily through distributors involves replication of the software, the printing of user manuals and product
assembly. The production and distribution of finished goods is performed by a third-party manufacturer. A significant amount of our product manufacturing is currently performed by this vendor at facilities located in the United States, the
Netherlands and Singapore. Our current vendor operates multiple facilities around the world that are capable of serving additional needs that we may have. In addition, these facilities could serve as viable back-ups in the event manufacturing
difficulties arise at the existing facilities used to support our business. Further, we believe there are other third-party vendors capable of fulfilling our production and distribution requirements. To date, we have not experienced any difficulties
or delays in the production of our software and documentation or in the distribution of finished products.



We also license and distribute our software products directly to end-users through a volume-licensing program. The management, tracking and fulfillment of
the volume license orders are performed by a third party at its facilities located in the United States and France.



In addition, we license and distribute our software products directly to end-users over the Internet through our websites. With an increase in revenues
derived from online sales, customer access to our websites affects the volume of software products we sell and thus affects our consolidated net revenues. A third party hosts the primary computer equipment and communications systems that we use to
run our websites. We have also developed applications internally that we use to run some of our websites and other non-customer facing e-commerce platforms. To prevent system interruptions and to ensure integration with our other business systems,
we, as well as our third-party service providers, periodically upgrade software, hardware and network infrastructures used in the operation of our websites to accommodate increased traffic and sales volume on our websites.



Competition



We operate in a highly competitive market characterized by market and customer expectations to incorporate new features and
to accelerate the release of new products. These market factors represent both opportunities and competitive threats to us.



9



---

##### Table of Contents

In the Designer and Developer market, we compete directly and indirectly with major vendors including
Microsoft, International Business Machines (IBM) and Adobe Systems, Inc. (Adobe). The web application development tools market is very competitive. While we believe that we are a leader in the market for professional web
development tools with Macromedia Dreamweaver MX, we face competition from Adobe GoLive as well as competition from mid-range products, such as Microsofts FrontPage. We believe our ability to compete favorably in this market in the future will
require continued product development and innovation to produce new functionality that can integrate with our existing products so that we can offer our customers a more comprehensive suite of products and solutions.



Our server products compete in a highly competitive and rapidly changing
market for application server technologies. We face competition from major vendors including Microsoft, IBM, BEA Systems, Inc. (BEA) and Sun Microsystems, Inc. (Sun). In addition, Macromedia ColdFusion MX competes with
several technologies available today at no cost including the PHP and PERL programming environments that are available for the Apache web server. Macromedia JRun competes with large Java application server vendors as well as products available at no
cost including the Tomcat Java Servlet Engine provided by the Apache Foundation. Also, our newest server product, Flex provides a solution to Java, C++ and C Sharp programmers wanting to deploy Enterprise class, rich web applications and leverages
the ubiquitous Flash Player technology. We believe our future results largely depend on our ability to innovate by developing new products and providing enhancements and upgrades of current product offerings that compete favorably with respect to
reliability, performance, ease of use and pricing.



Today our
client technologies, Macromedia Flash Player and Shockwave Player, command leadership positions in their respective categories. For animation and application user interfaces, Macromedia Flash Player is the most widely distributed web browser plug-in
worldwide. We distribute our client technologies through OEM agreements with a number of major operating system vendors and hardware manufacturers. For application development, Macromedia Flash Player faces competition from new vendors and
technology providers. The on-going success of Macromedia Flash Player could be threatened by new capabilities added to web browsers or by alternatives provided by major operating system vendors including Microsoft and Apple. We believe that our
existing market penetration and user acceptance provides our client technologies with a competitive advantage over other competing technologies.



Our Business User market addresses the needs of a much broader set of customers. Competition for the non-technical business user comes from a much broader
range of companies. Generally, these products target a specific business work flow such as updating content on a website or using the Internet to communicate with a companys customers, partners and employees. Companies in this market space
include Microsoft, IBM and WebEx Communications, Inc.



In our
Consumer market, there are many alternative and overlapping technologies such as Java, MPEG-4 or SVG, which may slow the adoption of our Flash Player. Additionally, there are a number of companies that are attempting to build competing or clone
animation players.



Proprietary Rights and Licenses



We rely on a combination of copyright, patent, trade secret and trademark
laws, as well as employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements, to protect our intellectual property rights and products. We generally license our software to end-users under shrink-wrap license agreements that the end-users accept
when they install our products or activate electronic versions of our products. Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights and products, certain of our intellectual property rights may not be successfully asserted in the future
or may be invalidated or challenged. In addition, the laws of certain countries in which our products are or may be distributed do not protect our products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States.
Furthermore, the enforceability of shrink-wrap licenses has not been conclusively determined. Our inability to adequately protect and enforce our proprietary rights could harm our business.



Policing unauthorized use of our software products is difficult. We have
dedicated resources to focus on software piracy and participate in industry groups to further police unauthorized use of our software. In addition, we are developing and implementing activation technology designed to reduce unauthorized use of our
products. While we have recovered some revenue resulting from the unauthorized use of our software products, we cannot determine the extent to which software piracy of our products exists. We anticipate that software piracy will continue to be a
persistent issue in the software industry.



Employees



At March 31, 2004, we had 1,213 full-time employees worldwide with 1,063 of
these employees located in the United States. None of our employees is subject to a collective bargaining agreement and we have not experienced any work stoppages. We believe that our relations with our employees and contingent workers are good. Our
future success is highly dependent on our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled employees.

All of our leased
facilities are leased under operating leases. We have an additional 16 field support offices in various locations within the United States, Canada, Latin America, Europe and Asia Pacific. All our support offices are leased with lease terminations
between 2004 and 2006. In aggregate, total lease obligations through termination for these 16 leases were less than $1.0 million as of March 31, 2004.



In addition, in August 2003, we exercised options to purchase three properties, which consist of a parking structure and two office buildings, and are in
immediate proximity to our current headquarters in San Francisco, California. We purchased two of these properties for $14.7 million and title to these properties was transferred to us as of March 31, 2004. For the third property, we deposited $2.7
million into escrow in August 2003, and paid the remaining $37.7 million of the purchase price in April 2004. These properties will serve as our corporate headquarters where we conduct various corporate, product development and operational
activities. We are currently utilizing the parking structure and expect to occupy the third property in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005. We expect to begin occupying the second office building based on future headcount and operational needs
subsequent to fiscal year 2005. We believe our facilities are adequate for our current and near term needs.



|ITEM 3. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
|------- | -----------------



From time to time, Macromedia is involved in various disputes and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. These include disputes and lawsuits related to intellectual property, mergers and acquisitions, licensing,

|ITEM 6. | SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
|------- | ------------------------------------



The selected consolidated financial data presented below is derived from our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto. This selected
consolidated financial data should be read in conjunction with Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto
included in Item 15 of this Form 10-K/A. Historical results are not necessarily indicative of future performance.



On May 2, 2005 the Company determined that at March 31, 2004, it had understated by $6.8 million a liability related to the accrued benefit of an employee
sabbatical-leave program adopted in fiscal year 1999 which provides paid time-off to employees based on years of employment. The Company has concluded that adjusting the cumulative effect of this item would be material to its fiscal year 2005
results. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the most appropriate way to correct this matter is to restate previously issued financial statements. The impact on previously reported operating income as a result of corrections to the accounting
for our sabbatical-leave program, excluding the related tax effects, is a decrease to operating income of $(1.6) million, $(0.9) million, $(0.9) million, $(1.3) million, $, and $(1.4) million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, 2000,
2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.



In addition to the
Company restating its previously issued financial statements for the employee sabbatical-leave program liability, the Company has also restated these financial statements for the impact of re-measuring net tax liabilities due to changes in foreign
exchange rates. This impact had previously been recorded in the Companys consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. In addition, the Company is also restating its previously issued financial statements for
certain other tax-related items identified during the restatement process. The impact on previously reported results from the correction of these tax-related matters (including the tax impact of the sabbatical-leave adjustment) was an increase
(decrease) to our income tax provision of $(0.3) million, $(0.3) million, $1.0 million, $0.7 million, $0.6 million and $1.5 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.



The cumulative effect of all these items at March 31, 2004 resulted in a $9.2
million increase of our previously reported retained deficit. As a result of the restatement, our diluted earnings per share was reduced by $0.05 per share, $0.01 per share and $0.03 per share for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and
2002, respectively.



Refer to Note 3 of the accompanying
financial statements for additional information on the restatement.



The following selected financial data should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
included elsewhere in this annual report. The selected financial data for each of the years in the three-year period ended March 31, 2004, and as of March 31, 2004 and 2003, is derived from our restated consolidated financial statements that have
been included in this annual report. The selected financial data as of March 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000 and for the years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 is derived from restated consolidated financial statements that have not been included in this
annual report. This Form 10-K/A should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the original Form 10-K, including any amendments to those filings.

|(2) | On April 1, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which is discussed further in Note
10 to our consolidated financial statements. As a result of adopting this standard, we no longer amortize goodwill. Operating income (loss) for fiscal years 2002, 2001, and 2000 reflects charges of $101.1 million, $5.0 million, and $0.9 million in
those respective fiscal years, related to amortization of goodwill, including assembled workforce, prior to the adoption of this standard.

the non-current portion of our deferred tax assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, a reclassification was made on the Companys consolidated balance sheets for fiscal years ended March 31, 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000 to reflect the non-current
portion of deferred tax assets as a non-current asset. Historically, the Company classified all of its deferred tax assets as a current asset on its consolidated balance sheets.

|ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the
five-year summary of selected financial data and the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A. All references to years represent fiscal years unless otherwise noted. Except for the
historical information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations that involve certain risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, statements
regarding the extent and timing of future revenues and expenses, customer demand, statements regarding the deployment of our products, statements regarding our reliance on third-parties and other statements using words such as
anticipates, believes, could, estimates, expects, intends, may, plan, should, will, would and words of similar
importance. These statements are predictions based upon Macromedias current expectations about future events and speak only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking
statements. Actual results could vary materially as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those expressed in these statements. Readers are referred to Critical Accounting Policies, Results of Operations,
Liquidity and Capital Resources, Risk Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations, and Disclosures About Market Risk sections contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and the risks discussed in our
other SEC filings, which identify important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Unless specifically noted, references to Macromedia in this Annual Report on Form
10-K/A are references to Macromedia, Inc. and its subsidiaries.



On May 2, 2005 the Company determined that at March 31, 2004, it had understated by $6.8 million a liability related to the accrued benefit of an employee sabbatical-leave program adopted in fiscal year 1999 which provides paid time-off to
employees based on years of employment. The Company has concluded that adjusting the cumulative effect of this item would be material to its fiscal year 2005 results. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the most appropriate way to correct this
matter is to restate previously issued financial statements. The impact on previously reported operating income as a result of corrections to the accounting for our sabbatical-leave program, excluding the related tax effects, is a decrease to
operating income of $(1.6) million, $(0.9) million, $(0.9) million, $(1.3) million, $, and $(1.4) million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.



In addition to the Company restating its previously issued financial
statements for the employee sabbatical-leave program liability, the Company has also restated these financial statements for the impact of re-measuring net tax liabilities due to changes in foreign exchange rates. This impact had previously been
recorded in the Companys consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. In addition, the Company is also restating its previously issued financial statements for certain other tax-related items identified during
the restatement process. The impact on previously reported results from the correction of these tax-related matters (including the tax impact of the sabbatical-leave adjustment) was an increase (decrease) to our income tax provision of $(0.3)
million, $(0.3) million, $1.0 million, $0.7 million, $0.6 million and $1.5 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.



Refer to Note 3 of the accompanying financial statements for additional information on the restatement.



Overview



We are an independent software company providing software that empowers designers, developers and business users to create
and deliver effective user experiences on the Internet, fixed media and wireless and digital devices. Our integrated family of technologies enables the development of a wide range of internet solutions including websites, rich media content and
Internet applications across multiple platforms and devices.



Strategy



Macromedia has been recognized as a leader in
multimedia and web development technologies for over a decade. Through our MX family of products, including Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks, ColdFusion and the Studio suite, we have enabled millions of professional Designers and Developers to
create rich, engaging, interactive web content and applications. Our growth strategy is to leverage the assets we have built in that core businessprincipally our technology, our brands and our worldwide distribution engineto grow into
even larger markets serving non-technical professionals. In fiscal year 2004, we began to see a return on our investment in these new markets, with the introduction of new products for two distinct markets: Business Users, who are
non-technical knowledge workers, trainers or business decisions makers who want to communicate and collaborate via the Internet, and Consumers, who increasingly expect a rich user experience on digital devices such as personal digital
assistants (PDAs) and cellular phones. Our strategy to reach the Business User is to provide complete solutions like Breeze and Contribute that leverage the power of our technology platform in an integrated delivery platform. To reach the Consumer,
we are licensing our Flash player technology to leading telecommunications service providers and consumer electronics companies that are embedding it in their devices to enable

Industry and Economic Overview



During fiscal year 2004, we observed some
strengthening in the demand for software products, with increases in several key indicators of demand such as broadband penetration, on-line advertising spending and broad indicators of IT spending. While the business environment showed some
improvement as compared to prior years, customer budgets remained tight and we note that corporations, government agencies, educational institutions and independent developers worldwide are increasingly focused on the return on investment they can
generate from their spending. Accordingly, we have maintained our focus on controlling costs, while continuing to invest in the research and development activities required to drive innovation and growth.



Product Update



In fiscal year 2004, we launched a significant number of new products and new versions of existing products, including new
versions of our MX family of products: Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004, Macromedia Flash MX 2004, Macromedia ColdFusion MX, Macromedia Fireworks MX 2004, Macromedia FreeHand MX 2004, Macromedia Director MX 2004 and Macromedia Studio MX 2004. In
addition, we added Macromedia RoboDemo 5, Macromedia RoboInfo 5, and Macromedia RoboHelp X5 to our product portfolio through the acquisition of eHelp Corporation (eHelp) in December 2003. We also launched Macromedia Flex, our newest
server product, in March 2004 to provide a solution for enterprise programmers who build and deploy rich internet applications (RIAs).



Financial Highlights for Fiscal Year 2004



| |  |  | Our net revenues for fiscal year 2004 were $369.8 million, a 10% increase from net revenues of $336.9 million in fiscal year 2003. This increase primarily reflects the growth in our
Business User and Consumer markets, the favorable impact of strengthening foreign currencies, and to a lesser degree, the impact of our acquisition of eHelp and the resulting addition of new products to our portfolio. Offsetting this increase, we
experienced lower than expected initial sales of our MX Products following the MX 2004 launch in the second quarter of fiscal year 2004.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our net income was $38.6 million in fiscal year 2004 compared to $1.0 million in fiscal year 2003. Operationally, we reduced our cost of net revenues from $36.1 million in fiscal
year 2003 to $30.7 million in fiscal year 2004, reflecting a greater percentage of net revenues from volume and Original Equipment Manufacture (OEM) license sales, which typically have lower material and distribution costs than our
traditional boxed-product sales. Offsetting this reduction in costs, our sales and marketing expenditures increased to support the launch of our MX 2004 products to $156.5 million in fiscal year 2004 from $145.3 million in fiscal year 2003. During
fiscal year 2003, we recorded an impairment charge of $15.7 million related to acquired developed technology and a $1.7 million charge for the write-off of certain intangible assets related to trade names which contributed to the increase in net
income in fiscal year 2004 as compared to fiscal year 2003.

| |  |  | Cash provided by operations in fiscal year 2004 was $43.2 million. During the year, our cash, cash equivalent and short term investment balances increased by $67.1 million from
$215.6 million at March 31, 2003 to $282.7 million at March 31, 2004. Significant non-operating uses of cash in fiscal year 2004 included the purchase of property and equipment of $25.7 million, including the purchase of land and buildings and $72.0
million for the net purchase of available-for-sale securities. Cash provided by the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of employee stock options was $55.9 million.

| |  |  | In the third quarter of fiscal year 2004, we completed our acquisition of eHelp, a provider of rich media help authoring software applications. The purchase price of eHelp was $66.4
million and was comprised of the issuance of approximately 2.4 million shares of our common stock valued at $42.3 million, $18.9 million in cash, and the assumption of converted options to purchase 0.4 million shares of our common stock and
transaction costs.

Net revenues are
comprised primarily of license fees, as well as revenues from maintenance, training, technical and other support services. Maintenance, training and other support services comprised less than 10% of our net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and
2002. Fluctuations in net revenues can be attributed to changes in product and customer mix, general trends in IT spending, as well as to geographic fluctuations and corresponding changes in foreign exchange rates. Further, product life cycles
impact revenues period to period as new products and versions are released.

Fiscal Year 2004
versus Fiscal Year 2003



Net revenues increased 10% from
fiscal year 2003 to fiscal year 2004. The increase in our net revenues in the current fiscal year reflects revenue growth from our product offerings marketed to Consumers and Business users, the favorable impact of strengthening foreign currencies
as more fully described below under Net Revenues by Geography, and to a lesser degree, the incremental product revenues resulting from our acquisition of eHelp, partially offset by lower than expected sales of our MX 2004 products
following their initial release in the second quarter of fiscal year 2004. Net revenues from our products marketed to our Business Users, including Breeze and Contribute, which were introduced during the last half of fiscal year 2003, comprised 6%
of net revenues for fiscal year 2004 as compared to 1% in fiscal year 2003. Net revenues from products marketed to Consumers consist primarily of royalties earned from OEMs for the license of our Flash technology for use on various mobile devices
and platforms and comprised 3% of net revenues in fiscal year 2004 compared to 1% in fiscal year 2003. The revenue growth in our Designer and Developer products reflects the favorable impact of strengthening foreign currencies, growth in educational
sales and net revenues from our learning and help products resulting from the acquisition of eHelp.



We have a history of introducing new or enhanced product offerings that impact our reported net revenues. For example, we released English language
versions of our primary MX products in the second quarter of fiscal year 2004 and foreign language versions of these products in the third quarter of fiscal year 2004. The initial demand for these products was below anticipated amounts based on
historical analysis of revenue performance following the release of earlier product versions. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004, we experienced revenue growth resulting from new versions of RoboHelp X5 and RoboInfo 5.0. Delays in the
introduction of planned future product releases, or failure to achieve significant customer acceptance for these new products, may have a material adverse effect on our net revenues and consolidated results of operations in future periods.

Fiscal Year 2003 versus Fiscal Year 2002



Net revenues increased 3% from fiscal year 2002 to fiscal year 2003. The
increase was primarily due to the successful launch of our new products and new versions of existing products. However, we also believe our net revenues in fiscal year 2003 were adversely impacted by the weakness in IT and web developer spending.



Net revenues from our Designer and Developer market grew 6%
from $300.3 million in fiscal year 2002 to $317.6 million in fiscal year 2003 due primarily to the introduction of our MX product family. Macromedia Studio MX, which was launched in the first quarter of fiscal year 2003, represented approximately
31% of our net revenues in fiscal year 2003. Although sales of Macromedia Studio MX resulted in a decrease in sales of our stand-alone products that are included in our Studio MX bundle, aggregate sales from all of our MX products increased by 13%
in fiscal year 2003 as compared to fiscal year 2002. This increase was partially offset by a decline in net revenues from server products, primarily Macromedia ColdFusion MX. Revenues from our server products decreased to $53.0 million in fiscal
year 2003, as compared to $60.1 million in fiscal year 2002. This decrease was primarily due to continued pricing pressures resulting from a very competitive market environment, partially offset by releases of new versions of existing products in
fiscal year 2003.

Fiscal Year 2004
versus Fiscal Year 2003



North American net revenues
increased by 5% in fiscal year 2004 as compared to fiscal year 2003, primarily reflecting an increase in net revenues from our business user products and to a lesser extent, the impact of our acquisition of eHelp in December 2004.



The 17% increase in international revenues in fiscal year 2004 as compared to
fiscal year 2003 is primarily due to the impact of strengthening foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar combined with the introduction of new product offerings in our Consumer market, especially in Asia Pacific. The strengthening of
international currencies relative to the U.S. dollar in fiscal year 2004 as compared to fiscal year 2003 had a favorable impact on operating income of approximately $10.6 million. Had exchange rates in fiscal year 2003 been in effect during fiscal
year 2004, translated international net revenues billed in local currencies would have been $13.9 million lower and operating expenses would have been $3.3 million lower.



Changes in the value of the U.S. dollar may have a significant impact on net revenues and operating expenses in future
periods. To minimize the impact of currency fluctuations on certain foreign currency net revenues and expenses, primarily denominated in the Euro, Japanese Yen and British Pound, we utilize foreign exchange forward contracts to provide greater
predictability of the affect of currency fluctuations on net revenue and operating expenses of certain forecasted transactions over our fiscal year. (See Risk Factors That May Affect Future Results of OperationsRisks Associated With Our
International Operations for additional information).



Fiscal Year 2003 versus Fiscal Year 2002



North American net revenues in fiscal year 2003 remained flat with fiscal year 2002. Increases in net revenues related to the launch of our new products and new versions of our existing products in North America were offset by continued
weakness in IT and web developer spending.



The 8% increase in
international net revenues in fiscal year 2003 as compared to fiscal year 2002 primarily resulted from our increased sales efforts in new international markets and from the launch of new products and new versions of existing products, partially
offset by the weakness in certain foreign economic environments in fiscal year 2003 compared to fiscal year 2002. The strengthening of international currencies relative to the U.S. dollar in fiscal year 2003 as compared to fiscal year 2002 also had
a favorable impact on operating income and revenues in fiscal year 2003 as compared to fiscal year 2002. The fluctuation in foreign currencies resulted in a favorable $4.7 million impact on operating income. Had exchange rates in fiscal year 2002
been in effect

Cost of net revenues includes cost of materials, royalties paid to third-parties for the licensing of developed technology, product assembly and
distribution costs, costs incurred in providing training and technical support to customers and business partners and costs to translate our software into various foreign languages.



Fiscal Year 2004 versus Fiscal Year 2003



Cost of net revenues decreased to $30.7 million and represented 9% of net revenues in fiscal year 2004 from $36.1 million or
11% of net revenues in fiscal year 2003. The 15% decrease in cost of net revenues in fiscal year 2004 as compared to fiscal year 2003 reflects a greater percentage of net revenues from volume and OEM license sales, which typically have lower
material and distribution costs than our traditional boxed-product sales. This decrease also resulted from lower inventory charges for obsolescence in fiscal year 2004 as compared to the prior fiscal year. The beneficial impact of our volume and OEM
license sales and lower inventory charges for obsolescence were partially offset by additional costs incurred to outsource portions of our e-commerce operations to a third party.



Amortization of acquired developed technology from acquisitions decreased to $2.0 million in fiscal year 2004 as compared to
$6.1 million in fiscal year 2003. The decrease was mainly due to the impairment of acquired technology from our Allaire acquisition during the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, partially offset by the amortization of acquired technology from our
eHelp acquisition incurred in the third quarter of fiscal year 2004. Following our acquisition of eHelp, amortization of acquired developed technology increased as we amortize acquired developed technology recorded as a result of our purchase over
an estimated useful life of four years. At March 31, 2004, the remaining acquired developed technology balance is $9.9 million, which will be amortized through fiscal year 2008.



In the future, cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues may be impacted by the mix of product sales, royalty rates
for licensed technology and the geographic distribution of sales.



Fiscal Year 2003 versus Fiscal Year 2002



Cost
of net revenues was $36.1 million or 11% of net revenues in fiscal year 2003, as compared to $44.1 million or 14% of net revenues in fiscal year 2002. Cost of net revenues decreased as a percentage of net revenues in fiscal year 2003 as compared to
fiscal year 2002 due to decreases in cost of materials, training costs and royalties paid to third-parties for the licensing of developed technology. In addition, during fiscal year 2003, we had a greater percentage of net revenues from volume
license sales, which have a higher gross margin than our traditional box-product sales. These savings were partially offset by an increase in inventory charges for obsolescence of $2.0 million in fiscal year 2003 as compared to the prior fiscal year
due to the launch of the MX product family.



In the second
quarter of fiscal year 2003, we performed an impairment analysis on the acquired developed technology asset associated with our acquisition of Allaire Corporation (Allaire) in fiscal year 2001 under SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the
Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. As a result of this analysis, we recorded an impairment charge of $15.7 million, which represented the amount by which the carrying value of the acquired developed technology
asset exceeded its net realizable value.



Amortization of
acquired developed technology decreased to $6.1 million in fiscal year 2003 as compared to $11.3 million in fiscal year 2002. The decrease was mainly due to the impairment of acquired technology from our Allaire acquisition recorded during the
second quarter of fiscal year 2003.

Sales and
Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of the following: compensation and benefits, marketing and advertising expenses, activities which support product launches and direct sales efforts, including travel, and allocated
expenses for our facilities and IT infrastructure to support marketing activities. Sales and marketing expenses increased $11.2 million to $156.5 million in fiscal year 2004 from $145.3 million in fiscal year 2003. The increase primarily resulted
from an increase in compensation-related expense resulting from an increase in headcount, higher net revenues and increases in product marketing and advertising activities. Compensation-related expenses increased $7.7 million in fiscal year 2004
compared to fiscal year 2003 resulting from an increase in headcount and higher commissions related to increased net revenues and the costs associated with our acquisition of eHelp in December 2003. Product marketing and advertising expenditures
increased $2.3 million in fiscal year 2004 compared to fiscal year 2003 reflecting higher expenditures related to the launch of Macromedia Studio MX 2004 as compared to marketing expenditures related to the launch of Macromedia MX in the prior
fiscal year and expenditures related to the launch of RoboHelp X5 and RoboInfo 5.0. In addition, travel and other expenses related to higher sales volume and product launch-related activities increased by $2.4 million in fiscal year 2004 from fiscal
year 2003.



Sales and marketing expenses decreased $26.0
million to $145.3 million in fiscal year 2003, as compared to $171.3 million in fiscal year 2002. The decrease is primarily due to reductions in allocated facility and IT expenses of $9.9 million resulting from our fiscal year 2002 restructuring and
lower compensation expenses of $7.5 million.

continue investing in sales and marketing of our products as we continue to launch and sell new products, develop market opportunities and promote our competitive position. As a result, we expect sales and marketing expenses to continue to
constitute a significant portion of our overall spending.



Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits as well as allocated expenses for our facilities and IT infrastructure to support product development.



Research and development expenses decreased $0.5 million to $91.9 million in
fiscal year 2004 from $92.4 million in fiscal year 2003. The decrease primarily resulted from a reduction in depreciation expense and facilities charges of $2.4 million in fiscal year 2004 as compared to fiscal year 2003. In addition, compensation
charges decreased by $0.9 million from fiscal year 2003 to fiscal year 2004 due to lower average headcount in the current period. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in contract personnel and temporary labor spending of $2.7 million
primarily related to the introduction of the MX 2004 products in the second quarter of fiscal year 2004.

Research and development expenses decreased $18.3 million to $92.4 million in fiscal year 2003 from
$110.7 million in fiscal year 2002. The decrease resulted primarily from a reduction in allocated facility and IT expenses of $10.1 million resulting from our fiscal year 2002 restructuring and lower compensation expenses of $8.7 million.



During fiscal year 2004, we released version upgrades to our
MX family of products as well as introduced Macromedia Flex in March 2004. We anticipate continuing to invest significant resources into research and development activities in order to develop new products, enhance the technology in our existing
products and to develop new technologies.



General and
Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits, fees for professional services and allocated expenses for our facilities and IT infrastructure to support general and administrative
activities.



General and administrative expenses increased $1.4
million to $37.6 million in fiscal year 2004 from $36.2 million in fiscal year 2003. Compensation-related expenses increased $2.5 million in fiscal year 2004 compared to fiscal year 2003 resulting from an increase in headcount, primarily in
compliance functions. Other employee costs, which include temporary staffing, training, recruiting and relocation costs, also increased by $1.2 million in fiscal year 2004 compared to fiscal year 2003 as a result of supporting increased staffing
needs. Partially offsetting these increases, professional legal fees decreased by $3.1 million from fiscal year 2003 to fiscal year 2004 following the settlement of certain legal matters (see Litigation Settlements).



General and administrative expenses decreased $7.7 million to $36.2 million
in fiscal year 2003 as compared to $43.9 million in fiscal year 2002. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in allocated facility and IT expenses of $3.0 million resulting from our fiscal year 2002 restructuring and a $2.9 million decrease in
professional fees primarily related to various legal matters settled in fiscal year 2002.



We anticipate that general and administrative expenses in the near future will continue to include costs to comply with newly-proposed and enacted rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and the NASDAQ stock
market, including costs to hire additional personnel and use additional accounting and advisory services.



Amortization and Impairment of Intangible Assets. We amortize intangible assets with estimated useful lives. Amortization of intangible
assets decreased to $1.1 million in fiscal year 2004 as compared to $1.6 million in fiscal year 2003. The decrease was mainly due to the impairment of certain intangible assets recorded during the second quarter of fiscal year 2003 as more fully
described below, partially offset by the amortization of intangible assets recorded as a result of our eHelp acquisition in the third quarter of fiscal year 2004.



Amortization of intangible assets decreased to $1.6 million in fiscal year 2003 as compared to $103.2 million in fiscal year
2002. The decrease was mainly due to our adoption of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on April 1, 2002 following which goodwill is no longer amortized.



Following the results obtained from our impairment analysis of our acquired developed technology asset in the second quarter
of fiscal year 2003 (see discussion in Cost of revenues), we performed an impairment analysis on the trade name associated with our fiscal year 2001 acquisition of Allaire. We performed our analysis under SFAS No. 144, Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, initially comparing the estimated undiscounted cash flows of the trade name to its carrying value. As a result of this analysis, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.7 million for the trade name
asset in fiscal year 2003. This charge represented the amount by which the carrying value of the trade name asset exceeded its fair value, estimated by calculating its discounted cash flows.



In-Process Research and Development. In fiscal year 2004, we
recorded $2.0 million of in-process research and development attributable to certain technologies in connection with our acquisition of eHelp. The acquired technology was recognized as in-process research and development as the technology had not
reached technological feasibility at the time eHelp was acquired and had no alternative future use. In fiscal year 2003, we recorded $357,000 of in-process research and development attributable to certain technologies recorded in connection with our
fiscal year 2003 acquisitions. Such technologies were recognized as in-process research and development as they had not reached technological feasibility at the time they were acquired and had no alternative future uses.



Restructuring Expenses. In fiscal year 2002, we executed a
restructuring plan to deliver cost synergies associated with our fiscal year 2001 acquisition of Allaire and to better align our cost structure with the weaker business environment. The $81.8 million charge recorded as a result of the restructuring
primarily related to exit costs to cancel or vacate approximately 450,000 square feet of facility space held under our operating leases and to employee termination and severance costs.



Our restructuring expenses and accruals involved significant estimates made by management using the best information
available at the time that the estimates were made, some of which we have obtained and verified through third-party advisors. We

continually review our restructuring accrual to determine its appropriateness and reasonableness. No significant changes have been made to these estimates in
fiscal years 2004 or 2003.

Interest
Income. Interest income consists primarily of interest earned on interest-bearing cash, cash equivalents and available-for-sale short-term investments.



Interest income was $3.7 million in fiscal year 2004 as compared to $4.1 million in fiscal year 2003 and $6.5 million in fiscal year 2002. The decline
in our interest income in fiscal year 2004 and in fiscal year 2003 is primarily due to lower yields on our cash, cash equivalent and short-term investment balances as compared to the respective prior fiscal years, partially offset by higher average
balances of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.



Gain (Loss) on Investments and Other, net. Gain (loss) on investments and other, net includes the gains and losses on the sale or other-than-temporary declines in the value of our available-for-sale investments in the common
stock of public companies and on our investments in the common stock of privately held companies. Gain (loss) on investments and other, net was $0.9 million in fiscal years 2004 and 2003 and $(7.0) million in fiscal year 2002.



Historically, we held common stock in public companies that were accounted
for as available-for-sale investments. It is our policy to record impairment losses on investments in publicly-traded equity securities when it is determined that there has been a decline in the fair market value of the investment that is
other-than-temporary. We have recorded realized gains and losses upon the subsequent sales of these publicly-traded equity securities determined as the difference between the sales price and the carrying value in fiscal years 2004 and 2003. At March
31, 2004, we no longer held any available-for-sale investments in the common stock of public companies.



We have also historically held investments in the common and preferred stock of certain privately-held companies that are accounted for under the cost
method, reviewing such investments for factors which indicate that declines in value may be other-than-temporary and recording impairment charges when declines in value are deemed to be other- than-temporary. These factors include evaluating, as
available, the cash flows and profitability of the investee, general economic conditions, trends in the investees industry and trends in publicly-traded peers of the investee. We have recorded realized gains and losses from privately-held
equity securities in fiscal years 2004 and 2003 at the time the investments were sold when such investments were sold at a value exceeding the carrying value and/or upon the receipt of cash proceeds from distributions made by the entity. At March
31, 2004, we held equity interests in several privately-held companies for which no carrying value was recorded on our consolidated balance sheet.



In fiscal year 2003, we also recorded a gain on the sale of acquired technology of $1.0 million. The net carrying value of the technology, which was
previously acquired in connection with an acquisition during fiscal year 2000, had already been fully amortized on its consolidated balance sheet as of the date of sale. This gain represented the net amount of the proceeds.



In fiscal year 2002, we recorded impairment losses on strategic investments
of $7.6 million. These losses represented write offs or write downs of the carrying amount of these investments and were determined after considering, among other factors, the investees current and projected operating results, including
estimated liquidation value and the inability of the investees to obtain additional financing. During fiscal year 2002, we received cash proceeds totaling $0.6 million, representing our portion of the liquidated assets of two investees whose
investment balances were previously written off during fiscal year 2001 in accordance with our accounting policy.



Loss on Equity Affiliate. We recorded losses from our investment in AtomShockwave, accounted for under the equity method, of $36.0 million
in fiscal year 2002. The charge reflected our share of AtomShockwaves losses recorded in the period, as well as the write-down of our investment and the write off of certain receivables in the prior fiscal year. Our investment balance in
AtomShockwave since September 30, 2001 has been zero. Accordingly, we have not recognized our share of AtomShockwaves profits or losses since September 30, 2001, although we held approximately 33% of the outstanding voting shares of
AtomShockwave



22

##### Table of Contents

at March 31, 2004. While we have ongoing agreements with AtomShockwave relating to distribution of the Macromedia Shockwave Player and use of the Shockwave
trademark, we have no obligation to fund or otherwise support the activities of AtomShockwave.



Litigation Settlements, net. In fiscal year 2003, we reimbursed $2.5 million to one of the insurers in a securities litigation against us and certain of our former officers and directors, which was
settled in fiscal year 2002. In fiscal year 2003, we also recorded a litigation settlement charge of $1.5 million related to securities litigation against us and certain of Allaires officers and directors. Partially offsetting these charges,
we reversed a litigation judgment charge of $2.8 million related to patent claims recorded in fiscal year 2002 following the subsequent settlement of the claims with no payment obligation in fiscal year 2003.



In fiscal year 2002, we signed a stipulation of settlement with lead
plaintiffs that resolved securities litigation pending against us and certain of our former officers and directors since 1997. The settlement amount was $48.0 million, of which $19.5 million was initially recovered from insurance, net of
reimbursable legal fees. As a result, we recorded a $28.5 million charge as a component of other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations during fiscal year 2002. Of the $19.5 million of insurance coverage, we subsequently paid
$2.5 million to RLI Corporation as a result of the RLI settlement in fiscal year 2003. In fiscal year 2002, we also recorded a charge of $2.8 million, relating to the settlement of outstanding patent claims between Adobe and Macromedia that was
reversed in fiscal year 2003 as noted above.



Other,
net. Other, net, consists primarily of investment management and banking fees, foreign currency transaction gains and losses and other non-operating transactions not separately disclosed. Other, net, was a $1.0 million loss in fiscal year
2004, as compared to a $0.4 million loss in fiscal year 2003. We recorded a $0.4 million loss in other, net in fiscal year 2003, as compared to $0.1 million in fiscal year 2002. The increase in the loss of other, net, is primarily due to the impact
of foreign currency re-measurement losses, principally related to those currencies that are not hedged and fees related to increased banking services.



Provision for Income Taxes.



We recorded income tax provisions of $13.1 million, $4.1 million and $2.9 million in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Current taxes are
primarily due to the effect of net operating loss carryforwards associated with purchase business combinations which are recorded as a reduction to our goodwill balance instead of our provision for income taxes, taxable income in certain foreign
jurisdictions where we operate and the impact of re-measuring net tax liabilities due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Deferred taxes are primarily due to a change in deferred tax assets, which are related to domestic temporary differences. A
deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been established and is determined by assessing whether it is more likely than not the Company will realize the tax benefits of its deferred tax assets in the future.



At March 31, 2004, we had available federal and state net operating loss
carryforwards of $519.5 million and $415.2 million, respectively. We also had unused research credit carryforwards of $29.1 million and $25.7 million for federal and California tax purposes, respectively. If not utilized, federal and state net
operating loss and federal research credit carryforwards will expire in fiscal year 2005 through 2024. The California research credits may be carried forward indefinitely.

At March 31, 2004, we
had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $282.7 million, a 31% increase from the March 31, 2003 balance of $215.6 million. Working capital increased to $227.6 million at March 31, 2004, a 47% increase from the March 31, 2003 balance
of $154.5 million.



Cash provided by operating activities in
fiscal year 2004 was $43.2 million, as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $42.3 million in fiscal year 2003. Cash provided by operating activities in fiscal year 2003 was $42.3 million, as compared to cash used in operating
activities of $40.7 million in fiscal year 2002. Cash provided by operating activities in fiscal year 2004 resulted primarily from adjusting our net income for non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $23.0 million, partially

##### Table of Contents

offset by an increase in net operating assets and liabilities of $13.2 million, including payments recorded against our restructuring accrual. Cash provided
by operating activities in fiscal year 2003 resulted primarily from adjusting our net income for the following: non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $31.2 million; impairment of long-lived assets of $19.2 million, primarily resulting
from a $17.3 million impairment charge of the intangible assets acquired in connection with our 2001 acquisition of Allaire; and a $1.7 million write-down of internally developed software that was previously capitalized. These amounts were partially
offset by a decrease in net other operating assets of $8.4 million, including payments recorded against our restructuring accrual. Cash used in operating activities in fiscal year 2002 resulted primarily from adjusting our net loss of $310.8 million
for the following: non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $155.7 million, reflecting the amortization of goodwill prior to the adoption of SFAS 142; a $36.0 million loss on our equity affiliate, reflecting our portion of the losses
incurred by AtomShockwave; and $24.7 million in write-offs of fixed assets relating primarily to our restructuring.



Cash used in investing activities in fiscal year 2004 was $103.3 million, as compared to $28.7 million in fiscal year 2003. In fiscal year 2004, cash used
in investing activities was primarily due to the net purchases of available-for-sale securities of $72.0 million and the purchase of property and equipment of $25.7 million, including the purchase of land and buildings. In August 2003, we exercised
the options to purchase property of three contiguous buildings in San Francisco, California for a total purchase price of $55.0 million. We funded $14.7 million purchase price for two of these properties, and deposited $2.7 million into escrow for
the third property in fiscal year 2004. The remaining purchase price of $37.7 million for the third building was funded in April 2004. In fiscal year 2004, cash provided through investing activities also included $15.2 million cash acquired in
connection with the acquisition of eHelp offset by $4.9 million in cash paid to the eHelp shareholders net of acquisition costs paid. In fiscal year 2004, cash provided in investing activities was reduced by an increase in restricted cash of $14.5
million for the establishment of escrow funds related to the eHelp acquisition. Cash used in investing activities in fiscal year 2003 was $28.7 million, as compared to $30.0 million in fiscal year 2002. In fiscal year 2003, cash used in investing
activities was primarily due to net purchases of available-for-sale short-term investments of $23.9 million, purchases of property and equipment of $6.2 million and cash used to pay for acquisitions of $4.5 million, partially offset by cash proceeds
resulting from repayments of non-executive related-party loans of $5.1 million. In fiscal year 2002, cash used in investing activities was primarily used for net purchases of available-forsale short-term investments of $34.1 million and
property and equipment of $17.4 million. These payments were partially offset by proceeds from the December 2001 sale-leaseback of an office facility in Redwood Shores, California of $22.1 million and collections on non-executive related party
loans.



Cash provided by financing activities in fiscal years
2004 and 2003 was $55.9 million and $16.4 million, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities primarily relates to proceeds received from the exercise of common stock options and purchases under our Employee Stock Purchase Plans. Our
liquidity and capital resources in any period could be impacted by the exercise of outstanding common stock options and cash proceeds upon exercise of these securities and securities reserved for future issuance under our stock option plans.



In fiscal year 2004, we made capital expenditures of $25.7
million, including the purchase of land and buildings more fully described above. In fiscal year 2005, we anticipate spending between $70.0 million to $80.0 million on capital expenditures, primarily relating to the purchase and build-on of a
building property more fully described below (see Purchase commitments) for which we used available cash of $37.7 million in April 2004. We expect that for the foreseeable future, our operating expenses and investing activities as they relate to the
associated costs of furnishing and improving our newly purchased office buildings will constitute a significant use of our cash balances, but that our cash from operations and existing cash, cash equivalents, and available-for-sale shortterm
investments will be sufficient to meet our operating requirements through at least the next twelve months.



At times, we may require additional liquid capital resources and may seek to raise these additional funds through public or private debt or equity
financings. There can be no assurance that this additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on reasonable terms and not dilutive to our stockholders. If additional funds are required at a future date and are not available on
acceptable terms, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.



We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce economic exposure associated with revenues, expenses and asset balances primarily denominated in the Euros, Japanese Yen and British Pound. At March 31, 2004,
the net notional amount of forward contracts outstanding in U.S. Dollar using the spot exchange rates in effect at March 31, 2004 amounted to $40.9 million (see Item 7AQuantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk for
additional information).

Operating Lease
ObligationsWe lease office space and certain equipment under operating leases, some of which contain renewal and purchase options. In addition, we sublease certain office space that we do not expect to occupy prior to lease termination.
For certain of these operating leases, we have entered into agreements to indemnify lessors against certain additional costs through the term of the respective leases. To date, we have not made any significant indemnification payments under such
agreements and no amount has been accrued in our consolidated financial statements with respect to these indemnification guarantees.



Obligations Included in Restructuring AccrualWe lease office space under operating leases that have been recognized in our restructuring
liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We sublease a portion of this restructured space. As a result, the restructuring liability on our consolidated balance sheets reflects our obligation net of contractual and estimated sublease income.
Obligations included in restructuring accrual in the above table reflect our lease obligations gross of contractual and estimated sublease income.



Property Purchase ObligationsIn August 2003, we exercised our option to purchase certain real property, including land, buildings and related
improvements, in San Francisco, California, for a total purchase price of $55.0 million. The new facilities, which are in immediate proximity to our current headquarters, consist of a parking structure and two office buildings. We have fully paid
two of these properties and title to these properties was transferred to us as of March 31, 2004. For the third property, we deposited $2.7 million into escrow in August 2003 and paid the remaining $37.7 million of the purchase price upon closing of
the purchase and upon transfer of title on April 30, 2004. We are currently utilizing the parking structure. We will begin building out the third facility at the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2005 and the remaining facility based on future
headcount and operational needs, which we anticipate occur subsequent to fiscal year 2005.



Other Purchase ObligationsOther significant purchase obligations represent minimum non-cancelable financial commitments made for which the respective goods or services have not been received as of March
31, 2004. The majority of our other purchase obligations relate to commitments related to information technology and telecommunication services.



Other Commitments



Letters of CreditWe obtained letters of credit from financial institutions totaling $9.4 million as of March 31, 2004, in lieu of security
deposits for leased office space. No amounts have been drawn against the letters of credit.



Intellectual Property Indemnification ObligationsThe terms of our distribution agreements with our first-tier distributors, including OEMs, and our license agreements with our direct customers, generally
provide for a limited indemnification of such distributors and customers against losses, expenses and liabilities arising from third-party claims based on alleged infringement by our products of an intellectual property right of such third party.
The terms of such indemnification often limit the scope of, and remedies for, such indemnification obligations and generally include a right to replace an infringing product. To date, we have not had to reimburse any of our distributors or customers
for any losses related to these indemnification provisions pertaining to third-party intellectual property infringement claims. For several reasons, including the lack of prior indemnification claims and the lack of a monetary liability limit for
certain infringement cases under the terms of the corresponding agreements with our distributors and customers, we cannot determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to such indemnification provisions.



Other Contingent Liabilities and CommitmentsIn the normal course
of our business, we have also entered into other indemnification agreements or guarantees that arise in various types of arrangements, including those with financial institutions under banking arrangements. To date, we have not made any significant
payments under such indemnification agreements or guarantees and no amount has been accrued on our consolidated balance sheets with respect to those indemnification agreements or guarantees.



Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements.



We do not have off-balance-sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities
or with related parties, nor do we use other forms to off-balance-sheet arrangements such as research and development arrangements. As of March 31, 2004, we did not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC
Regulation S-K.

Critical Accounting Policies



We make certain estimates, assumptions and judgments when preparing our consolidated financial statements. These estimates,
assumptions and judgments can have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements including the value of certain assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets as well as the amounts of net revenues, operating income and
net income on our consolidated statements of operations. We have identified the following to be critical accounting policies to Macromedia: allowance for sales returns; allowance for doubtful accounts, restructuring expenses and related accruals;
and income taxes.



Allowance for Sales Returns.
The primary sales channels through which we sell our boxed and volume-license products throughout the world are a network of distributors and product resellers, commonly referred to as value-added resellers (VARs). Agreements for boxed
products with our distributors and VARs contain specific product return privileges for stock rotation and obsolete products that are generally limited to contractual amounts. Product returns are recorded as a reduction of net revenues. Current
product returns for stock rotation from distributors are generally limited to 10% of their prior quarters purchases, provided they order new products for an amount equal to or exceeding the amount of the requested return. Distributors may, and
typically do, return 100% of their inventory balance of obsolete products within a limited time after the release of a new version of that software product. Under the terms of our distribution agreements, authorized returns of obsolete products
require a new order from such distributor at an amount not less than the amount of the requested return. Sales of our volume-licensed products generally do not contain return privileges. Products purchased directly from us by end-users, including
sales from our online stores, have 30-day return rights. As part of our revenue recognition practices, we have established an allowance for sales returns based upon estimated and known returns.



We review our allowance for sales returns on an ongoing basis. At March 31,
2004, our sales returns reserve totaled $5.1 million and included $0.9 million of requested and authorized returns by our distributors primarily related to our Studio MX product upgrade during fiscal year 2004. In estimating our allowance for sales
returns, we evaluate the following factors:



| |  |  | Historical product returns and inventory levels on a product-by-product basis for each of our primary sales regions;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Current inventory levels and sell-through data on a product-by-product basis as reported to us by our distributors worldwide on a weekly or monthly basis;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our demand forecast by product in each of our principal geographic markets, which is impacted by our product release schedule, seasonal trends, analyses developed by our internal
sales and marketing organizations and analysis of third-party market data;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | General economic conditions, specifically in the markets we serve; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Trends in our accounts receivable.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



In assessing the appropriateness of product inventory levels held by our resellers and the impact on potential product returns, we may limit sales to our
distributors and VARs in order to maintain inventory levels deemed by management to be appropriate. We generally estimate our allowance for sales returns based on channel inventory levels between four to six weeks of expected future sales by our
first-tier distributors and VARs, based on the criteria noted above. We make these estimates based on channel inventory and sell-through information that we obtain principally from our first-tier distributors and VARs. Product returns from our
first-tier distributors and VARs are also impacted by actual product returns they receive directly from lower tiers of distribution for which we receive limited inventory and sell-through information. In addition, our estimates are based on
historical product returns and channel inventory levels on a product-by-product basis for each of our primary sales regions. As a result, actual product returns in future periods may differ from our estimates and may have a material adverse effect
on our net revenues and consolidated results of operations due to factors including, but not limited to, market conditions and product release cycles. At March 31, 2004, our channel inventory, net of related reserves, remained within the estimated
channel inventory range noted above.



In fiscal years 2004,
2003 and 2002, product returns, consisting principally of stock rotation for obsolete products, totaled $28.3 million, $22.7 million and $27.8 million, or 8%, 7% and 9% of net revenues, respectively. In fiscal years 2004 and 2003, our product
returns were impacted by transition and upgrade cycles associated with the launch of our MX product family in the first quarter of fiscal year 2003 and the upgrade of our MX product family to MX 2004 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2004.
Similarly, fiscal year 2002 product returns were impacted by new product offerings. In general, we would expect the allowance for sales returns to increase following the announcement of new or upgraded versions of our products or in anticipation of
such product announcements, as our distributors and VARs seek to reduce their inventory levels of the prior version of a product in advance of receiving the new version. Similarly, we would expect that product inventory held by our distributors and
VARs would increase following the successful introduction of new or upgraded products, as these resellers stock the new version in anticipation of end-user demand, which would result in a lower allowance for sales returns.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We make judgments as to our ability to collect outstanding
accounts receivable and provide an allowance for a portion of our accounts receivable when collection becomes doubtful.



We also make judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on ongoing credit evaluations and the aging profile of customer accounts receivable
and assess current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. Historically, our allowance for doubtful accounts has been sufficient to cover our actual credit losses. However, since we cannot predict changes in the
financial stability of our customers, we cannot guarantee that our allowance will continue to be sufficient. If actual credit losses are significantly greater than the allowance that we have established, this would increase our operating expenses
and reduce our reported net income. Our allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $1.9 million, or 4% of gross accounts receivable, at March 31, 2004 and $3.2 million, or 8% of total gross accounts receivable, at March 31, 2003. The lower balance
of the allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of gross accounts receivable at March 31, 2004 as compared to March 31, 2003 was based on improvement in certain accounts receivable metrics, most notably the aging of our receivable portfolio.



Distributors account for a significant portion of our net
revenues and accounts receivable balances and comprise several individually large accounts. One of these distributors represented 21%, 28% and 28% of consolidated net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 19% and 16% of our
gross accounts receivable balances at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. A second distributor represented 13%, 8% and 8% of our consolidated net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and 14% and 4% of our gross accounts
receivable at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. If the credit exposure associated with a large distributor relationship increased, affecting its ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts may be required.
Historically, we have not experienced significant losses related to any particular industry or geographic region.



Restructuring Expenses and Related Accruals. In fiscal year 2002, we executed a restructuring plan to deliver cost synergies associated with
our fiscal year 2001 acquisition of Allaire and to better align our cost structure with the weaker business environment. The $81.8 million charge recorded as a result of the restructuring primarily related to facility exit costs to cancel or vacate
approximately 450,000 square feet of facility space held under our operating leases and, to a lesser extent, employee termination and severance costs.



Our restructuring expenses and accruals involved significant estimates made by management using the best information available at the time that the
estimates were made, some of which we have obtained and verified through real estate brokers. These estimates include: facility exit costs such as demise and lease termination costs; timing and market conditions of rental payments and estimated
sublease income; and any fees associated with our restructuring expenses, such as brokerage fees.



On a regular basis we evaluate a number of factors to determine the appropriateness and reasonableness of our restructuring accruals. Such factors
include, but are not limited to, market data in order to estimate the likelihood, timing, lease terms and rates to be realized from potential subleases of restructured facilities held under operating leases. We also estimate costs associated with
terminating certain leases on excess facilities. These estimates involve a number of risks and uncertainties, some of which may be beyond our control and include future real estate conditions and our ability to market and sublease excess facilities
on terms acceptable to us, particularly in Newton, Massachusetts, Northern California, Bracknell, United Kingdom, and to a lesser extent in Richardson, Texas and Minneapolis, Minnesota. In addition, our restructuring estimates for facilities could
be adversely impacted by the financial condition of sub-lessees and their ability to meet the financial obligations throughout the term of any sublease agreement. The impact of these estimated proceeds and costs are significant factors in
determining the appropriateness of our restructuring accrual balance on our consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2004. Actual results may differ significantly from our estimates and as such, may require adjustments to our restructuring accrual,
which will impact our operating results in future periods.



As
of March 31, 2004, our restructuring accrual balance included future minimum gross lease obligations for our restructured facilities extending through 2011. These future minimum gross lease obligations amounted to $69.4 million, which will be offset
by future sublease income of $38.9 million to be received under contractual sublease arrangements. In addition, our restructuring accrual balance is offset by estimated future sublease income of $11.9 million. The estimated future sublease balance
is impacted by fluctuations in the demand in commercial real estate markets where we have significant operating lease obligations, notably the Newton, Massachusetts commercial real estate market. Accrued restructuring costs related to the Newton
lease represented 56% of our total accrued restructuring at March 31, 2004. Our Newton space covers 348,000 square feet held under operating leases through 2010, of which we currently occupy 86,000 square feet and sublease 262,000 square feet to
existing subtenants. Of the 262,000 square feet that we currently sublease to existing tenants, subleases covering 86,000 square feet will expire at various dates commencing in July 2004. Should the Newton, Massachusetts commercial real estate
market deteriorate, we may not be able to find acceptable tenants at the rates or timing consistent with what we used in estimating our restructuring accrual.



Income Taxes. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the
jurisdictions in which we operate. This process also involves estimating the impact of additional taxes resulting from tax examinations, primarily in foreign jurisdictions. These examinations are often complex and can require several years to
resolve.

Accruals for tax contingencies require management to estimate the actual outcome of any such audits. Actual results could vary from these estimates.



Our provision for income taxes is also dependent upon our
estimation of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance and the change in our net deferred tax asset balance at each balance sheet date. Significant judgment is used to determine the likelihood that we will realize our deferred tax assets in the
future, and includes our ability to forecast future taxable income. An increase in the valuation allowance could have a material adverse impact on our income tax provision and net income in the period in which such determination is made.



Recent Accounting Standards



In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133
on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 149). SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies the accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging
activities under SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 149 is generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after September 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after September 30, 2003. We adopted SFAS No. 149 in fiscal year 2004. The
adoption of this standard did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.



In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (SFAS No. 150). SFAS No. 150 requires that certain
financial instruments, which under previous guidance were accounted for as equity, must now be accounted for as liabilities. The financial instruments affected include mandatory redeemable stock, certain financial instruments that require or may
require the issuer to buy back some of its shares in exchange for cash or other assets and certain obligations that can be settled with shares of stock. SFAS No. 150 is effective for all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31,
2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. We did not enter into or modify any financial instruments after May 31, 2003. We adopted SFAS No. 150 effective July 1, 2003. The adoption
of this standard did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.



In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21, Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangement(EITF 00-21). EITF 00-21 addresses certain aspects of the accounting by a
vendor for arrangements under which it will perform multiple revenue-generating activities. It also addresses when and how an arrangement involving multiple deliverables should be divided into separate units of accounting. The guidance in EITF 00-21
is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003, with early application permitted. Companies may elect to report the change in accounting as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle
in accordance with APB Opinion 20, Accounting Changesand SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements (an amendment of APB Opinion No. 28).We adopted the provisions of EITF 00-21
for transactions to which SOP 97-2 does not apply, such as sales of on-line subscription software applications in the quarter ended September 30, 2003. The adoption of EITF 00-21 did not have a significant impact our consolidated financial
statements.



In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation
No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46). FIN 46 applied immediately to variable interest entities (VIEs) created after January 31, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 had no impact on us as we
have no special purpose entities. We are continuing to evaluate the provisions of FIN 46R, which updates FIN 46, and is effective for periods ending after March 15, 2004, related to VIEs, created prior to February 2003, and their effects on our
consolidated financial statements.

Risk Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations



Except for the historical information contained in this Annual Report, the
matters discussed herein are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including those detailed below and from time to time in our other reports filed with the SEC. The actual results that we achieve may differ significantly
from any forward-looking statements due to such risks and uncertainties.



Our new product and version releases may not be successful and as a result our results of operations could be materially and adversely affectedA substantial portion of our revenues is
derived from license sales of new software products and new versions of existing software products. The success of new products and new versions of existing products, including the MX 2004 family of products released in fiscal 2004, depends on the
timing, market acceptance and performance of new products or new versions of existing products. In the past we have experienced delays in the development of new products and enhancement of existing products and such delays may occur in the future.
If we are unable, due to resource constraints or technological reasons, to develop and introduce products in a timely manner, such inability could have a significantly adverse effect on our results of operations, including, in particular, our
quarterly results. In addition, market acceptance of our new product or version releases will be dependent on our ability to include functionality and usability in such releases that address the requirements of customer demographics with which we
may have limited prior experience. We must update our existing products and services to keep them current with changing technology, competitive offerings and consumer preferences and must develop new products and services to take advantage of new
technologies that could otherwise render our existing products, or existing versions of such products, obsolete. Furthermore, our new product or version releases may contain undetected errors or bugs, which may result in product failures
or security breaches or otherwise fail to perform in accordance with customer expectations. In addition, such releases may not effectively guard against harmful or disruptive codes, including virus codes, new versions of which appear
periodically, which may target files or programs created using our products. The occurrence of errors or harmful codes could result in loss of market share, diversion of development resources, injury to our reputation and the reputation of our
products, or damage to our efforts to build positive brand awareness, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. If we do not ship new products or new versions of our existing
products as planned, if new product or version releases do not achieve adequate market acceptance, if new products or version releases fail to perform properly, or if we are unsuccessful in penetrating our Business User and Consumer markets, our
results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.



Our future operating results are difficult to predict and our future operating results and our stock price are subject to volatilityOur operating results for a particular period are extremely difficult to predict. Our
net revenues depend significantly on general domestic and global economic conditions and the demand for software products in the markets in which we compete. Uncertainty about future economic conditions makes it difficult to forecast operating
results and any delays or reductions in information technology spending could result in a material and adverse effect on our operations. Our revenues may grow at a slower rate than experienced in previous periods and, in particular periods, may
decline. We have also experienced variability in revenue trends during our quarters, noting an increase in revenues in the last month of each quarter. Our efforts to manage our operating expenses may hinder our ability to achieve growth in our
business and revenues. Any shortfall in revenues or results of operations from levels expected by securities analysts, general declines in economic conditions, or significant reductions in spending by our customers, could have an immediate and
materially adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock in any given period. In addition to factors specific to us, changes in analysts earnings estimates for us or our industry and factors affecting the corporate environment, our
industry, or the securities markets in general may result in significant volatility in the trading price of our common stock.



We implemented a new integrated enterprise resource planning (ERP) application which is scheduled to be operational in the first quarter
of fiscal year 2005During the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, we replaced our legacy ERP applications used to support a substantial portion of our worldwide operations with an integrated ERP application from a major enterprise
software vendor. This integrated ERP application supports our management of inventory, order processing, shipping, accounting and human resource (HR) functions. We may experience disruptions with our new integrated ERP application that
could prevent us from taking customer orders, shipping products or billing customers that could harm our business and our reputation. In addition, our new ERP application requires the services of employees with extensive knowledge of the specific
business application we license and the business environment in which we operate. In order to successfully operate our ERP application, we must be able to attract new employees and retain a significant number of existing employees. If we fail to
attract and retain the highly skilled personnel required to maintain and operate our ERP applications systems, our business could suffer.



We face intense competitionWe operate in a highly competitive market characterized by market and customer expectations to incorporate
new features and to accelerate the release of new products. These market factors represent both opportunities and competitive threats to us. With respect to competitive threats:



| |  |  | Our designer and developer tools compete directly and indirectly with products from major vendors including Microsoft Corporation (Microsoft), International Business
Machines (IBM) and Adobe.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Introduction
of new products, or introduction of new functionalities in current products, by us or by other companies may intensify our current competitive pressures. Some of our current and potential competitors have greater financial, marketing, technical and
intellectual property resources than we do.



Furthermore, we
have a number of strategic alliances with large and complex organizations, some of which may compete with us in certain markets. These arrangements are generally limited to specific projects, the goal of which is generally to achieve product
compatibility, promote product adoption, or facilitate product distribution. If successful, these relationships may be mutually beneficial. However, these alliances carry an element of risk because, in most cases, we must compete in some business
areas with a company with which we also have a strategic alliance and, at the same time, cooperate with that company in other business areas. If these companies fail to perform or if these relationships fail to materialize as expected, we could
suffer delays in product development, encounter barriers to product adoption and distribution or fail to realize the anticipated economic benefit of the strategic alliance.



We may not be able to successfully defend or enforce our intellectual property rightsBecause we are a
software company, our business is dependent on our ability to protect our intellectual property rights. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trade secret and trademark laws, as well as employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements and
license agreements, to protect our intellectual property rights and products. Policing unauthorized use of products and fully protecting our proprietary rights are difficult and we cannot guarantee that the steps we have taken to protect our
proprietary rights will be successful. In addition, effective patent, copyright, trade secret and trademark protection may not be available in every country in which our products are distributed or used. In particular, while we are unable to
determine the exact extent of piracy of our software products, software piracy may depress our revenues. While this would also adversely affect domestic revenue, revenue loss from piracy of our software products is believed to be even more
significant outside of the United States, particularly in countries where laws provide less protection of intellectual property rights. Protection of our intellectual property rights also is difficult in situations where the Company has taken
certain actions to promote broader adoption of our technology. For instance, in an effort to promote broader adoption of our technology, in particular the Macromedia Flash Player and the Macromedia Shockwave Player, we publish and grant industry
standard-setting organizations, user groups and third parties the right to use certain Macromedia product specifications, file formats, application programming interfaces (APIs), and other information. These specifications, file formats,
APIs and other information could be used to produce products that compete with and reduce demand for Macromedias own products. Our intellectual property enforcement rights may be diminished because of our decision to publish or license certain
intellectual property in an effort to promote its adoption.



We may be subject to intellectual property litigationFrom time to time, we are involved in legal disputes relating to the validity or alleged infringement of our, or of a third partys, intellectual property rights.
Intellectual property litigation is typically extremely costly, unpredictable and can be disruptive to our business operations by diverting the attention and energies of our management and key technical personnel. In addition, any adverse decisions,
including injunctions or damage awards entered against us, could subject us to significant liabilities, require us to seek licenses from others, prevent us from distributing or licensing certain of our products, or cause severe disruptions to our
operations or the markets in which we compete, any one of which could adversely impact our business and results of operations.



Risk associated with acquisitionsWe have entered into business combinations with other companies in the past, including our
acquisition of eHelp in December 2003, and two acquisitions in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003 and may make additional acquisitions in the future. Acquisitions generally involve significant risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of
the operations, business strategy, services, technologies and corporate culture of the acquired companies, diversion of managements attention from other business concerns, overvaluation of the acquired companies and the acceptance of the
acquired companies products and services by our customers. In addition, future acquisitions would likely result in dilution to existing stockholders, if stock or stock options are issued, or the assumption of debt and contingent liabilities,
which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Accordingly, any future acquisitions could result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations.



Risks associated with international
operationsInternational net revenues outside of North America accounted for approximately 44%, 42% and 40% of our consolidated net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. We expect that



30

##### Table of Contents

international sales will continue to represent a significant percentage of our revenues. We rely primarily on third parties, including distributors, for
sales and support of our software products in foreign countries and, accordingly, are dependent on their ability to promote and support our software products and in some cases, to translate them into foreign languages. In addition, we have and may
continue to, outsource specific development and quality assurance testing activities for certain of our software products to various foreign, independent third-party contractors. International business and operations are subject to a number of
special risks, including:



| |  |  | foreign currency risk;
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | foreign government regulation;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | reduced and/or less predictable intellectual property protections;

Additionally, we are uncertain whether the weaknesses experienced in certain foreign economies will continue in the foreseeable future due to, among other
things, possible currency devaluation, liquidity problems and political and continued military hostilities.



We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce economic exposure associated with sales and asset balances denominated in the Euro, Japanese
Yen and British Pound. At March 31, 2004, the net notional amount of forward contracts outstanding in U.S. Dollars using the spot exchange rates in effect at March 31, 2004 amounted to $40.9 million. However, there can be no assurance that such
contracts will adequately manage our exposure to currency fluctuations in the long-term, as the average maturity of these foreign exchange forward contracts is less than twelve months.



Our operating results are dependent, in part, on our distribution channelsA substantial portion of our
net revenues are derived from the sale of our software products through a variety of distribution channels, including traditional software distributors, educational distributors, VARs, hardware and software superstores, retail dealers and OEMs.
Although we have not experienced any material problems with our distribution channels, computer software dealers and distributors are typically not highly capitalized and have experienced difficulties during times of economic contraction and may do
so in the future. Our ability to effectively distribute products depends in part upon the financial and business conditions of our distribution channels. In addition, one distributor represented 21%, 28% and 28% of consolidated net revenues in
fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. A second distributor represented 13%, 8% and 8% of our consolidated net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The loss of, or a significant reduction in business, with any one of
our major distributors could have a material adverse effect on our business and consolidated results of operations in future periods. Furthermore, the terms of the arrangement with a distributor, OEM or reseller may result in us deferring
recognition of revenue from such arrangement due to various factors, including future delivery and other obligations that we may have under such arrangement or failure by such party to comply with the reporting and payment obligations under such
arrangement. Our revenues generated through our OEM channels may also be impacted by the marketability and success of the corresponding OEM products offered by these third parties.



While our products are marketed and sold through different levels of distribution channels, we maintain direct contractual
relationships primarily with the first-tier distributors, generally relying on such distributors to manage the relationship with second-tier distributors and resellers with respect to the distribution, marketing and promotion of our licenses.
Although we receive periodic reports from most of the distributors and resellers of our products, our reliance on our first-tier distributors to assist us in managing the lower level distribution channels limits our ability to (i) anticipate and
respond to excess inventory levels of, or change in demand for, our products by lower-tier distributors or resellers; (ii) directly manage the marketing or promotion of our products by such lower-tier distributors or resellers; and (iii) monitor the
adequacy of training received with respect to our products by employees of such lower-tier

distributors or resellers. Therefore, if our first-tier distributors are unable to continue to effectively assist us in marketing and selling our products to
the lower-tier distribution channels, the demand for and reputation of, our products may decrease and our operations and our financial results may be materially and adversely effected.



Product returns could exceed our estimates and harm our net revenuesThe primary sales channels into
which we sell our products throughout the world are a network of distributors and VARs. Agreements with our distributors and VARs contain specific product return privileges for stock rotation and obsolete products. In general, we expect sales
returns to increase following the announcement of new or upgraded versions of our products or in anticipation of such product announcements, as our distributors and resellers seek to reduce their inventory levels of the prior version of a product in
advance of receiving the new version. Similarly, we expect that product inventory held by our distributors and resellers would increase following the successful introduction of new or upgraded products, as these resellers stock the new version in
anticipation of end-user demand, which would result in a decrease in our allowance for sales returns. As part of our revenue recognition practices, we have established a reserve for estimated sales returns. These reserves are based on a number of
factors, including channel inventory levels and the timing of new product introductions. Actual product returns in excess of our reserve estimates would have an adverse effect on our net revenues and our results of operations.



Changing our pricing and business model could adversely affect our
businessWe periodically make changes to our product pricing or offer alternative methods of licensing our product, based on market conditions, customer demands, or in connection with marketing activities. Such increases in the pricing
of our products may cause our customers to seek lower-priced alternatives, decrease the aggregate demand for such products and have an adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, competition in our various markets may require us to
reduce prices on certain products in such markets. In the event that we are required to reduce the pricing of our products, we may not be able to offset the lower unit price with increased demand for the corresponding products. Furthermore, any
changes in pricing of products in general may result in delays in transactions as our customers and our sales force adapt to such price changes and may have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Moreover, customer demand and competition in
the market may require us to offer alternative methods of licensing our products. In the event that we offer alternative methods of licensing our products, the revenues generated from licenses based on such alternative methods may not offset the
loss of revenues from our existing method of licensing our products in any given period and may have an adverse effect on our results of operations.



Changes or disruptions in services provided by third parties could disrupt our businessWe rely primarily on a single independent third
party to produce and distribute our products. If there is a temporary or permanent disruption of our supply from such manufacturer, we may not be able to replace the supply in sufficient time to meet the demand for our products. Any such failure to
meet the demand for our products would adversely affect our revenues and might cause some users to purchase licenses to our competitors products to meet their requirements.



We rely on a limited number of independent third parties to provide support services to our customers. If any of these
third-party service providers terminates its relationship with us or ceases to be able to continue to maintain such relationship with us, we may not have sufficient notice or time to avoid serious disruption to our business. Furthermore, if any such
third-party service providers fail to provide adequate or satisfactory support for our products, our reputation as well as the success of our products may be adversely affected.



Moreover, we have and may continue to outsource specific development and quality assurance activities for certain of our
products. If such third-party developers are not able to complete the development activities on time, the release of the corresponding new product or a new version may be delayed. In addition, since we are unable to control the development
activities outsourced by us to third parties, the portions of our product developed by such third parties may contain significant errors or bugs.



Termination of licenses for technologies from third parties could cause delays, increased costs or reduced functionality that may result in a
material reduction in our net revenues and higher costsWe license and distribute third-party technologies that are bundled with or embedded in our products. If any of these licenses from third parties were terminated or were not
renewed, or the third-party technology were to become subject to an intellectual property dispute, we might not be able to ship our products in which these technologies are bundled or embedded. We would then have to seek an alternative to such third
party technology to the extent that such an alternative exists. This could result in delays in releasing and/or shipping our products, increased costs or reduced functionality of our products and material reduction in our net revenues.



Adverse economic conditions in the commercial real estate market may
affect our ability to sublease vacated portions of properties held under subleaseIn fiscal year 2002, we executed a restructuring plan to deliver cost synergies associated with our prior acquisitions and to better align our cost
structure with the weaker business environment. During fiscal year 2002, our restructuring expenses included, among other things, costs related to canceling or vacating approximately 450,000 square feet of facility space held under our operating
leases. We currently lease 390,000 square feet of space in Northern California under operating leases which expire between 2004 and 2011, of which 124,000 square feet of space is not currently occupied by us and is currently subleased or being
marketed for sublease. Furthermore, we lease 348,000 square feet of space in Newton, Massachusetts, which



32

##### Table of Contents

expires in June 2010, of which 262,000 square feet is currently subleased. We also lease 55,000 square feet at a facility in Richardson, Texas, of which
27,000 square feet is currently being subleased. Our restructuring expenses and accruals involve significant estimates made by management using the best information available at the time that the estimates were made, including market data obtained
from real estate brokers in the local markets. These estimates include evaluating the timing and market conditions of rental payments and sublease income. Any reductions in our operations, including staff reductions, may result in us vacating
additional portions of properties held under operating leases prior to the expiration of the corresponding lease agreements. The general adverse economic conditions in the areas in which we have significant leased properties have resulted in a
surplus of business facilities making it difficult to sublease properties. There can be no assurance that market conditions will improve during our lease period. If market conditions deteriorate, we may be unable to sublease our excess leased
properties at all or on terms acceptable to us, or we may not meet our expected estimated levels of subleasing income and our results of operations could be adversely affected.



System failures or system unavailability could harm our businessWe rely on our network infrastructure,
internal technology systems and our websites for our development, marketing, operational, support and sales activities. The hardware and software systems related to such activities are subject to damage from earthquakes, floods, fires, power loss,
telecommunication failures, computer viruses and other similar events. They are also subject to acts such as computer viruses, physical or electronic vandalism or other similar disruptions could also cause system interruptions, delays and loss of
critical data and could prevent us from fulfilling our customers orders. We have developed disaster recovery plans and backup systems to reduce the potentially adverse effect of such events, as they could impact our sales and damage our
reputation and the reputation of our products. We may, however, have inadequate insurance coverage or insurance limits to compensate us for losses from a major interruption. Any event that causes failures or interruption in our hardware or software
systems could result in disruption in our business operations, loss of revenues or damage to our reputation.



We may not be able to attract or retain key personnelOur future growth and success depend, in part, on the continued service of our
highly skilled employees, including, but not limited to, our management team and sales personnel. Our ability to attract and retain employees is dependent on a number of factors, including our continued ability to provide stock incentive awards,
competitive cash compensation and cash bonuses. The loss of key employees or an inability to effectively recruit new employees, as needed, could have a material adverse affect on our business and our ability to grow in the future.



Legislative actions may cause our operating expenses to
increaseThe Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and newly proposed or enacted rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the NASDAQ stock market impose new duties on us and our executives, directors,
attorneys and independent auditors. In order to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and any new rules promulgated by the SEC or NASDAQ, we may be required to hire additional personnel and use additional outside legal, accounting and advisory
services. Any of these developments could materially increase our operating expenses and adversely affect our results of operations.



Future impairment assessments on certain intangible assets may result in additional impairment chargesIn fiscal year 2003, we adopted
SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. As a result, our goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are no longer amortized, but instead, reviewed at least annually for impairment. Significant changes in
demand for our products or changes in market conditions in the principal markets in which we sell our products, could adversely impact the carrying value of these intangible assets. In particular, if there is (i) a significant and other than
temporary decline in the market value of our common stock; (ii) a decrease in the market value of a particular asset; and (iii) operating or cash flow losses combined with forecasted future losses, we could be required to record impairment charges
related to goodwill and other intangible assets, which could adversely affect our financial results. In addition, should we develop and manage our business using discrete financial information for reporting units in the future, we may be required to
allocate our goodwill balance to those reporting units, which may result in an impairment of part or all of our recorded goodwill.



Changes in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) may affect our reported resultsWe prepare our financial
statements in conformity with GAAP. GAAP is subject to interpretation by the SEC and various bodies formed to interpret and create appropriate accounting policies. Of particular significance are the GAAP relating to the accounting treatment of
employee stock options and the recognition of revenue in software licensing transactions. A change in these policies could have a significant effect on our reported results and may affect the reporting of transactions completed prior to the
announcement of a change.



Changes in tax laws and
regulations may increase our expenses and the cost of our productsIn October 1998, the federal Internet Tax Freedom Act (ITFA) was enacted. The ITFA imposed a three-year moratorium on state and local taxes related to
internet access and discriminatory taxes on electronic commerce that expired October 20, 2001. In November 2001, the moratorium was extended another two years until November 2003. In September 2003, the House passed legislation (H.R. 49) that would
permanently extend the moratorium. On April 29, 2004, the Senate approved the extension of the moratorium for another four years. The House and Senate bills must be reconciled before legislation can be enacted, the timing of which is unclear. If the
ITFA is not extended or permanently enacted, state and local jurisdictions may seek to impose taxes on internet access or electronic commerce within their jurisdictions that could increase the selling costs of our products.

##### Table of Contents

Also, on July 1, 2003, the European Union enacted legislation requiring all non-European Union vendors to
collect Value Added Tax (VAT) on all electronically supplied goods or services sold to consumers in the European Union. Compliance with this new European Union tax legislation has increased the cost of our products to consumers in the
European Union and could decrease the demand for our products in that region.



Changes in our tax rates could affect our future resultsOur future effective tax rates could be favorably or unfavorably affected by changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing
statutory tax rates, by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, or by changes in tax laws or their interpretations. In addition, we are subject to examination of our tax returns by the tax authorities.



|ITEM 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------



Interest Rate Risk



We invest our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of financial instruments, consisting primarily of U.S. Dollar-denominated
U.S. treasury securities, U.S. government agency securities, commercial paper, highly liquid corporate debt securities, money market funds and interest-bearing accounts with financial institutions. Cash balances in foreign currencies are primarily
invested in money market funds and interest-bearing bank accounts with financial institutions.



We account for our short-term investments in accordance with SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Cash equivalents and all of our short-term investments are recorded
as available-for-sale and accordingly are classified as current assets on our balance sheets. Securities with original maturities less than three months are classified as cash equivalents.



Cash equivalents and short-term investments include primarily fixed-rate and
floating-rate interest earning instruments, which carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed-rate securities may have their market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates, while floating-rate securities may produce less income than
expected if interest rates decline. We mitigate interest rate volatility by investing in instruments with short maturities. We ensure the safety and preservation of our invested funds by placing these investments with high credit-quality issuers. We
maintain portfolio liquidity by ensuring that underlying investments have active secondary or resale markets.



The table below represents cost, carrying amounts and the related weighted average effective interest rates by year of maturity for our cash equivalents
and short-term investments as of March 31, 2004. The table does not include cash of $9.3 million held in deposit accounts as of March 31, 2004.

Foreign Currency Risk



Our international operations are subject to risks typical
of an international business, including, among other factors: differing economic conditions; changes in political climate; differing tax structures; other regulations and restrictions; and foreign exchange volatility. As a result, our future results
could be materially impacted by changes in these or other factors.



We sell our products internationally in U.S. Dollars and certain foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, Japanese Yen and British Pound. We regularly enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to offset the impact of currency
fluctuations on certain foreign currency revenues and operating expenses as well as subsequent receivables and payables. Our managements present strategy is to reduce the risk to earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign
currency exchange rates over our fiscal year. We account for derivative instruments and hedging activities in accordance with SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 133 requires that all derivatives be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value.



34

##### Table of Contents

Our exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations results from the sale of products internationally in
foreign currencies and from expenses in foreign currencies to support those sales. We have a risk management program to reduce the effect of foreign exchange transaction gains and losses from recorded foreign currency-denominated assets and
liabilities. This program involves the use of foreign exchange forward contracts in certain currencies, primarily the Euro, Japanese Yen and British Pound. A foreign exchange forward contract obligates us to exchange predetermined amounts of
specified foreign currencies at specified exchange rates on specified dates. Under this program, increases or decreases in our foreign currency transactions are partially offset by gains and losses on the foreign exchange forward contracts, so as to
mitigate the income statement impact of significant foreign currency exchange rate movements. We do not use foreign exchange forward contracts for speculative or trading purposes.



Cash Flow Hedging. We designate and document foreign exchange forward contracts related to forecasted
transactions as cash flow hedges and as a result, we apply hedge accounting for these contracts. The critical terms of the foreign exchange forward contracts and the forecasted underlying transactions are matched at inception and forward contract
effectiveness is calculated, at least quarterly, by comparing the change in the fair value of the contracts to the change in the fair value of the forecasted revenues or expenses, with the effective portion of the fair value of the hedges recorded
in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI). We record any ineffective portion of the hedging instruments, which was immaterial in fiscal year 2004, in other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations. When
the underlying forecasted transactions occur and impact earnings, the related gain or loss on the cash flow hedge is reclassified to net revenues or expenses. In the event it becomes probable that the forecasted transactions will not occur, the gain
or loss on the related cash flow hedges would be reclassified from AOCI to other income (expense) at that time. All values reported in AOCI at March 31, 2004 will be reclassified to earnings in eight months or less. At March 31, 2004, the
outstanding cash flow hedging derivatives had maturities of twelve months or less.



Balance Sheet Hedging. We manage our foreign currency risk associated with foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities using foreign exchange forward contracts. These derivative
instruments are carried at fair value with changes in the fair value recorded in other income (expense). These derivative instruments substantially offset the re-measurement gains and losses recorded on identified foreign currency denominated assets
and liabilities. At March 31, 2004, our outstanding balance sheet hedging derivatives had maturities of twelve months or less.



Our outstanding net foreign exchange forward contracts at March 31, 2004 are presented in the table below. This table presents the net notional amount in
U.S. Dollars using the spot exchange rates in effect at March 31, 2004 and the weighted average forward rates. Weighted average forward rates are quoted using market conventions. All of these forward contracts mature in twelve months or less.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. On June 14, 2004, at the time of the original filing of the Companys annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2004, officers of Macromedia provided conclusions regarding the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures that they believed were then accurate, as required by Regulation S-K.



In January 2005, subsequent to this evaluation, the Company
determined that it had not properly re-measured certain of its net foreign-currency denominated tax liabilities to U.S. Dollars, and accordingly recorded a cumulative adjustment of $2.0 million in the three month period ended December 31, 2004.
Based on analysis prepared at that time, management concluded and disclosed in its report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2004 that the effect of this adjustment was not material to any period previously presented or to the nine
months ended December 31, 2004. At that time, the Company believed that the amount would not be material to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2005. Later, in May 2005, the Company determined that at March 31, 2004, it had understated by $6.8 million
a liability related to the accrued benefit of an employee sabbatical-leave program, adopted in fiscal year 1999, which provides paid time-off to employees based on years of employment. The Company has concluded that adjusting the cumulative effect
of this error would be material to its fiscal year 2005 results. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the most appropriate way to correct these errors was to restate previously issued financial statements.



As a result of these errors, we have determined that control deficiencies
existed with respect to our historical financial reporting related to the impact of foreign exchange rate changes on net tax liabilities and our sabbatical-leave program and accordingly, we have concluded that our disclosure controls were
ineffective at March 31, 2004. The Company has concluded that the circumstances that led to the filing of this amendment resulted primarily from certain accounting practices that were implemented several years ago and prior to fully designing and
implementing accounting controls related to our income taxes and sabbatical-leave-program. We have subsequently implemented additional detailed procedures to ensure foreign-denominated tax assets and liabilities are properly re-measured to U.S.
Dollars at each balance sheet date. Additionally, we have corrected our methodology for accounting for our sabbatical program and have implemented policies and procedures to ensure the liability is properly reported in our financial statements.



(b) Changes in internal controls. There were no changes
in our internal controls over financial reporting during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



Given the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of
controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that
breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. The design of any
system of controls is also based in part on certain assumptions regarding the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Macromedia, Inc.



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Macromedia, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2004 and 2003 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended March 31, 2004. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial
statements, we have also audited the financial statement schedule as listed in the accompanying index in Item 15(A)2 herein. These consolidated financial statements and the financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Companys
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.



We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.



In our opinion, the consolidated financial
statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Macromedia, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2004 and 2003 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended March 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken
as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.



As described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements for all periods presented have been restated to correct the Companys accounting for income taxes and its obligations
under an employee sabbatical-leave program. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets on April 1, 2002.

MACROMEDIA, INC.



NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



|1. | Nature of Operations
|-- | --------------------



Macromedia, Inc. (the Company or Macromedia) provides software that empowers designers, developers and business users to create and deliver effective user experiences on the Internet, fixed media and wireless and
digital devices. The Companys integrated family of technologies enables the development of a wide range of internet solutions including websites, rich media content and Internet applications across multiple platforms and devices.



The Company sells its products through a worldwide network of
distributors, value-added resellers (VARs) and its own sales force and websites. In addition, Macromedia derives revenues from software maintenance and technology licensing agreements to original equipment manufacturers
(OEMs) and end users.



|2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|-- | ------------------------------------------



Principles of ConsolidationThe consolidated financial statements include all domestic and foreign subsidiaries that are more than 50% owned. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have
been eliminated.



Use of EstimatesThe preparation
of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of net revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.



Software Revenue RecognitionThe Company
recognizes revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as modified by SOP 98-9,Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions.



Revenues recognized from software licenses are recognized upon shipment provided that persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, collection of the resulting receivables is deemed probable and the payment terms are fixed or determinable.
The Company also maintains allowances for anticipated product returns and rebates to distributors. Revenues from consulting, training and other services are generally recognized as the services are performed. When shrink-wrap software licenses are
sold together with services, revenues are allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the relative fair values of the elements, such as software products, maintenance, support and training.



The determination of fair value is based on objective evidence that is
specific to the Company, commonly referred to as vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE). Fair value for the Companys software products, maintenance, support and training is based on prices charged when the element is sold
separately. In certain instances where an element has not been sold separately and the VSOE of fair value is unavailable, fair value is established by a price determined by the Companys management, if it is probable that the price, once
established, will not change before the separate introduction of the element into the marketplace. If such evidence of fair value for each element of the arrangement does not exist, all revenue from the arrangement is deferred until such time that
evidence of fair value does exist or until all elements of the arrangement are delivered. If the only remaining undelivered element is maintenance and support, revenue for all elements would be recognized ratably over the period of maintenance and
support. If in a multiple element arrangement, fair value does not exist for one or more of the delivered elements in the arrangement, but fair value does exist for all undelivered elements, then the residual method of accounting is applied. Under
the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue. The Company does not defer revenue for undelivered elements if these elements are determined to be
insignificant.



The Company licenses products to OEMs or
provides end-user customers the right to use multiple copies. These arrangements generally provide for nonrefundable fixed fees. Revenues are recognized upon delivery of the product master or the first copy, provided all significant obligations have
been met, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, fees are fixed and determinable and collection is probable. Per-copy royalties in excess of the fixed minimum amounts are recognized as revenues when earned. If maintenance and support is
included in the contract, it is unbundled from the license fee using the Companys objective evidence of the fair value of the maintenance and support. If objective evidence of the fair value of the maintenance and support is not available, the
revenues from the entire arrangement are recognized ratably over the maintenance and support term.



Fees from volume licenses are recognized as revenues upon shipment provided that all significant obligations have been met, persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists, fees are fixed or determinable, collection is probable and the arrangement does not involve services that are essential to the functionality of the software. Fees from licenses sold together with consulting services are generally
recognized upon shipment provided that the above criteria have been met and payment of the licenses is not dependent upon

the performance of consulting services. Revenues from maintenance and support are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.



During periods of product transition when upgraded versions of
existing products are being introduced and released for commercial shipment, we provide eligible end-user customers who purchase the older product version during a specified time frame the right to receive the upgrade version of the licensed product
at no additional charge. The Company also offers certain discount rights to existing users to migrate to other Macromedia products. Such transactions are multiple-element arrangements under which we defer revenue equal to the fair value of the
specified upgrade or discount right, reduced by the estimated percentage of customers who will not exercise the right in the specified time period. Estimates of customers not exercising the right are based upon historical analyses. The actual
percentage of customers not exercising the right has been materially consistent with our estimates.



For desktop software products, the Company offers complimentary 90-day technical support to end-user customers who have registered their products via
e-mail or over the phone. This cost is included as part of the initial license fee charged to the customer. The Company has determined that the cost to provide this support is insignificant. In addition, no product updates are provided during this
period. As a result, the Company does not defer any portion of the license fee related to this support.



Allowance for Sales ReturnsThe Company has established an allowance for sales returns based upon estimated and known returns. Product returns
are recorded as a reduction of net revenues and as a reduction of the Companys accounts receivable balance. Agreements for boxed products with the Companys distributors and VARs contain specific product return privileges for stock
rotation and obsolete products that are generally limited to contractual amounts. Current product returns for stock rotation from distributors are generally limited to 10% of their prior quarters purchases, provided they order new products for
an amount equal to or exceeding the amount of the requested return. Distributors may typically return 100% of their inventory balance for obsolete product within a limited time after the release of a new version of such software. Under the terms of
the Companys distribution agreements, authorized returns for obsolete products require a new order from such distributor at an amount not less than the amount of the requested return. Sales of the Companys volume-licensed products
generally do not contain return-right privileges. Products purchased directly from the Company by end-users, including sales from the Companys online stores, have 30-day return rights.



Allowance for Doubtful AccountsThe Company makes judgments as to
its ability to collect outstanding accounts receivable and provides allowances for accounts receivable when collection becomes doubtful. The Company also makes judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on ongoing credit evaluations and
the aging profile of customer accounts receivable, and assesses current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. Historically, the Companys allowance for doubtful accounts has been sufficient to cover actual
credit losses.



Cash Equivalents and Short-term
InvestmentsCash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of generally three months or less at the time of purchase, including money market funds. Short-term investments consist of readily marketable
securities with a remaining maturity of generally more than three months from time of purchase. Cash equivalents and all of the Companys short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale. Where the maturity is more than
one year, the securities are classified as short-term as the Companys intention is to convert them into cash for operations as needed. At March 31, 2004, these marketable securities consisted of highly liquid corporate debt securities,
asset-backed securities, U.S. treasury securities, U.S. government agency securities, commercial paper and repurchase agreements. Cash equivalents in foreign currencies consist of money market funds. The objective of the Companys investments
policy is the preservation of the value of its fixed-income investment portfolio while maintaining adequate financial liquidity. The Company invests in high-quality fixed-income investment securities with maturities of 24 months or less.



The cost of available-for-sale securities is adjusted for amortization of
premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included in interest income, net. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as a separate component of accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders equity. Realized gains and losses are included in interest income, net.



The Company reviews its investments in marketable securities on a regular basis to determine whether or not each security has experienced an
other-than-temporary decline in fair value. A sustained decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale security compared to the Companys carrying value for a period extending beyond six months is considered other-than-temporary. If the
Company concludes that an other-than-temporary decline exists in its marketable securities, the Company writes down the investment to the fair value and records the related write down as an investment loss in its consolidated statements of
operations.



Concentrations of Credit
RiskFinancial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments, forward contracts used in foreign exchange activities and accounts receivable.

MACROMEDIA, INC.



NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



The Company places its cash equivalents, short-term investments and financial instruments used in
foreign hedging activities with major financial institutions of high credit standing. The Company is exposed to credit risks related to its cash equivalents and short-term investments in the event of default or decrease in credit-worthiness of one
of the issuers of the investments. The Company monitors the financial creditworthiness of these issuers and limits its concentration in individual securities and type of investments that exist within its portfolio. In addition, all of the
Companys investments must carry high credit quality ratings. The counterparties to agreements related to the Companys foreign exchange forward contracts are major financial institutions. The amounts subject to credit risk arising from
the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contract are generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparties obligations exceed the obligations of the Company to that counterparty. The Company does not
believe there is significant financial risk from non-performance by the issuers of the Companys cash equivalents and short-term investments and counterparties to the Companys foreign exchange forward contracts.



The Company controls credit risk related to its accounts receivable through
credit approvals, credit limits and routine monitoring procedures. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of all significant distributors and direct customers. If deemed necessary, the Company may require prepayments or letters of credit
and bank guarantees, but generally requires no collateral.



Distributors comprise a significant portion of the Companys revenues and trade receivables. Sales to one distributor accounted for 21%, 28% and 28% of the Companys consolidated net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002,
respectively, and receivable balances of 19% and 16% of the Companys gross accounts receivable outstanding at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Sales to a second distributor accounted for 13%, 8% and 8% of the Companys consolidated
net revenues in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, and receivable balances of 14% and 4% of the Companys gross accounts receivable outstanding at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.



InvestmentsEntities in which the Company holds at least a 20%
ownership or in which there are other indicators of significant influence are accounted for by the equity method. Entities in which the Company holds less than 20% ownership and does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are
generally carried at cost.



The Company has historically held
certain non-marketable investments in privately-held companies that are accounted for on the cost-basis. Impairment losses are recognized on these investments when the Company determines that there has been a decline in the fair market value of the
investment that is other than temporary determined considering, among other factors, the investees current and projected operating results, including estimated liquidation value and the inability of the investees to obtain additional
financing. At March 31, 2004 and 2003, these investments had no carrying value on the Companys consolidated balance sheets.



InventoryInventory consists primarily of software media and user manuals. Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market value,
determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventory is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and is not material.



Related-Party TransactionsThe Company holds loans receivable from certain non-executive employees, including accrued interest, totaling $2.7
million and $3.2 million as of March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, primarily in connection with relocation related to their employment, which are secured by real property. These loans are classified on the Companys consolidated balance
sheets as other non-current assets. The principal amounts of the loans are payable on the loan maturity date and have an average remaining maturity of less than three years. These loans bear interest at rates between 1.21% and 2.73%.



Property and Equipment, netBuildings, equipment, computer
software and furniture are recorded at cost and are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using a straight-line method. Buildings are depreciated over 40 years. Equipment, computer software and furniture have estimated useful
lives ranging from 18 months to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the related assets, ranging from three to ten years. Land is recorded at cost
and is not depreciated.



Software Development Costs for
Internal UseThe Company capitalizes the cost of software developed for internal use in accordance with SOP 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Useand EITF Issue No. 00-02,
Accounting for Website Development Costs. Capitalization of the costs of software developed or obtained for internal use and website development costs begins at the application development phase of the project and totaled $7.0 million and
$6.1 million at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Amortization of the costs of software developed for internal use and website development costs begins when the assets are placed in productive use. Capitalized software costs for internal use
and website development costs are generally amortized over three years and are classified as a component of Property and equipment, net. Capitalized software costs which have not yet begun to be amortized are reflected in construction in progress
(see Note 9).

GoodwillPrior to April 1, 2002, goodwill and assembled workforce were amortized on a
straight-line basis over a three-year period. On April 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS No. 142). As a result of adopting SFAS No. 142, the Company no longer amortizes goodwill,
which included assembled workforce that was reclassified to goodwill upon adoption of this standard.



The Company currently operates in one business segment, the Software segment. When reviewing goodwill for impairment, SFAS No. 142 requires that the
Company assess whether goodwill should be allocated to operating levels lower than the Software segment (termed reporting units) for which discrete financial information is available and reviewed for decision-making purposes. Currently,
the Company does not have any reporting units lower than its Software segment that meet the criteria set forth in SFAS No. 142.



The Company performs an annual impairment test in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year by assessing the fair value and recoverability of its goodwill,
unless facts and circumstances warrant a review of goodwill for impairment before that time. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting unit using a discounted cash flow model. The Company compared the fair value of its reporting unit to
its carrying value in fiscal years 2004 and 2003 and noted that goodwill was not impaired.



Purchased and Other Intangible AssetsPurchased and other intangible assets primarily consist of, purchased technology and localization and acquired developed technology, trademarks, trade names and
customer lists relating to mergers and acquisitions.



The Company capitalizes the costs of purchased technology and localization services to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed in accordance with SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise
Marketed(SFAS No. 86). Under the Companys policy, costs incurred in the initial design phase of software development are expensed as incurred. Once the point of technological feasibility is reached, development costs are
capitalized and classified as a component of Purchased and other intangible assets, net. These costs are amortized on a per-unit basis as revenues are recognized, but not less than on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the technology,
which is generally 1 to 3 years, and are included as a component of Cost of revenues.



The Company also capitalizes the cost of acquired developed technology and other intangible assets relating to mergers and acquisitions. Such costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally one to
five years. Acquired developed technology is amortized and included as a component of cost of revenues. Other intangible assets are amortized and included as a component of operating expenses. The actual lives of the Companys Purchased and
other intangible assets, net could differ from managements estimates and as such, differences could cause carrying amounts of the assets to be materially reduced.



The Company reviews its acquired developed technology, purchased technology, and localization for impairment in accordance
with SFAS No. 86 whenever the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its estimated net realizable value.



Long-Lived AssetsThe Companys long-lived assets consist of property and equipment and trademarks, trade names, and customer lists. The
Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. For assets to be held and used, the Company initiates its review whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the expected future undiscounted cash flows that the asset is expected to
generate. If it is determined that an asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.



Foreign Currency Re-measurementThe functional currency of the Companys foreign subsidiaries is the U.S.
Dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured in U.S. Dollars using the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured in
U.S. Dollars using historical exchange rates. Net revenues and expenses are re-measured using average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Gains and losses resulting from re-measurements, excluding re-measurement of income tax asset and
liability accounts, are recorded in the Companys consolidated statements of operations as a component of Other, net and were not material in fiscal years 2004, 2003, or 2002. The impact of re-measuring income tax asset and liability accounts
are included in the provision for income taxes and increased (decreased) tax expense by $1.3 million, $1.1 million and $(0.4) million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.



Foreign Currency HedgingSFAS No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires that all derivatives be recorded on the balance sheets at fair value. In fiscal year 2003, the Company
began entering into derivative transactions to protect against the risk of foreign exchange currency movements on the value of certain assets and future cash flows. Financial derivative instruments, comprised of forward foreign exchange contracts,
designated in hedging relationships that mitigate the exposure to the variability in expected future cash flows or other forecasted transactions are considered cash flow hedges. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging
instruments and hedged items and the risk management objective and strategy for each hedge transaction.



Cash flow hedges are accounted for by recording the fair value of the financial derivative instrument as either a freestanding asset or a freestanding
liability in the consolidated balance sheets, with the effective portion of the change in fair value of the financial derivative recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) within shareholders equity, net of tax.
Amounts are then included in net revenues in the same period the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the financial derivative is recorded in Other, net within Other income (expense)
on the Companys statements of operations. These amounts were not material in fiscal years 2004 and 2003. If it becomes probable that a hedged forecasted transaction will not occur, amounts included in AOCI related to the specific hedging
instruments are reported in other, net within Other income (expense) on the Companys statements of operations. In fiscal years 2004 and 2003, these amounts have not been material.



Stock-Based CompensationAs permitted under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the
Company has elected to follow APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations in accounting for stock-based compensation to employees. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the
excess, if any, of the market price of the Companys common stock at the date of grant over the stock option exercise price. Compensation costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected service period, which is generally the
vesting period of the stock-based awards.



Pursuant to SFAS No.
148, the Company is required to disclose the pro forma effects on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share as if the Company had elected to use the fair value approach to account for all of its employee stock-based compensation plans. The
Company has revised its SFAS No. 123 pro forma stock option disclosure presented below to incorporate pro forma expense under SFAS No. 123 associated with certain options subject to a voluntary stock option exchange program in fiscal year 2002. This
revision of the employee stock-based compensation expense determined under the fair value based method for all employee stock option awards resulted in increased pro forma expense of $32.8 million and $36.9 million for the fiscal years ended March
31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.



Had compensation cost for the
Companys plans been determined consistently with the fair value approach in accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Companys pro forma net income (loss) and pro forma net income (loss) per share would have been:

Accordingly, using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the above assumptions, the weighted average fair value of Macromedia stock options granted during fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002 was $10.67, $6.73 and $10.20, respectively. In addition, the weighted average
fair value of purchase rights granted under the ESPPs during fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, was $4.31, $2.98 and $7.31 per right, respectively.



Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for reporting and displaying
comprehensive income (loss) and its components in the consolidated financial statements. The components of other comprehensive income (loss) included unrealized gains or losses from the Companys available-for-sale short-term investments during
fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, and unrealized gains or losses associated with the Companys cash flow hedges during fiscal year 2004 and 2003.



Cost of Net RevenuesCost of net revenues includes cost of materials, royalties paid to third-parties for the licensing of developed
technology, product assembly and distribution costs, costs incurred in providing training and technical support to customers and business partners, costs to translate software into various foreign languages and amortization and impairment of
acquired developed technology.



Advertising
CostsAdvertising expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising expenses incurred during fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002 were $14.9 million, $12.5 million and $13.5 million, respectively.



Income TaxesThe Company uses the asset and liability method of
accounting for income taxes as required under SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method of Statement 109, deferred income taxes are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company evaluates the need for a deferred tax asset valuation allowance by assessing whether it is more likely than not it will realize the tax benefits of its deferred tax
assets in the future. The assessment of whether or not a valuation allowance is required often requires significant judgment including the forecast of future taxable income and the evaluation of tax planning initiatives in each of the jurisdictions
in which we operate. The Company also accounts for any income tax contingencies in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.



Recent Accounting StandardsIn April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities (SFAS No. 149). SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies the accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 149 is
generally effective for contracts entered into or modified after September 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after September 30, 2003. The Company adopted SFAS No. 149 in fiscal year 2004. Adoption of this standard did not have an
impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.



In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (SFAS No. 150). SFAS No. 150 requires that certain financial instruments, which
under previous guidance were accounted for as equity, must now be accounted for as liabilities. The financial instruments affected include mandatory redeemable stock, certain financial instruments that require or may require the issuer to buy back
some of its shares in exchange for cash or other assets and certain obligations that can be settled with shares of stock. SFAS No. 150 is effective for all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective
at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company did not enter into or modify any financial instruments after May 31, 2003. The Company adopted SFAS No. 150 effective July 1, 2003. The adoption of this standard
did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial results.



In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21, Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangement(EITF 00-21). EITF 00-21 addresses certain aspects of the accounting by a
vendor for arrangements under which it will perform multiple revenue-generating activities. It also addresses when and how an arrangement involving multiple deliverables should be divided into separate units of accounting. The guidance in EITF 00-21
is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003, with early application permitted. Companies may elect to report the change in accounting as a

cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in accordance with APB Opinion 20, Accounting Changesand SFAS No. 3 ,
Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements (an amendment of APB Opinion No. 28). The Company adopted the provisions of EITF 00-21 for transactions to which SOP 97-2 does not apply, such as sales of on-line
subscription software applications in the quarter ended September 30, 2003. The adoption of EITF 00-21 did not have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.



In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46,
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46). FIN 46 applied immediately to variable interest entities (VIEs) created after January 31, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 had no impact on us as we have no
special purpose entities. We are continuing to evaluate the provisions of FIN 46R, which updates FIN 46, and is effective for periods ending after March 15, 2004, related to VIEs, created prior to February 2003, and their effects on our consolidated
financial statements.



|3. | Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements
|-- | ------------------------------------------------



On May 2, 2005 the Company determined that at March 31, 2004, it had understated by $6.8 million a liability related to the accrued benefit of an
employee sabbatical-leave program adopted in fiscal year 1999 which provides paid time-off to employees based on years of employment. The Company has concluded that adjusting the cumulative effect of this item would be material to its fiscal year
2005 results. Accordingly, the Company concluded that the most appropriate way to correct this matter is to restate previously issued financial statements. The impact on previously reported operating income as a result of corrections to the
accounting for our sabbatical-leave program, excluding the related tax effects, is a decrease to operating income of $(1.6) million, $(0.9) million, $(0.9) million, $(1.3) million, $, and $(1.4) million for the fiscal years ended March 31,
1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.



In
addition to the Company restating its previously issued financial statements for the employee sabbatical-leave program liability, the Company has also restated these financial statements for the impact of re-measuring net tax liabilities due to
changes in foreign exchange rates. This impact had previously been recorded in the Companys consolidated statement of operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2004. In addition, the Company is also restating its previously issued
financial statements for certain other tax-related items identified during the restatement process. The impact on previously reported results from the correction of these tax-related matters (including the tax impact of the sabbatical-leave
adjustment) was an increase (decrease) to our income tax provision of $(0.3) million, $(0.3) million, $1.0 million, $0.7 million, $0.6 million and $1.5 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively.



A reconciliation of the Companys reported and as
restated consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and its reported and as restated consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2004 and 2003 are shown in the following tables. In
addition, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at March 31 2004 and 2003 reflect the reclassification of certain intangible assets so as to present all intangible assets, exclusive of goodwill, in purchased and other intangible assets, net.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold,
Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, a reclassification was made on the Companys consolidated statements of operations for fiscal years 2003 and 2002 to include the amortization and impairment of acquired developed technology as a component of
cost of revenues. Historically, the Company had classified the amortization and impairment of acquired developed technology as a component of operating expenses. As a result of the reclassification, reported amounts for cost of revenues increased
and operating expenses decreased by $21.7 million and $11.3 million for fiscal year 2003 and 2002, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



Certain other prior period items in these consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the current period presentation, including the reclassification of the non-current portion of deferred tax assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, a reclassification was made on the Companys consolidated balance sheet for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2003 to reflect the non-current portion of deferred tax assets as a non-current asset. Historically, the Company classified all of its deferred tax assets as a current asset on its consolidated balance sheets. As a result
of this reclassification, reported total current assets for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003 decreased by $9.9 million with a corresponding increase in deferred income taxes, non-current. There was no impact to total assets.



Also reflected in these restated financial statements is the reclassification
of certain intangible assets on our consolidated balances sheets so as to present all intangible assets, exclusive of goodwill, in purchased and other intangible assets, net.

|-- | ---------------------



eHelp CorporationOn December 19, 2003, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of privately-held eHelp Corporation
(eHelp), a provider of rich media help authoring software applications. By combining eHelp solutions with the Macromedia authoring family and with its business solutions products, developers will be able to create and deliver rich user
assistance and tutorial content. The purchase price of eHelp was $66.4 million, including direct transaction costs of approximately $0.7 million. The purchase price was comprised of the issuance of approximately 2.4 million shares of the
Companys common stock valued at $42.3 million, $18.9 million in cash, of which $4.9 million was paid as of March 31, 2004, the balance of which remains payable subject to certain indemnification obligations of eHelp, and the assumption of
converted options to purchase 423,000 shares of the Companys common stock with a Black-Scholes fair value of $4.3 million. The corresponding obligations have been included in current liabilities. In connection with the acquisition, the Company
acquired net tangible assets of $8.0 million, including $15.2 million of cash. The acquisition was recorded using the purchase method of accounting. The results of eHelps operations were combined with those of the Company from the date of
acquisition and were not material in fiscal year 2004.



The
purchase price has been allocated based on the estimated fair value of net tangible assets and appraised values of intangible assets acquired as follows (in thousands):

The acquired net
tangible assets of eHelp were allocated in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as follows (in thousands):

|Accounts receivable                      |  |               | 1,849   |  
|Property and equipment and other         |  |               | 962     |  
|Accounts payable and accrued liabilities |  |               | (10,021 | )
|                                         |  |               |         |

The value allocated to
developed technology and trade name and customer list will be amortized over four years on a straight-line basis. The acquired in-process technology was immediately expensed because technological feasibility had not been established and no future
alternative use exists. The value allocated to goodwill of $44.7 million will not be amortized in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (see Note 10) and is attributable to the premium paid for the opportunity for
enhanced revenue growth in the automated user assistance software market. Pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisition is not material to the Companys consolidated operating results.



Fiscal Year 2003 AcquisitionsIn fiscal year 2003, the Company
completed certain acquisitions accounted for as purchase business combinations in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. The aggregate purchase price of these acquisitions was approximately $4.5 million in cash. One of these
business combinations provides for additional consideration of up to $3.5 million, subject to achievement of certain business objectives in fiscal year 2004 as defined in the related purchase agreement. At

In August 2003, the
Company exercised its option to purchase real properties, including land, buildings and related improvements in San Francisco, California, for a total purchase price of $55.0 million. The new facilities, consisting of a parking structure and two
office buildings, will serve as the Companys corporate headquarters where it will conduct various corporate, product development and operational activities. During fiscal year 2004, the Company funded the purchase prices of $14.7 million for
two of three properties, and recorded them in Property and equipment, net on the Companys consolidated balance sheet. For the third property, the Company deposited $2.7 million into escrow in August 2003, and funded the remaining purchase
price of $37.7 million in April 2004 upon the closing of the purchase.



We are currently utilizing the parking structure and expect to occupy the third property in the fourth quarter fiscal year 2005. We will begin occupying the second office building based on future headcount and operational needs, expected to
occur subsequent to fiscal year 2005. Property taxes, insurance and other maintenance costs related to the property purchased in April 2004, which will be utilized within the year, will be capitalized in Construction in progress and will be
depreciated as part of the Building carrying value once the building is occupied. Such costs are otherwise expensed if occupation is expected to exceed one year from date of purchase.



In fiscal year 2004, depreciation and amortization expense was $15.5 million. Depreciation expense for fiscal year 2003 was
$20.4 million, including $1.7 million resulting from the write-down of internally developed software costs. Depreciation and amortization expense for fiscal years 2002 was $36.4 million. In fiscal year 2003, the Company also wrote-off approximately
$14.8 million of fully-depreciated property and equipment.

The Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, in fiscal year 2003, and no longer amortizes goodwill, which had a net book
value of $239.0 million and $201.4 million at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Company

continues to amortize its other intangible assets, including acquired developed technology, over their estimated useful lives. The amortization of acquired
developed technology, which is a component of cost of revenues, was $2.0 million, $6.1 million and $11.3 million in fiscal years 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. The amortization of other intangible assets, excluding acquired developed
technology, was $1.1 million, $1.6 million and $103.2 million in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.



GoodwillIn accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company performed an annual impairment analysis to assess the fair value and recoverability of
its goodwill in the fourth quarter of fiscal years 2004 and 2003. The analysis did not result in an impairment charge on goodwill.

At March 31, 2004, the
goodwill balance increased by $37.4 million from the March 31, 2003 balance of $201.4 million. The increase was due to an addition of $46.1 million primarily related to the December 2003 acquisition of eHelp (see Note 5), offset by a $9.0 million
reduction in goodwill related to the recognition of tax benefit for deferred tax assets resulting from a business combination occurring in a prior period. Because these tax benefits had been fully reserved when the business combination was initially
recorded, SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, requires that recognition of such benefit be reflected as a reduction of goodwill rather than a reduction to the Companys provision for income tax.



Acquired Developed TechnologyIn fiscal year 2003, the
Company compared the unamortized capitalized cost of the acquired developed technology associated with its fiscal year 2001 acquisition of Allaire to the net realizable value of the products. This analysis was performed under SFAS No. 86,
Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $15.7 million for the developed technology asset in fiscal year 2003. This
charge represented the amount by which the carrying value of the developed technology asset exceeded its estimated net realizable value.



Purchased and Other Intangible AssetsAs a result of the impairment of its acquired developed technology, the Company also performed an
impairment analysis on the trade name associated with its fiscal year 2001 acquisition of Allaire. The Company performed the analysis under the guidance of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,
initially comparing the estimated undiscounted cash flows of the trade name to its carrying value. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.7 million for the trade name asset in fiscal year 2003. This charge
represented the amount by which the carrying value exceeded its fair value, estimated by calculating its discounted cash flows.

|11. | Investment in Equity Affiliate
|--- | ------------------------------



The Company recorded losses from its investment in AtomShockwave Corporation, accounted for under the equity method, of $36.0 million during fiscal year
2002. The charge reflected the Companys share of AtomShockwaves losses recorded in this period, as well as the write-down of its investment and the write-off of certain receivables. The Companys investment balance in AtomShockwave
since September 30, 2001 has been zero and as a result, the Company has not recognized its share of AtomShockwaves profits or losses since September 30, 2001, although it held approximately 33% of the outstanding voting shares of AtomShockwave
at March 31, 2004. While the Company has ongoing agreements with AtomShockwave relating to distribution of the Macromedia Shockwave Player and use of the Shockwave trademark, Macromedia has no obligation to fund or otherwise support the activities
of AtomShockwave.



|12. | Restructuring
|--- | -------------



The Company has accounted for its restructuring charges and accruals in accordance with EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee
Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring), EITF Issue No. 88-10, Costs Associated with Lease Modification or Termination, and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 100, Restructuring and
Impairment Charges.



In fiscal year 2002, the Company
executed a restructuring plan to deliver cost synergies associated with its fiscal year 2001 acquisition of Allaire and to better align its cost structure with the weaker business environment, which resulted in restructuring expenses totaling $81.8
million. Restructuring expenses associated with facilities primarily represented estimated future costs related

The Company expects to
make future facility rent payments, net of estimated sublease income, on its contractual lease obligations for these facilities through the end of its obligation periods. These net payments will be recorded as a reduction to the Companys
restructuring accrual. As of March 31, 2004, the restructuring accrual balance primarily represented the estimated future costs of 9 remaining facilities to either cancel or vacate operating leases as well as their related estimated demise and
tenant improvement costs to sublease these facilities, net of estimated sublease income. As of March 31, 2004, future minimum gross lease obligations for the Companys restructured facilities extending through 2011 amounted to $69.4 million,
which will be offset by future sublease income of $38.9 million to be received under contractual sublease arrangements and estimated future sublease income of $11.9 million.



|13. | Commitments and Contingencies
|--- | -----------------------------



Macromedias principal commitments at March 31, 2004 consisted of obligations under operating leases for facilities, purchase commitments and letter
of credit arrangements.



Operating Leases. The Company
leases office space and certain equipment under operating leases, some of which contain renewal and purchase options. In addition, the Company subleases certain office space that is not currently occupied by the Company. For certain of these
operating leases, the Company has entered into agreements to indemnify lessors against certain additional costs through the term of the lease. To date, the Company has not made any significant indemnification payments under such agreements and no
amount has been accrued in its consolidated financial statements with respect to these indemnification guarantees.

Included in the total
minimum gross lease obligations of $136.8 million are rent payment obligations related to restructured facilities. These gross obligations were accrued under the Companys restructurings established during fiscal year 2002 and had a balance of
$69.4 million at March 31, 2004. Future rent payments accrued under the Companys restructurings were reduced by contractual future sublease income of $38.9 million and estimated net future sublease income of $11.9 million, resulting in a net
restructured lease obligation balance of $18.6 million at March 31, 2004.



The Company recorded rent expense, excluding sublease income, of $14.0 million, $13.5 million and $22.4 million in fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. No sublease income was recorded as an offset to rent
expense in fiscal year 2004 and 2003.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)



For fiscal year 2002, the Company recorded sublease income as an offset to rent expense of $7.7 million. Sublease
income received in fiscal year 2004 and 2003 was applied against the Companys restructuring accrual.



Purchase Commitments. In August 2003, the Company exercised its option to purchase certain real property, including land, buildings and related
improvements, in San Francisco, California, for a total purchase price of $55.0 million. The new facilities, which are in immediate proximity to the Companys current headquarters, consist of a parking structure and two office buildings. The
Company has funded the purchase price of $14.7 million for two of these properties with available cash and the titles of these properties were transferred to the Company as of March 31, 2004. For the third property, the Company deposited $2.7
million into escrow and funded the remaining $37.7 million of the purchase price with available cash upon closing of the purchase and upon transfer of title in April 2004.



Other Purchase Obligations. Other significant purchase obligations represent minimum financial commitments made for
which the respective goods or services have not been received as of March 31, 2004. The majority of our other purchase obligations relate to commitments related to information technology and telecommunication services.



Sale-Leaseback. In fiscal year 2002, the Company sold land and an
office building in Redwood City, California, with a consecutive 10-year lease for the space that it currently occupies. The sale resulted in proceeds of $22.1 million, excluding related tenant deposits and fees. The transaction was accounted for as
a sale-leaseback arrangement in accordance with SFAS No. 98, Accounting for Leases, SFAS No. 28, Accounting for Sales with Leasebacks and SFAS No. 66, Accounting for Sales of Real Estate. The transaction resulted in a deferred
gain of approximately $4.5 million, which is classified in other non-current liabilities on the Companys consolidated balance sheets and will be amortized to operating expense over the lease term. The lease is accounted for as an operating
lease, resulting in net rental expense of approximately $1.8 million per year.



Letters of Credit. The Company obtained letters of credit from financial institutions totaling approximately $9.4 million and $11.8 million as of March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, in lieu of security
deposits for leased office space. No amounts have been drawn against the letters of credit.



Legal. From time to time, the Company is involved in various disputes and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. These include disputes and lawsuits related to intellectual property,
mergers and acquisitions, licensing, contract law, distribution arrangements and employee relation matters.



Intellectual Property Indemnification Obligations. The terms of the Companys distribution agreements with its first-tier distributors,
including OEMs and license agreement with enterprise customers, generally provide for a limited indemnification of such distributors and customers against losses, expenses and liabilities arising from third-party claims based on alleged infringement
by the Companys products of an intellectual property right of such third party. The terms of such indemnification often limit the scope of and remedies for, such indemnification obligations and generally include a right to replace an
infringing product. To date, the Company has not had to reimburse any of our distributors and customers for any losses related to these indemnification provisions pertaining to third-party intellectual property infringement claims. For several
reasons, including the lack of prior indemnification claims and the lack of a monetary liability limit for certain infringement cases under the terms of the corresponding agreements with the Companys distributors and customers, the Company
cannot determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to such indemnification provisions.



Other Contingent Liabilities and Commitments. Through its normal course of business, the Company has also entered into other indemnification
agreements or guarantees that arise in various types of arrangements, including those with financial institutions under banking arrangements. To date, the Company has not made any significant payments under such indemnification agreements or
guarantees and no amount has been accrued in its consolidated financial statements with respect to those indemnification agreements or guarantees.

Common Stock to Be Issued. At March 31, 2004, the Company had the following shares available for future issuance upon the exercise of options under
the Companys stock option plans (the Macromedia Plans) (including both outstanding option grants as well as options available for future grants), under previous non-plan stock option grants and under the Companys ESPP (in
thousands):

Stock Option
Plans. The Company currently grants options from: 1) the 1999 Stock Option Plan; 2) the 2002 Equity Incentive Plan; and 3) certain plans assumed by the Company as a result of merger activities. The 1999 Stock Option Plan provides for the
granting of non-qualified stock options to the Companys directors, employees and consultants. The 2002 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the granting of several types of stock-based awards, including incentive and non-qualified stock options
and restricted stock awards to our directors, employees and consultants.



Stock options under the Macromedia Plans are granted at an exercise price equal to fair market value at the time of the grant and typically vest over four years from the date of grant. The stock options expire ten
years from the date of grant and are normally canceled three months after an employees termination from the Company. Any option that becomes unexercisable under the Macromedia Plans, excluding certain Option Plans that were expired, without
having been exercised in full, shall become available for future grant or sale under the respective plan.



In fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, the Company granted non-plan stock options to purchase shares of the Companys common stock to certain
employees, executives and officers. The stock options were granted with an exercise price equal to fair market value on the grant date and have terms similar to options granted under the Companys stock option plans.



In March 2000 the FASB issued FIN No. 44, Accounting for Certain
Transactions Involving Stock CompensationAn Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25. Among other things, FIN No. 44 clarifies the accounting treatment for stock repurchases and exchanges and the criteria for such a transaction to qualify as a
non-compensatory arrangement. On May 4, 2001, the Company announced an offer for existing stock option holders to exchange outstanding stock options for new options to be granted in excess of six months from the date the offer expired, June 4, 2001
(the Option Exchange). In connection with the Option Exchange, the Company cancelled 7.4 million common stock options and on December 21, 2001, re-granted 6.6 million common stock options at an exercise price of $15.99 per share, which
represented fair market value. The Option Exchange did not have an impact on the Companys financial statements in fiscal year 2002.



The options outstanding under the Macromedia Plans include stock options that were assumed by the Company as a result of merger activities. All of the
acquired options have been adjusted to give effect to the respective conversion terms between the Company and companies acquired.

In fiscal years 2003
and 2002, the Company recorded deferred stock compensation, or non-cash stock compensation expense, for stock options issued with an exercise price less than fair value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. The Company recorded compensation
expense related to stock options of approximately $281,000 and $689,000 in fiscal years 2003 and 2002, respectively.



Stock Purchase Plan. The Company adopted the 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan in fiscal year 2002 (the 2001 ESPP). All remaining
available shares under the 1993 Employee Stock Purchase Plan were transferred to the 2001 ESPP in fiscal year 2002. Pursuant to this Plan and subject to certain limitations, employees may purchase, through payroll deductions of 2% to 15% of eligible
compensation, shares of common stock at a price per share that is the lesser of 85% of the fair market value as of the beginning of the offering period or the end of the purchase period. At March 31, 2004, there were no shares remaining for future
purchases under the 2001 ESPP plan.



In July 2003, the Company
adopted the 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the 2003 ESPP). Under the 2003 ESPP, approved by shareholders in July 2003, a total of 600,000 shares of the Companys common stock is reserved for future issuance. Pursuant to this
plan and subject to certain limitations, the aggregate number of shares of the Companys common stock reserved for issuance will increase automatically by 1% of the total number of outstanding shares of the Companys common stock on each
January 1, until January 1, 2010, provided, that the aggregate number of shares issued over the term of this plan shall not exceed 20,000,000 shares. Under this plan, employees may purchase, through payroll deductions of 2% to 10% of eligible
compensation, share of common stock at a price per share that is the lesser of 85% of the fair market value as of the beginning of the offering period or the end of the purchase period, subject to a maximum limit of 500 shares.

|15. | Litigation Settlements
|--- | ----------------------



In fiscal year 2003, the Company reimbursed $2.5 million to one of the insurers in a securities litigation against the Company and certain of the
Companys former officers and directors, which was settled in fiscal year 2002. In fiscal year 2003, the Company also recorded a litigation settlement charge of $1.5 million related to securities litigation against it and certain of
Allaires officers and directors. The parties settlement was expressly contingent on Court approval, which was obtained in December 2003. Partially offsetting these charges, the Company reversed a litigation judgment charge of $2.8
million related to patent claims recorded in fiscal year 2002 following the subsequent settlement of the claims with no payment obligation in fiscal year 2003.



In fiscal year 2002, the Company signed a stipulation of settlement with lead plaintiffs that resolved securities litigation pending against Macromedia
and certain of its former officers and directors since 1997. The settlement amount was $48.0 million, of which $19.5 million was recovered from insurance, net of reimbursable legal fees. As a result, the Company recorded a $28.5 million charge as a
component of other income (expense) in its consolidated statements of operations during fiscal year 2002. Of the $19.5 million of insurance coverage, $2.5 million was subsequently paid by the Company to RLI Corporation as a result of the RLI
settlement in fiscal year 2003. In fiscal year 2002, the Company also recorded a charge of $2.8 million, relating to the settlement of outstanding patent claims between Adobe and Macromedia, which was reversed in fiscal year 2003 as noted above.



|16. | Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
|--- | ----------------------------------



The Company sells its products internationally in U.S. Dollars and certain foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, Japanese Yen and British Pound. The
Company regularly enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to offset the impact of currency fluctuations on certain foreign currency revenues and operating expenses as well as subsequent receivables and payables. At March 31, 2004, the net
notional amount of forward contracts outstanding in U.S. Dollars using the spot exchange rates in effect at March 31, 2004 amounted to $40.9 million. Managements strategy is to reduce the risk to earnings and cash flows associated with changes
in foreign currency exchange rates. During fiscal year 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires that all derivatives be recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Upon adoption, the Company did not
designate any foreign exchange forward contracts as SFAS No. 133 accounting hedges and did not record any transition adjustments.



Cash Flow Hedging. In fiscal year 2003, the Company began designating and documenting foreign exchange forward contracts related to forecasted
transactions as cash flow hedges and as a result, the Company began applying hedge accounting for these contracts. The critical terms of the foreign exchange forward contracts and the forecasted underlying transactions are matched at inception and
forward contract effectiveness is calculated, at least quarterly, by comparing the change in the fair value of the contracts to the change in fair value of the forecasted revenues or expenses, with the effective portion of the fair value of the
hedges recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The Company records any ineffective portion of the hedging instruments in Other income (expense) on its consolidated statements of operations, which were not material in
fiscal years 2004 and 2003. When the underlying forecasted transactions occur and impact earnings, the related gains or losses on the cash flow hedge are reclassified from AOCI to revenues or expenses. In the event it becomes probable that the
forecasted transactions will not occur, the gains or losses on the related cash flow hedges would be reclassified from AOCI to Other income (expense) at that time. All values reported in AOCI at March 31, 2004 will be reclassified to operations in
eight months or less. At March 31, 2004, the outstanding cash flow hedging derivatives had maturities of six months or less.

Balance Sheet
Hedging. The Company manages its foreign currency risk associated with foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities using foreign exchange forward contracts. These derivative instruments are carried at fair value with changes in the fair
value recorded as a component of other income (expense), net on its consolidated statements of operations. These derivative instruments substantially offset the re-measurement gains and losses recorded on identified foreign currency denominated
assets and liabilities. At March 31, 2004, the Companys outstanding balance sheet hedging derivatives had maturities of twelve months or less.



|17. | Income Taxes

The Company has
established a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level that the Company believes is more likely than not to be realized through future taxable income. Approximately $191.6 million of the valuation allowance for deferred tax
assets is attributable to employee stock option deductions, the benefit from which will be allocated to paid-in capital rather than current income when subsequently recognized. Also, approximately $36.8 million of the valuation allowance for
deferred tax assets relates to various acquisitions, the benefit from which will be allocated to goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets related to the acquisition rather than current tax expense when subsequently recognized.



During fiscal year 2002, Macromedia repatriated $50.0 million of non-U.S.
earnings from international subsidiaries which were included in fiscal year 2002 taxable income and, as such, reduced the Companys current year net operating loss. Cumulative undistributed income of international subsidiaries amounted to $31.1
million as of March 31, 2004, which is intended to be permanently reinvested. The amount of income tax expense that would result had such income been repatriated is estimated to be approximately $12.0 million.



As of March 31, 2004, the Company had federal and state net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $519.5 million and $415.2 million, respectively. If not utilized, net operating loss carryforwards will expire in fiscal years 2005 through 2024.



The Company also had research and experimentation credit carryforwards of approximately $29.1 million and $25.7 million for
federal and California income tax purposes, respectively. In addition, the Company had foreign tax credit carryforwards of approximately $7.2 million for federal income tax purposes and Enterprise Zone and Manufacturer Investment credits of $6.7
million for California income tax purposes. If not utilized, the federal research credit carryforwards will expire in fiscal years 2005 through 2024 while the California research credits may be carried forward indefinitely; the foreign tax credit
carryforwards will begin to expire in fiscal year 2005 and will continue through 2008, while the California Enterprise Zone credit may be carried forward indefinitely and the Manufacturer Investment credit will expire in fiscal years 2009 through
2014.



The utilization of net operating loss carryforwards, as
well as research and experimental credit carryforwards, is limited by current tax regulations. These net operating loss carryforwards, as well as research and experimental credit carryforwards, will be utilized in future periods if sufficient income
is generated. The Companys ability to utilize certain loss carryforwards and certain research credit carryforwards are subject to limitations pursuant to the ownership change rules of Internal Revenue Code Section 382.



|18. | Employee Benefit Plans
|--- | ----------------------



The Company maintains 401(k) defined contribution benefit plans that cover all eligible domestic employees who have attained 18 years of age and provide
at least 20 hours of service per week. These plans allow U.S. employees to contribute up to 20% of their pre-tax salary in certain investments at the discretion of the employee. The Company matches a portion of employee contributions, which vest
based on length of employment and are fully vested after three years of employment. Employer contributions, which may be discontinued at the Companys discretion, amounted to $1.9 million, $1.6 million and $2.5 million during fiscal years 2004,
2003 and 2002, respectively.

|19. | Net Income (Loss) Per Share
|--- | ---------------------------



Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and
potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities are composed of incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options.



The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the numerator and
denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share (in thousands, except per share data):

|- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Because the Company reported a net loss in fiscal year 2002, the Company
excluded the impact of stock options in the calculation of diluted net loss per share for fiscal year 2002, as they are anti-dilutive and would result in a reduction of net loss per share. If the Company had reported net income for fiscal year 2002,
the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding would have been 1.9 million shares higher.



The table below presents stock options that are excluded from the diluted net income (loss) per common share because the options exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Companys
common stock for the following years stated, therefore, their effects would be anti-dilutive (shares in thousands):
