KRONOS INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE A - General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments that management of
Kronos Incorporated (the Company or Kronos) considers necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position and results of operations as of and for the interim periods presented pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Companys audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006. The results of operations for the three months ended December 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full fiscal year.

NOTE B - Fiscal Quarters

The Company utilizes a
system of fiscal quarters. Under this system, the first three quarters of each fiscal year end on a Saturday. However, the fourth quarter of each fiscal year will always end on September 30. Because of this, the number of days in the first
quarter (91 days in fiscal 2007 and 92 days in fiscal 2006) and fourth quarter (92 days in fiscal 2007 and 91 days in fiscal 2006) of each fiscal year varies from year to year. The second and third quarters of each fiscal year will be exactly
thirteen weeks long. This policy does not have a material effect on the comparability of results of operations between quarters.

NOTE C - Stock-Based
Compensation

On October 1, 2005, the Company was required to adopt Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share-Based
Payment (FAS 123R), which requires all share-based payments, including grants of stock options, to be recognized in the income statement as an operating expense, based on their fair values.

Prior to adopting FAS 123R, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees (Opinion 25), as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (FAS 123). The Company has applied the modified prospective method
in adopting FAS 123R and, accordingly, periods prior to adoption have not been restated. Under the modified prospective method, compensation cost recognized in the three months ended December 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 include
(a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of October 1, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of FAS 123, and (b) compensation
cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to October 1, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FAS 123R.

On December 30, 2006, the Company had two share-based compensation plans, which are described below (together, the Plans). The compensation cost that has been charged against income for the Plans
during the three months ended December 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was approximately $4.6 million and $3.9 million, respectively. During the three months ended December 30, 2006, the Company also capitalized approximately $0.2
million of these costs relating to its software development activities; none of these costs were capitalized during the three months ended December 31, 2005. As required by FAS 123R, the Company has made an estimate of expected forfeitures and
is recognizing compensation cost only for those stock-based compensation awards expected to vest. The total income tax benefit recognized in the income statement for the three month periods ended December 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 for
share-based payments was approximately $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

Stock Award Plan: In February 2006, the Companys
stockholders approved an amended and restated 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (Award Plan), which was previously adopted in February 2002 and amended in February 2004 and

##### Table of Contents

February 2005. The Award Plan increased the number of shares available for issuance under the plan from 5,000,000 to 9,000,000, clarified the right of the
Board to issue restricted stock units, replaced the limit on the number of shares which may be granted with respect to awards other than options and stock appreciation rights with a share counting formula, and eliminated the ability to add to the
number of shares available for grant any shares of common stock tendered to the Company to exercise an award or any shares withheld from the exercise of an award to cover the resulting tax liability. The Award Plan enables the Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors to utilize various forms of equity awards as defined by the Award Plan, including stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units, as and when they deem necessary. Option awards are generally granted with an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Companys stock at the date of grant. Options granted under the Award Plan during the fiscal years of 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002 are exercisable in equal annual installments over a
four-year period beginning one year from the date of grant and have a contractual life of four years and six months. Restricted stock units granted under the Award Plan during the three months ended December 30, 2006 vest in equal annual
installments over a four-year period beginning one year from the date of grant.

The fair value of each option award issued under the Award Plan was
estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes based option-pricing model with the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Companys stock. The expected term of the options
is based on the Companys historical option exercise data taking into consideration the exercise patterns of the option holders during the options life. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at
the time of the grant.

The Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying cash dividends; therefore, the expected dividend yield is
assumed to be zero.

A summary of option activity under the Award Plan as of December 30, 2006, and changes during the three months then ended is

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

The value of the restricted
stock units is based on the intrinsic value of the award at the date of grant, and the resulting compensation charges are then recognized ratably over the vesting period of the awards.

Restricted stock unit awards were granted to our executive officers in November 2006. Vesting of the restricted stock units granted to the executive officers is subject to a performance goal being met by Kronos for
fiscal 2007. If the performance goal is met, the restricted stock units will vest in four equal annual installments beginning on November 16, 2007. If the performance goal is not met, the restricted stock units will not vest and the grant will

cancelled. Restricted stock unit awards granted to employees, other than to executive officers, in fiscal 2006 and 2007 are not subject to a performance goal
and vest in four equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary date of grant. All of our awards include a service condition in order for vesting to occur.

Restricted stock units do not have common stock voting rights, and the shares underlying the restricted stock units are not considered issued and outstanding until they become vested. We expense the cost of the
restricted stock unit awards, which is determined to be the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant, ratably over the period during which the restrictions lapse.

A summary of restricted stock unit activity under the Award Plan as of December 30, 2006, and the changes during the three months then ended is presented below:

The restricted stock units were granted with an exercise price of $0.01, and vest equally on an annual basis over
a four year period. The market price of the Companys common stock on the date of restricted stock unit grants during the three months ended December 30, 2006 ranged from $33.90 to $35.94.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the options granted during the three months ended December 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, estimated using a
Black-Scholes based option pricing model, was $17.10. The total intrinsic value of options exercised was approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended December 30, 2006 and $7.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005.

Stock Purchase Plan: In July 2005, the Companys Board of Directors voted to amend the 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
(Purchase Plan), which was previously approved for adoption by the stockholders in February 2003. The amendment eliminated the look-back feature previously contained in the Purchase Plan. Under the Purchase Plan, eligible employees may
authorize payroll deductions of up to 10% of their compensation (not to exceed $12,500 in a six month period) to purchase shares at 85% of the fair market value of the Companys common stock at the end of the six-month option period. As
required by FAS 123R, the 15% discount is charged to income as stock-based employee compensation expense.

As of December 30, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, there was approximately $41.8 million and $41.9 million, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plans, including compensation cost
related to stock options, restricted stock units and stock purchase plan shares. That cost at December 30, 2006 is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years. The compensation cost related to stock options, restricted
stock units and stock purchase plan shares is recognized ratably over the vesting periods.

The expected term used to value the shares issued under the
Purchase Plan is assumed to be zero as there is no look-back feature contained in the Purchase Plan.

Cash received from option exercises and stock
purchases under the Plans for the three month period ended December 30, 2006 was $2.4 million. For the three months ended December 31, 2005 the total cash received from option exercises and stock purchases was $5.2 million. The tax benefit
realized for the tax deductions from option exercises totaled $1.1 million for the three month period ended December 30, 2006. For the three months ended December 31, 2005, the tax benefit realized for the tax deductions from option
exercises was $2.7 million.

aggregate consideration paid, which includes approximately $7.8 million of cash paid and $3.1 million of liabilities assumed, was approximately $10.9 million. The amounts allocated to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill were approximately
$3.9 million and $6.7 million, respectively. Due to the timing of the acquisition, the Company has not finalized the allocation of the purchase price. The Company currently anticipates that the allocation of the purchase price will be
completed by March 31, 2007. The results of Time Controls operations, which are not material to the Companys results of operations, have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of
acquisition. As a result of this acquisition, and in support of the premium paid for Time Controls, the Company expects to enhance its distribution network for time and labor solutions. The deferred revenue related to the maintenance and
professional service revenue streams was recorded at the fair value of the Companys remaining performance obligation.

On August 1, 2006, the
Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Unicru, Inc., a leading provider of talent management solutions. In accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), all shares of Unicrus preferred
stock were converted into shares of common stock immediately prior to the merger taking place. Thereafter, each share of Unicrus common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger was converted into the right to receive $4.15 in cash. In
addition, at the effective time of the merger, all outstanding options and warrants were converted into the right to receive a cash payment except for one outstanding Unicru warrant, which the Company assumed. The Company paid $149.2 million in
cash in the aggregate for all of the outstanding capital stock of Unicru, less certain expenses and other deductions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement also enabled the Company to deposit $16 million of the cash consideration paid for Unicrus outstanding capital stock into an escrow fund to secure certain indemnification and other payments under the terms of the
Merger Agreement. On or about August 1, 2008, the balance of the escrow fund in excess of any amounts held for unresolved claims will be distributed to the former holders of Unicru securities.

The results of Unicrus operations have been included in the Companys consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date, August 1,
2006. The acquisition was funded in part by a three-year revolving credit facility with Citizens Bank of Massachusetts under which the Company entered into a promissory note dated July 11, 2006 in the principal amount of up to $100 million. The
Company drew down $97.9 million from the line of credit in connection with the acquisition, and $54.7 million remains outstanding at December 30, 2006.

The Unicru transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities acquired were recorded at their estimated fair values at the effective date of the acquisition. The following
table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):

The deferred revenue related to the maintenance revenue streams, which was recorded at fair value of the
Companys remaining performance obligation, was recorded because the Company had assumed a legal performance obligation as described in Emerging Issues Task Force 01-03, Accounting in a Business Combination for Deferred Revenue of an
Acquiree (EITF 01-03).

In performing the preliminary purchase price allocation, the Company considered, among other factors, its
intention for future use of acquired assets, analyses of historical financial performance and estimates of future performance of Unicrus products. The fair value of intangible assets was based, in part, on a valuation completed by a third
party using an income approach and estimates and assumptions provided by management. The rates utilized to discount net cash flows to their present values were based on the Companys weighted average cost of capital and ranged from 17% to 20%.
These discount rates were determined after consideration of the Companys rate of return on debt capital and equity. The following table sets forth the components of intangible assets associated with the acquisition (dollars in thousands):

As a result of this acquisition, and in support of the premium paid for Unicru, Inc., the Company expects to
extend its market leadership and accelerate the growth of its Human Capital Management platform. Due to the timing of the acquisition, the Company has not finalized the allocation of the purchase price. The Company currently anticipates that the
allocation of the purchase price will be completed by June 30, 2007.

##### Table of Contents

The following table presents the consolidated results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2005 on
an unaudited pro forma basis. It combines Kronos statement of operations data with Unicrus statement of operations data for that period as if the acquisition of Unicru had taken place as of October 1, 2005. The table was prepared on
the basis of estimates and assumptions available at the time of this filing that the Company believes are reasonable, and includes purchase price allocations and adjustments for amortization and interest expense that would have been recorded during
that period (in thousands, except per share data).



|                             |  |                  |        
|---------------------------- |  | ---------------- | -------
|Unaudited                    |  | December 31,2005
|Total revenues               |  | $                | 137,696
|Net income                   |  | $                | 4,147  
|Earnings per share  basic   |  | $                | 0.13   
|Earnings per share  diluted |  | $                | 0.12   

The unaudited pro forma results of operations are for comparative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the
results that would have occurred had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the periods presented or the results which may occur in the future.

Certain acquisition agreements which were previously entered into contain provisions that require the Company to make a guaranteed payment and/or contingent payments based upon profitability of the business unit or if specified minimum
revenue requirements are met. Guaranteed payments are accrued at the time of the acquisition and are included in the purchase price allocation. As of December 30, 2006, the Company has the obligation to pay $4.0 million in guaranteed payments.
These payments will be made at various dates in fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2008 and are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the balance sheet. Contingent payments due under the terms of the agreements are recognized when earned and are
principally recorded as goodwill. However, under certain circumstances, a portion of the contingent payment may be recorded as compensation expense. The provisions for contingent payments expire during fiscal 2009 and 2011. During the three months
ended December 30, 2006, there were approximately $1.0 million of contingent payments earned, all of which were recorded as goodwill. During the three months ended December 31, 2005, there were no contingent payments earned.

NOTE G - Comprehensive Income

NOTE I - Segment Information

FASB Statement No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as
components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The
Companys chief operating decision making group is made up of the Companys Chief Executive Officer and President. While results are evaluated in a number of different ways, the line of business management structure is the primary basis
for which the allocation of resources and financial results are assessed. Prior to August 2006, the Company had one line of business and operating segment, Workforce Management Solutions. This segment is involved in the development,
manufacturing and marketing of workforce management solutions that improve workforce productivity and the utilization of labor resources. On August 1, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of Unicru and added a second line of business and
operating segment, Talent Management Solutions, which integrates with Kronos workforce management products to link sourcing, selection and hiring strategy with actual performance and labor planning. Unicru activity is reflected in
the Companys results of operations since the acquisition date.

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Forward-Looking Statements

This discussion includes certain forward-looking statements about our
business and our expectations, including statements relating to revenues, revenue growth rates, gross margin, earnings per share, future acquisitions, capital expenditures, capitalization of software development costs, income tax rates, available
cash, investments, operating cash flow, stock-based compensation and amortization of intangibles. Any such statements are subject to risks that could cause the actual results to vary materially from expectations. For a further discussion of the
various risks that may affect our business and expectations, see Item 1A. Risk Factors in Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The risks and uncertainties discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q do not reflect the
potential future impact of any mergers, acquisitions or dispositions. In addition, any forward-looking statements represent our estimates only as of the day this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) and should not be relied upon as representing our estimates as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if
our estimates change.

Business Overview

We provide a suite of solutions that automate employee-centric processes and provide tools to optimize the workforce. Our solutions, which include time and labor, scheduling, talent management, human resources, payroll, absence management,
labor activity tracking, data collection, self-service and workforce analytics are designed for a wide range of businesses and organizations from single-site to large multi-site enterprises. We derive revenues from the licensing of our software
solutions, sales of our hardware solutions and by providing professional services and subscription services as well as ongoing customer support and maintenance. An overview of our two operating segments follows (see Note I in the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information relating to our operating segments):

Workforce Management

From the time of Kronos organization in 1977 until the end of fiscal 2006, substantially all of our revenues and
profits were derived from our workforce management solutions, which include time and labor applications and related products and services. These solutions are designed to enable organizations to reduce costs and increase productivity, improve
employee satisfaction, align employee performance with organizational objectives, and put real-time information in the hands of decision makers.

Talent
Management

With the acquisition of Unicru, Inc. in August of 2006, we added a talent management solution that integrates with our workforce management
products to link sourcing, selection, and hiring strategy with actual performance and labor planning. Our talent management solutions are designed to help achieve continuous improvement in workforce quality and performance that can help increase
labor productivity, augment customer service levels, reduce absenteeism and turnover rates, cut hiring time, and enhance both top- and bottom-line results.

Our revenues in the three month period ended December 30, 2006 increased $20.8 million, or
16%, over the same period in fiscal 2006. The growth in revenues was attributable to our core business as well as acquired businesses. The growth in revenues was due to increases in maintenance and product revenues as well as an increase in
subscription revenues, which we began receiving as a result of the Unicru acquisition in August of 2006. During this period, maintenance revenues increased $5.9 million, or 13%, product revenues increased $4.2 million, or 9%, and professional
services revenues were consistent with the same period in the prior year. Subscription revenues during the period were $10.6 million.

Net
income in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 decreased 8% to $5.7 million from $6.2 million, with earnings per share decreasing to $0.18 from $0.19 per diluted share. The decrease in net income as compared to the prior year is primarily due to costs
associated with our strategic growth initiatives, which include costs associated with expanding our talent management offerings as well as costs associated with creating a stronger global presence. These costs include an increase in amortization of
identifiable intangibles as well as interest expense on the revolving credit line that was used to finance a portion of our acquisition of Unicru.

Regarding expectations for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and the remainder of fiscal 2007, we currently anticipate revenue in the range of $154  $159 million for the second fiscal quarter and $647  $660 million for fiscal
2007, with diluted earnings per share in the range of $0.23  $0.28 for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and $1.15  $1.27 for the entire fiscal 2007. We currently expect that the impact of FAS 123R (including outstanding, unvested awards
and new stock and stock-based awards) will be approximately $0.10 for the second quarter and $0.40 for the entire fiscal 2007. Finally, we currently expect amortization of intangible assets to be approximately $0.09 for the second quarter and $0.35
for the entire fiscal 2007.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. These accounting principles
require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and



14



---

##### Table of Contents

assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made.
These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. To the extent
there are material differences between these estimates, judgments or assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected. The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates, judgments and assumptions and which
we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:



| |  |  | Revenue Recognition
| | - |  | -------------------



| |  |  | Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Sales Returns Allowance
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Valuation of Intangible Assets and Goodwill
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Capitalization of Software Development Costs
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Income Taxes
| | - |  | ------------



| |  |  | Business Combinations
| | - |  | ---------------------



| |  |  | Stock-Based Compensation
| | - |  | ------------------------

In many
cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require managements judgment in its application. There are also areas in which managements judgment in selecting among available
alternatives would not produce a materially different result. Our senior management has reviewed these critical accounting policies and related disclosures with our Audit Committee. We have not made any material changes in the policies and estimates
previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2006.

Revenue Recognition  We
license software and sell data collection hardware and related ancillary products to end-user customers through our direct sales force as well as indirect channel customers, which include ADP and other independent resellers. The majority of our
software license revenue is earned from perpetual licenses of off-the-shelf software requiring no modification or customization. The software license, data collection hardware and related ancillary product revenues from our end-user customers and
indirect channel customers are generally recognized using the residual method when:



| |  |  | Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, which is typically when a non-cancelable sales and software license agreement has been signed;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Delivery, which is typically FOB shipping point, is complete for the software (either physically or electronically), data collection hardware and related ancillary
products;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The customers fee is deemed to be fixed or determinable and free of contingencies or significant uncertainties;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Collectibility is probable; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for all undelivered elements, typically maintenance and professional services.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

Although these factors are governed by specific and detailed rules and guidelines related to revenue
recognition, there is often a significant amount of judgment involved in determining the amount of revenue to be recognized for a specific customer arrangement as well as the timing of that revenue. Areas most often affected are:



| |  |  | Determining whether the fee is fixed or determinable;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Determining whether collectibility is probable; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | When multiple elements exist and there is an undelivered element:
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | determining whether undelivered elements are non-essential;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | determining whether vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value for each separate undelivered element exists;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | determining vendor specific objective evidence;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | determining the amount of revenue to be recognized on shipment; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | determining the timing of the recognition of any revenue that is deferred;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In addition, we may change our pricing models in the future, which could result in a different fair value assignment for undelivered elements. This could cause our
future revenue recognition to differ significantly from our historical results.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We base our judgments on the specific
facts and circumstances of the arrangements and our general experience in addressing these subjective factors. Historically, our estimates and assumptions have been accurate and we do not anticipate that this will change significantly in the near
future. However, if our estimates and assumptions are inaccurate in any period, it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is allocated to the delivered elements and is recognized as revenue, assuming all
other conditions for revenue recognition have been satisfied. Substantially all of our product revenue, with the exception of product revenue recognized under Statement of Position 81-1 or subscription revenue, is recognized in this manner. If we
cannot determine the fair value of any undelivered element included in an arrangement, we will defer revenue until all elements are delivered, services are performed or until fair value can be objectively determined.

As part of an arrangement, end-user customers typically purchase maintenance contracts as well as professional services from us. Maintenance services
include telephone and web-based support as well as rights to unspecified upgrades and enhancements, when and if we make them generally available. Professional services are typically deemed to be non-essential to the functionality of the software and
typically are for implementation planning, loading of software, installation of the data collection hardware, training, building simple interfaces, running test data and assisting in the development and documentation of pay rules and best practices
consulting.

Revenues from maintenance services are recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance contract period based on
vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value. Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value is based upon the amount charged when purchased separately, which is typically the contracts renewal rate. Maintenance services are typically
stated separately in an arrangement. We have classified the allocated fair value of revenues pertaining to the contractual maintenance obligations that exist for the 12-month period



16

##### Table of Contents

subsequent to the balance sheet date as a current liability, and the contractual obligations with a term beyond 12 months as a non-current liability.
Revenues from time and material customer support services are recognized as the services are delivered.

Revenues from professional
services are generally recognized based on vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value when:



| |  |  | A non-cancelable agreement for the services has been signed or a customers purchase order has been received;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The professional services have been delivered;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The customers fee is deemed to be fixed or determinable and free of contingencies or significant uncertainties; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Collectibility is probable.
| | - |  | ---------------------------

Vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value is based upon the price charged when these services are sold separately and are typically an hourly rate for professional services and a per-class rate for training. Based upon our experience
in completing product implementations, we have determined that these services are typically delivered within a 12-month period subsequent to the contract signing, and we therefore have classified deferred professional services as a current
liability.

Our arrangements with end-user customers and indirect channel customers do not include any contractual rights of return or
price protection, nor do arrangements with indirect channel customers include any acceptance provisions. Our arrangements with end-user customers generally include our standard acceptance provision. Our standard acceptance provision provides the
end-user customer with a right to a refund if the arrangement is terminated because the product did not meet our published technical specifications. Generally, we determine that these acceptance provisions are not substantive and therefore should be
accounted for as a warranty in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.

At the time we enter into an arrangement, we assess the probability of collection of the fee and the terms granted to the customer. For end-user customers, our typical payment terms include payments based on specific due dates, such that
all payments for the software license, data collection hardware and related ancillary products, as well as training services included in the original arrangement, are ordinarily paid within one year of contract signing. Professional services are
typically rendered on a buy-as-you-go basis such that the customer is invoiced for services on a monthly basis, in arrears. Professional services billings are generally due within 30 days of the invoice date. Our payment terms for indirect channel
customers are less than 90 days and payments are typically due within 30 days of the invoice date.

If the arrangement includes a
substantive acceptance provision, we defer revenue not meeting the criterion for recognition under Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and classify this revenue as deferred revenue. We report the allocated fair
value of revenues related to the product element of arrangements as a current liability because of the expectation that these revenues will be recognized within 12 months of the balance sheet date. Revenue that is deferred due to a substantive
acceptance provision is recognized, assuming all other conditions for revenue recognition have been satisfied, when the uncertainty regarding



17

##### Table of Contents

acceptance is resolved as generally evidenced by written acceptance or payment of the arrangement fee.

If the payment terms for an arrangement are considered extended, other than those arrangements that are financing arrangements as discussed below, we
defer revenue on the arrangement until the payment of the arrangement fee becomes due. The deferred amounts, both product and services, related to arrangements with extended payment terms are removed from deferred revenue and accounts receivable, as
we have determined that these amounts do not represent either a receivable or deferred revenue until the payment becomes due.

Since fiscal
1996, we have had a standard practice of providing creditworthy end-user customers the option of financing arrangements beyond one year. Our policy for recognizing revenue and the timing of the recognition for arrangements that are financed is the
same as our non-financed arrangements. The financed arrangements, which encompass separate fees for software license, data collection hardware and ancillary products, maintenance and support contracts, and professional services, are evidenced by
distinct standard sales, license and maintenance agreements and typically require equal monthly payments. The terms of these arrangements typically range between 18 and 48 months. The short-term component (amounts due within 12 months) of these
financing arrangements is included in accounts receivable on our balance sheet. The long-term component is included in other assets. At the time we enter into an arrangement, we assess the probability of collection and whether the arrangement fee is
fixed or determinable. We consider our history of collection without concessions as well as whether each new transaction involves similar customers, products and arrangement economics to ensure that the history developed under previous arrangements
remains relevant to current arrangements. If the fee is not determined to be collectible, fixed or determinable, we will initially defer the revenue and recognize it when collection becomes probable, which typically is when payment is due, assuming
all other conditions for revenue recognition have been satisfied. As a financing arrangement, in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 we applied a present value factor using annual interest rates ranging from 7.5% to 9%. These rates may vary depending
upon when the financing arrangement is entered into and the length of the financing arrangement.

We also provide customized software
solutions to our customers. Revenue related to the sale of customized software solutions is recognized on a contract accounting basis in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Position 81-1, Accounting for Performance of
Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. The contract accounting is applied based on a percentage-of-completion basis generally representing labor costs incurred relative to total estimated labor costs. If we are not able to
produce reasonably dependable estimates, revenue is recognized upon completion of the project and final acceptance from the customer. If significant uncertainties exist about project completion or receipt of payment, the revenue is deferred until
the uncertainty is resolved. Provisions for estimated losses on contracts are recorded during the period in which they are identified. Deferred revenues are recorded when invoicing exceeds recognized revenues. Revenue derived from the development
and delivery of customized software solutions is included in product revenues. The significant amount of estimation that is involved with percentage-of-completion accounting can have a material impact on the amounts of revenue and related expenses
that are reported in our consolidated financial statements. A number of factors can affect these estimates such as labor rates, utilization and efficiency variances and contract change orders by the customer.

In accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 79-10, Fiscal Funding Clauses in Lease
Agreements, SOP 97-2 requires that all arrangements with governmental entities containing fiscal funding provisions be evaluated to determine the probability of contract cancellation. Some of the factors that we evaluate are our
history with this customer and similar customers in other fiscal funding transactions as well as the governmental units financial condition and past practices.

Commencing upon the completion of our acquisition of Unicru, Inc. during August 2006, we also recognize certain transactions under a subscription revenue accounting model. We follow the provisions of Securities and
Exchange Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists, delivery of the service has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.

Our subscription arrangements provide customers the right to access our hosted software applications. Customers do not have the right to take possession of our software during the hosting arrangement. Subscription revenues are recognized on
a monthly basis over the lives of the contracts. Development and activation revenues and related costs, which generally relate to set up and deployment activities, are deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement. Contracts
generally have a term of between two to five years and are non-cancelable, or provide for significant penalties if cancelled.

Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts and Sales Returns Allowance We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reflect estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. This allowance is based on estimates made by
us after consideration of factors such as the composition of the accounts receivable aging and bad debt history. If the historical data we use to calculate the allowance for doubtful accounts does not reflect the future ability to collect
outstanding receivables, or if the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances and bad debt expense may be required and our future results could be
materially affected. Historically, there has not been a significant amount of deviation between our estimates and actual results and we do not anticipate that this will change in the future.

In addition, we maintain a sales returns allowance to reflect estimated losses for sales returns and adjustments. Sales returns and adjustments are
generally due to incorrect ordering of product, general customer satisfaction issues or incorrect billing. This allowance is established by us using estimates based on historical experience. If we experience an increase in sales returns and
adjustments, additional allowances and charges against revenue may be required. Estimates used to establish the allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns allowance have been consistently applied. If the historical data we use to calculate
these estimates do not properly reflect future returns, then a change in the allowances would be made in the period in which such a determination is made and revenues in that period could be materially affected. Historically, we have not seen a
significant amount of deviation between our estimates and actual results and we do not anticipate that this will change in the future.

Valuation of Intangible Assets and Goodwill In assessing the recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets, we must make assumptions regarding the estimated future cash flows

and other factors to determine the fair value of these assets. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to
record impairment charges against these assets in the reporting period in which the impairment is determined. For intangible assets, this evaluation includes an analysis of estimated future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the
assets over their estimated useful lives. If the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows are insufficient to recover the carrying value of the assets over their estimated useful lives, we will record an impairment charge in the amount by which
the carrying value of the assets exceeds their fair value. For goodwill, the impairment evaluation includes a comparison of the carrying value of the reporting unit for which goodwill is attributable to that reporting units fair value. The
fair value of the reporting unit is based upon the net present value of future cash flows, including a terminal value calculation. Determining these amounts is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These
estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rates as well as future economic and market conditions. We base our fair value estimates on assumptions we
believe to be reasonable but that are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates. However, a 100 basis point increase in the assumed discount rate, which is a significant assumption that affects
terminal value and the net present value of the cash flows, would not have a material effect on our financial statements.If the reporting units estimated fair value exceeds the reporting units carrying value, no impairment
of goodwill exists. If the fair value of the reporting unit does not exceed its carrying value, then further analysis would be required to determine the amount of the impairment, if any.

If we determine that there is an impairment in either an intangible asset or goodwill, we will be required to record an impairment charge in the
reporting period in which the impairment is determined. During fiscal 2006 we completed the annual testing of the impairment of goodwill on our single reporting unit as of July 2, 2006, the annual goodwill impairment measurement date for fiscal
2006. We have also determined that no events or circumstances currently exist that would indicate that either the fair value of the reporting unit has been reduced, or the carrying value of the intangible assets is no longer
recoverable. Therefore, no impairment charges have been recorded in the three months ended December 30, 2006. Additionally, the acquisition of Unicru on August 1, 2006 resulted in approximately $86.2 million in goodwill which will be
treated as a separate reporting unit for impairment testing purposes in accordance with SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

Capitalization of Software Development Costs - Costs incurred in the research, design and development of software for sale to others, which we refer to as software development costs, are charged to expense until technological
feasibility is established. Thereafter, software development costs are capitalized and amortized to product cost of sales on a straight-line basis over the lesser of three years or the estimated economic lives of the respective products.

Capitalized software development costs are stated at the lower of amortized cost or net realizable value, using managements best estimates and
appropriate assumptions and projections at that time. Upon review, if it is determined that the carrying value exceeds net realizable value the asset is written down, which could materially affect our future results. However, a 10% reduction in our
estimated net realizable value would not have a material effect on our financial statements. Historically, we have not seen a significant amount of deviation between our

estimates and actual results and no write-downs have been necessary. We do not anticipate that this will change in the future.

In addition to the software development costs described above, costs incurred in the development of software for internal use are charged to expense
until it becomes probable that future economic benefits will be realized. Thereafter, certain costs are capitalized and amortized to operating expense on a straight-line basis. We determined that, due to the scope of the project and based on the
expected estimated economic life of the software, the capitalized costs related to the replacement of our information technology systems will be amortized over a period of five years. For other projects related to the development of software for
internal use, we will generally amortize the capitalized costs over the lesser of three years or the estimated economic life of the software. We have capitalized approximately $24.9 million, including internal personnel related costs of $6.7
million, related to the replacement of information technology systems since the start of this project in fiscal 2004. This project was substantially completed in November, 2006.

Income Taxes We account for income taxes under the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined
based on differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. When necessary, we record a
valuation allowance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount of future tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized. Significant judgment and estimates are used in
determining our income tax assets and liabilities as well as our income tax provision. The interim tax provision is dependent on the forecast of consolidated current year earnings, tax credits and other permanent items, the most significant of which
are meals and entertainment, the deduction for qualified production activities, permanent effects of FAS 123R and tax free interest income. While we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in
assessing the need for the valuation allowance, there is no assurance that the valuation allowance will be sufficient to cover additional deferred tax assets that may not be realizable. Any 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. Additionally, although we believe that our estimates are reasonable, no assurance can be given that our final tax outcome will not be
different from that which is reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals. Such differences could have a material effect on our income tax provision and net income in the period in which such a determination is made. Historically,
we have not seen a significant amount of deviation between our estimates and actual rates and we do not anticipate that this will change in the future.

Business Combinations - In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, we are required to allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible assets and liabilities and
identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. Any residual purchase price is recorded as goodwill. For our more significant acquisitions, these fair values are determined with the assistance of a third-party valuation
firm and require us to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to cash flows from intangible assets. The estimates are based on historical experience, in combination with information obtained from the management of the
acquired companies, and we believe them to be reasonable at the time they are made. However, these estimates are inherently uncertain, and if unanticipated events and/or circumstances should occur they may affect the accuracy or validity

of these assumptions and estimates. We also make significant estimates when determining the useful lives of our intangible assets, based on the expected
period over which we anticipate generating economic benefits from these assets. Changes to any of these judgments, estimates and assumptions could materially affect the fair values of these assets and require us to record an impairment loss, which
could have a material affect on our future results. Historically, we have not seen a significant amount of deviation between our estimates and actual results and we do not anticipate that this will change in the future.

Stock-Based Compensation - On October 1, 2005, we were required to adopt SFAS 123R, which requires all share-based payments, including grants
of stock options, to be recognized in the income statement as an operating expense, based on their fair values.

We estimate the fair value
of each option award on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes based option-pricing model. Various assumptions are used in these estimations, including:



| |  |  | Expected volatility, which is based on historical volatility of our stock;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Expected option term, which is based on our historical option exercise data taking into consideration the exercise patterns of the option holders during the
options life;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Risk-free interest rate, based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Forfeiture rate.
| | - |  | ----------------

The value of
restricted stock units is based on the intrinsic value of the award at the date of grant.

A 10% unfavorable change in expected volatility
and option term, which represent the most sensitive and judgmental assumptions, would not have a material effect on our financial statements.

Prior to adopting FAS 123R, we accounted for stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. We have applied the modified prospective method in adopting FAS 123R.

The principal factors driving revenue growth in the three month period ended December 30,
2006 were increases in maintenance and product revenues as well as the addition of subscription revenues, which we began receiving as a result of the Unicru acquisition in August of 2006. Maintenance revenues increased $5.9 million, or 13%, product
revenues increased $4.2 million, or 9%, and professional services revenues were consistent with the same period in the prior year. Subscription revenues during the quarter were $10.6 million. The growth was attributable to revenues from our core
business as well as growth in revenues from acquired businesses.

We historically have realized a relatively larger percentage of our
annual revenues and profits in the third and fourth quarters and a relatively smaller percentage in the first and second quarters of each fiscal year.

The increase in product revenues in the three month period ended December 30, 2006 was due to an
increase in software revenues of $3.7 million, or 13%, and an increase in hardware revenues of $0.5 million, or 2%. The increase in software revenues was primarily due to an increase in demand for our Workforce Central suite and related software
modules. Revenues from acquired businesses also contributed to the increase. The increased demand in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 was primarily the result of continued innovation of our existing products and, to a lesser extent, the introduction
of new products and upgrade activity.

The increase in maintenance revenues in the three month period ended December 30, 2006 was
principally the result of expansion of our installed base of software solutions, resulting from an increase in demand for our Workforce Central suite and related software modules in the preceding periods and an increase in the value of maintenance
contracts. This growth was offset in part by a decline in revenues from acquired businesses. The increase in the value of the maintenance contracts was attributable to sales of capacity upgrade licenses and add-on modules to existing customers as
well as contractual cost of living-related increases upon renewal of existing customers. Capacity upgrade and add-on module sales typically result in an increased value of maintenance contracts due to the increased selling price for the products.
Revenue generated by a particular maintenance contract is typically based on the related products selling price.

Professional services revenues in the three month period ended December 30, 2006 were
comparable to the same period ended December 31, 2005. The relatively flat performance in professional services revenues is primarily due to a reduction in utilization rates during the three month period ended December 30, 2006 as compared
to the prior year. This reduction was offset by revenues from acquisitions in the three months ended December 30, 2006. Historically, we have experienced lower utilization rates in our first fiscal quarter than in other quarters during the
fiscal year.

Gross Profit. Gross profit is the result of revenues, less cost of sales. Product cost of sales primarily consists
of salaries, facilities and related expenses for manufacturing personnel and personnel developing and delivering customized software solutions, costs of materials for the manufacturing of certain hardware products, amortization of capitalized
software costs and acquired technology, as well as the cost of royalties paid to third-parties for certain products and stock-based compensation. Service (maintenance, professional services and subscription) cost of sales primarily consists of
salaries, facilities and related expenses for service personnel as well as the cost of maintenance contracts paid to third-parties for certain products and amortization of acquired technology related to our subscription offerings and stock-based
compensation. As the costs incurred related to the development of our products cannot be segregated between development for existing customers and new customers, the cost of developing unspecified product upgrades, which are received by our
customers who maintain a current maintenance program, are included in net operating expenses as engineering, research and development costs.

##### Table of Contents

Total gross margin increased in the three month period ended December 30, 2006 to 59% from 57% in
the comparable period in the prior year. Service gross margins increased during that period due to higher maintenance gross margins, offset in part by lower professional services margins. Product gross margins decreased slightly during this period
as compared to the same period in the prior year. Factors driving the changes in gross margin are described in further detail below. We currently anticipate that gross margin will increase during the remainder of fiscal 2007, primarily due to an
increase in product gross margin as well as an increase in overall services gross margin.

Product gross margin, which consists of hardware
and software revenue and costs, decreased slightly in the three month period ended December 30, 2006 as compared to the comparable period in the prior year. Although product gross margin decreased during this period due to higher amortization
of capitalized software and intangible assets recorded in product cost of sales, this decline was partially offset during the period by a lower proportion of hardware revenue, which typically generates a lower gross margin than software. We
currently anticipate that product margins will increase during the remainder of fiscal 2007.

Maintenance gross margin in the three months
ended December 30, 2006 increased as compared to maintenance gross margin in the same period in the prior year primarily due to decreased costs associated with the elimination of various non-revenue generating positions, which were partially
allocated to maintenance cost of sales in the prior year period.

Professional services gross margin decreased in the three month period
ended December 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower utilization rates during the three months ended December 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Historically, we have
experienced lower utilization rates in our first fiscal quarter than in other quarters during the fiscal year. Partially offsetting the impact of these lower rates are decreased costs associated with the elimination of various non-revenue generating
positions, which were also partially allocated to professional services cost of sales in the three months ended December 31, 2005.

We
currently anticipate that overall services gross margin will improve during the remainder of fiscal 2007, primarily due to an increase in our utilization rates.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses includes sales and marketing expenses, engineering, research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses, amortization of intangible assets and other income, net.

The increase in operating expenses for the three month period ended December 30, 2006 was
principally attributable to investments in personnel and related compensation, overhead and support costs in response to increased customer demand and to support the development of new products and markets. These costs include expenses from acquired
companies as well as our strategic growth initiatives to expand our talent management offerings and to create a stronger global presence and are related to the hiring of additional personnel, annual salary increases, commission costs, overhead and
support costs that total approximately $13.6 million. Also contributing to the increase was amortization of identifiable intangibles, which totaled approximately $1.2 million, as well as interest expense on the revolving credit line that was used to
finance a portion of our acquisition of Unicru of approximately $1.2 million. These increases were offset by a decrease in bad debt provisions resulting from our periodic calculation of our bad debt reserve requirements totaling approximately $0.8
million. The following discussions on each functional area analyze the spending in further detail.

Sales and Marketing Expenses:
Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of personnel and overhead-related expenses for sales and marketing functions, including stock-based compensation, as well as costs associated with advertising, promotions, tradeshows, seminars, training
and other sales and marketing programs (dollars in thousands).

The increase in sales and marketing expense for the three month period ended December 30,
2006 was primarily attributable to investments in personnel and related compensation, overhead and support costs in response to increased customer demand and to support the development of new products and markets, including our strategic growth
initiatives to expand our talent management offerings and create a stronger global presence. These costs include the hiring of additional personnel, annual salary increases, commission costs, overhead and support costs and total approximately $5.9
million.

Engineering, Research and Development Expenses: Engineering, research and development expenses primarily consist of
personnel and overhead-related expenses for engineering functions, including stock-based compensation, as well as costs associated with training and third-party consulting (dollars in thousands).

The increase in engineering, research and development spending for the three month period ended
December 30, 2006 as compared to the comparable period in the prior year was primarily attributable to our continued investment in engineering personnel and their compensation, overhead and support costs, which include the addition of
engineering personnel from acquisitions in fiscal 2006, including our strategic growth initiative to expand our talent management offerings with the acquisition of Unicru, Inc, in August of 2006. These costs include the hiring of additional
personnel, annual salary increases, overhead and support costs and total approximately $5.0 million. This increase in spending was the result of the continued development and support of new products, as well as costs associated with the
globalization of these and our other products. The significant project development efforts in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 were principally related to further development and enhancement of the Workforce Central suite, including Workforce HR, Workforce Payroll software, Workforce Scheduler and Workforce Scheduler with Optimization, Workforce Acquisition, Workforce Analytics, Workforce Timekeeper, Workforce Attendance, Workforce Analytics, Altitude®, Total Care, and the Kronos 4500 terminal.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel and other overhead-related expenses,
including stock-based compensation, for administrative, information technology, finance, legal and human resources support functions (dollars in thousands).

The increase in general and administrative expenses in the three month period ended
December 30, 2006 was primarily due to investments in personnel and related compensation, overhead and support costs in response to increased customer demand and to support the development of new products and markets, including our strategic
growth initiatives to expand our talent management offerings and to create a stronger global presence. These costs, including the hiring of additional personnel, annual salary increases, overhead and support costs, total approximately $2.7 million
and were offset in part by a decrease in bad debt provisions, which totaled approximately $0.8 million, resulting from our periodic calculation of our bad debt reserve requirements. The decrease in reserve requirements is in response to a
strengthening of our overall accounts receivable aging.

Amortization of Intangible Assets and Other Income, Net: Amortization of
intangible assets includes the amortization expense related to certain identified intangible assets recorded by us related to acquisitions of businesses. Customer related intangible assets and intangible assets related to maintenance relationships
and technology are generally amortized over lives ranging between 7 and 12 years. Intangible assets related to non-compete agreements are generally amortized over the life of the related non-compete agreement.

Other income, net is principally interest income earned from cash as well as investments in marketable securities and financing arrangements, offset by
interest expense on borrowings (dollars in thousands).

The increase in amortization of intangible assets in the three month period ended
December 30, 2006, as compared to the same period in the prior year, is principally attributed to amortization charges related to acquisitions completed since last year, including the acquisition of Unicru, Inc. in August of 2006.

The decrease in other income, net in the three month period ended December 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior year, is
principally attributed to approximately $1.2 million in interest expense related to the revolving credit facility used to finance a portion of the Unicru acquisition. This expense was offset by foreign exchange gains, primarily related to
intercompany balances with our foreign subsidiaries, US dollar-denominated cash balances and accounts receivable held by our foreign subsidiaries, totaling approximately $0.8 million.

Income Taxes.The provision for income taxes as a percentage of pre-tax income was 34% for the three month period ended December 30, 2006 as
compared to 35.3% for the comparable period in the prior year. The provision for income taxes for the three month period ended December 30, 2006 was favorably impacted by certain research and development tax credits in the U.S. and Canada. We
currently anticipate that the income tax rate will range approximately between 33.5%  34% for the remainder of the fiscal year.

In
June 2006, the FASB released Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes  an Interpretation of FAS 109, or FIN 48, which we must adopt for our fiscal year ending September 30, 2008. We are currently assessing
the impact of the adoption of FIN 48 and will incorporate the results in the first quarter of our Fiscal 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We fund our business through cash generated by operations. If near-term demand for our products weakens or if significant anticipated
sales in any quarter do not close when expected, the availability of such funds may be adversely impacted.

On July 11, 2006, we
entered into a credit agreement with Citizens Bank of Massachusetts regarding a three-year, $100 million revolving credit facility. On August 1, 2006

we completed the acquisition of Unicru, Inc. for $149.2 million in cash. We drew down $97.9 million from the line of credit in order to complete this
transaction; approximately $17.0 million was repaid during fiscal 2006 and $26.1 was repaid during the first quarter of fiscal 2007.

The decrease in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities was due primarily to payments on
our revolving note, repurchases of common stock, cash paid for acquired businesses, the purchase of property, plant and equipment and capitalized software development costs. These investments were partially offset by cash generated from operations
and cash proceeds from stock option exercises. These same factors also contributed to the decrease in working capital during the period.

The increase in cash provided by operations in the three month period ended December 30, 2006
was primarily due to an increase in net income before non-cash stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, an increase in collections of accounts receivable, lower decreases in deferred professional services revenues as we near
completion of our transition to billing our customers in arrears for professional services as the services are delivered as well as accounts payable, accrued compensation and other liabilities, and an increase in deferred product revenues. These
factors are partially offset by a decrease in the rate of growth of deferred maintenance revenues and a decrease in taxes payable.

Our use
of cash for property, plant and equipment in the three month period ended December 30, 2006 includes investments in information systems and infrastructure to improve and support our expanding operations. To date, we have invested approximately
$31.6 million related to the replacement of information technologies, of which $24.9 million has been capitalized, with the remainder expensed through operations. Our use of cash for the acquisition of businesses in the three month period ended
December 30, 2006 was principally related to the acquisition of Time Controls on November 8, 2006. Our use of cash for the acquisition of businesses in the three month period ended December 30, 2005 was principally related to the
acquisition of Compu-Cash Systems on December 19, 2005. Please refer to Note F in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details. We continue to assess potential acquisition opportunities. Excess cash reserves
not required for operations, investments in property, plant and equipment or acquisitions are used to pay down the line of credit.

The common stock repurchased under our stock repurchase program is used to partially cover the shares
required for our employee stock award plans and employee stock purchase plan.

We lease certain office space, manufacturing facilities and
equipment under long-term operating lease agreements. In addition, certain acquisition agreements contain provisions that require us to make a guaranteed payment and/or contingent payments based upon profitability of the business unit or if

We believe that we have adequate cash and investments and operating cash flow to fund our investments in property, plant and equipment, software
development costs, cash requirements under operating leases, cash payments related to acquisitions, if any, borrowings and any additional stock repurchases for the foreseeable future.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 30, 2006.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

We are exposed to a variety of market risks, including changes in interest rates affecting the return on our investments and borrowings as well as foreign currency fluctuations. Refer to Note A, Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2006 for further discussion regarding marketable securities and foreign currency forward exchange contracts.
Our marketable securities that expose us to market rate risks are comprised of debt securities. A decrease in interest rates would not adversely impact interest income or related cash flows pertaining to securities held at December 30, 2006, as
all of these securities have fixed rates of interest. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would not adversely impact the fair

##### Table of Contents

value of these securities by a material amount due to the size and average duration of the portfolio. Our exposure to market risk for fluctuations in foreign
currency relate primarily to the amounts due from subsidiaries. Exchange gains and losses related to amounts due from subsidiaries have not been material to date. For foreign currency exposures existing at December 30, 2006, a 10% unfavorable
movement in the foreign exchange rates for each subsidiary location would not expose us to material losses in earnings or cash flows. This calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the same direction relative to the U.S. dollar.
Additionally, a 10% unfavorable movement in the LIBOR rate, on which interest on our borrowings is based, would not expose us to material losses in earnings or cash flows.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures
|------- | -----------------------

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our President and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 30, 2006. The term disclosure
controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and
procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the
companys management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well
designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our
President and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 30, 2006, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls.No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended
December 30, 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedi

From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings arising in the normal course
of business. None of the legal proceedings in which the Company is currently involved is considered material by the Company.



|Item 1A. | Risk Fact
ors
|-------- | -------------

Certain Factors That May Affect Future Operating Results

Except for historical matters, the matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements within the meaning
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Act). We desire to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Act and include this statement for the express purpose of availing ourselves of the protection of the
safe harbor with respect to all forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

Actual operating results may differ from
those indicated by forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and presented elsewhere by us from time to time because of a number of factors, including the potential fluctuations in quarterly results, timing and acceptance
of new product introductions by us and our competitors, the dependence on our time and labor product line, the ability to attract and retain sufficient technical personnel, the protection of our intellectual property and the potential infringement
on our intellectual property rights, competitive pricing pressure, and the dependence on alternate distribution channels and on key vendors, as further described below. We have not made any material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed
in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2006.

Potential Fluctuations in Results. Our operating
results, including revenue growth, sources of revenue, effective tax rate and liquidity, may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, including general economic conditions and related effects on workforce size, the purchasing patterns of our
customers, the diversion of public companies resources to address compliance with regulatory requirements on internal controls, the mix of products and services sold, the ability to effectively integrate acquired businesses into our
operations, the timing of the introduction of new products and product enhancements by us and our competitors, the strategy employed by us in the human resources and payroll market, market acceptance of new products and competitive pricing pressure.
We historically have realized a relatively larger percentage of our annual revenues and profits in the third and fourth quarters and a relatively smaller percentage in the first and second quarters of each fiscal year, although there can be no
assurance that this pattern will continue. In addition, substantially all of our product revenue and profits in each quarter result from orders received in that quarter. If near-term demand for our products weakens or if significant anticipated
sales in any quarter do not close when expected, our revenues for that quarter will be adversely affected. We believe that our operating results for any one period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

Integration of Acquired Businesses. As part of our overall growth strategy, we have acquired from time to time resellers of our products
and, in certain instances,



38



---

##### Table of Contents

complementary business lines. Going forward, we anticipate continuing this growth strategy, particularly related to strategic acquisitions of complementary
business lines and technologies. This could potentially include material transactions, including some outside of the U.S., which are more complex and may present greater challenges in achieving the intended strategic and financial goals. Even if we
are successful in identifying and acquiring businesses strategic to us, these acquisition activities involve a number of risks, including:



| |  |  | We may find the acquired business does not further our business strategy, that we overpaid for the company or the economic assumptions underlying our acquisition
decision have changed or were not accurate;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Difficulties integrating the acquired companies products and services and customer base with our existing product and service offerings;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Difficulties integrating the operations, technology and personnel of the acquired company, or retaining the key personnel of the acquired company critical to its
continued operation and success;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Disruption of our ongoing business and diversion of managements attention by transition or integration issues and the complexity of managing geographically or
culturally diverse enterprises;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Difficulties maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies across locations and businesses;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Litigation by terminated employees or third parties; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Problems or liabilities associated with product quality, technology and legal contingencies relating to the acquired business or technology, such as intellectual
property matters.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These and other factors could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations,
particularly in the case of material acquisitions, foreign acquisitions or multiple acquisitions in a short period of time. Acquisitions may also have a negative effect on our earnings per share. If we were to proceed with one or more significant
acquisitions or investments in which the consideration included cash, we could be required to use a substantial portion of our available cash to consummate such acquisition or investment. To the extent we issue shares of our capital stock or other
rights to purchase our capital stock, including options and warrants, existing stockholders may be diluted and earnings per share may decrease. In addition, acquisitions and investments may result in the incurrence of debt, large one-time
write-offs, such as acquired in-process research and development costs, and restructuring charges. They may also result in goodwill and other intangible assets that are subject to impairment tests, which could result in future impairment charges.

Competition. The human capital management market, which includes time and labor, scheduling, talent management, human resources,
payroll, absence management, labor activity tracking, data collection, self-service and workforce analytics solutions are highly competitive. Technological changes such as those allowing for increased use of the Internet have resulted in new
entrants into the market. Increased competition could adversely affect our operating results through price reductions or loss of market share. With our efforts to expand our workforce management offering through the introduction of our human
resources and payroll product suite and the expansion of our scheduling product offerings, as well as our expansion into the talent management market, we will continue to face strong competition. Many of these competitors may be able to adapt more
quickly to new or emerging technologies or to devote greater resources to the



39

##### Table of Contents

promotion and sale of their human resources and payroll products. Many of our human resources and payroll competitors have significantly greater financial,
technical and sales and marketing resources than us, as well as more experience in delivering human resources and payroll solutions. Although we believe our organization has core competencies that position us strongly in the marketplace, maintaining
our technological and other advantages over competitors will require continued investment in research and development as well as marketing and sales programs. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient resources to make such investments
or be able to achieve the technological advances necessary to maintain our competitive advantages. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully in the human resources and payroll as well as talent management markets, and
our failure to do so could have a material adverse impact on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Dependence on Time and Labor Product Line. To date, the substantial majority of our revenues have been attributable to sales of time and labor systems and related services. Although we have introduced products for talent management,
scheduling solutions and the licensed human resources and payroll market, we expect that our dependence on the time and labor product line for revenues will continue for the foreseeable future. Competitive pressures or other factors could cause our
time and labor products to lose market acceptance or experience significant price erosion, adversely affecting the results of our operations.

Product Development and Technological Change. Continual change and improvement in computer software and hardware technology characterize the markets for human capital management systems. Our future success will depend largely on our
ability to enhance the capabilities and increase the performance of our existing products and to develop new products and interfaces to third-party products on a timely basis to meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers. Although we
are continually seeking to further enhance our offerings and to develop new products and interfaces, there can be no assurance that these efforts will succeed, or that, if successful, such product enhancements or new products will achieve widespread
market acceptance, or that our competitors will not develop and market products that are superior to our products or achieve greater market acceptance.

Dependence on Alternate Distribution Channels. We market and sell our products through our direct sales organization, independent resellers and ADP under an original equipment manufacturer agreement. In the
first three months of fiscal 2007, approximately 8% of our revenue was generated through sales to resellers and ADP. A reduction in the sales efforts of either our major resellers or ADP, or termination or changes in their relationships with us,
could have a material adverse effect on the results of our operations.

Attracting and Retaining Sufficient Technical Personnel for
Product Development, Support and Sales. We have encountered intense competition for experienced technical personnel for product development, technical support and sales and expect such competition to continue in the future. Any inability to
attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified technical personnel could adversely affect our ability to produce, support and sell products in a timely manner.

Stock Option Accounting Rules May Have a Significant Adverse Affect on our Operating Results.
We have a history of using broad-based employee stock option programs to hire, incentivize and retain our workforce in a competitive marketplace. In December 2004, the FASB issued FAS 123R, which requires all companies to measure compensation
cost for all share-based payments, including employee stock options, at fair value. We adopted FAS 123R on October 1, 2005, the beginning of our 2006 fiscal year. The actual impact on future periods will depend on a number of factors, including
our stock price and the level of future grants and awards made from our stock-based compensation plans. The implementation of FAS 123R has had no adverse effect on our balance sheet or total cash flows, but it does impact cash flows from operations,
cash flows from financing activities, cost of sales, gross profit, operating expenses, net income and earnings per share. Estimates of and assumptions about forfeiture rates, volatility and interest rates are used to calculate stock-based
compensation; a significant change in these estimates could materially affect our operating results.

Protection of Intellectual
Property. We have developed, and through our acquisitions of businesses and software, acquired, proprietary technology and intellectual property rights. Our success is dependent upon our ability to further develop and protect our
proprietary technology and intellectual property rights. We seek to protect products, software, documentation and other written materials primarily through a combination of trade secret, patent, trademark and copyright laws, confidentiality
procedures and contractual provisions. While we have attempted to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights, it is unknown whether we have been or will be successful in doing so.

Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or obtain and use information
that is regarded as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult. While we are unable to determine the extent to which piracy of our software products exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent problem,
particularly in foreign countries where the laws may not protect proprietary rights as fully as in the United States. We can offer no assurance that we can adequately protect our proprietary rights or that our competitors will not reverse engineer
or independently develop similar technology.

Infringement of Intellectual Property Rights. We cannot provide assurance that others
will not claim that our developed or acquired intellectual property rights infringe on their intellectual property rights or that we do not in fact infringe on those intellectual property rights. Any litigation regarding intellectual property rights
could be costly and time-consuming and divert the attention of our management and key personnel from business operations. The complexity of the technology involved in our products and the uncertainty of intellectual property litigation increase
these risks. Claims of intellectual property infringement might also require us to enter into costly royalty or license agreements, and in this event, we may not be able to obtain royalty or license agreements on acceptable terms, if at all. We may
also be subject to significant damages or an injunction against the use of our products. A successful claim of patent or other intellectual property infringement against us could cause immediate and substantial damage to our business and financial
condition.
