NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Table amounts in thousands, except per share data)


1. Nature of Operations and Financial Statement Presentation
Nature of Operations
Agilysys is a leading developer and marketer of proprietary enterprise software, services and solutions to the hospitality industry. The company specializes in market-leading point-of-sale, property management, inventory & procurement and mobile & wireless solutions that are designed to streamline operations, improve efficiency and enhance the guest experience. Agilysys serves casinos, resorts, hotels, foodservice venues, stadiums and cruise lines. Agilysys operates extensively throughout North America, Europe and Asia, with corporate services located in Alpharetta, GA, EMEA headquarters in Cheshire, UK, and APAC offices in Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia.

Following the divestiture of the Technology Solutions Group in August 2011 and the Retail Solutions Group (RSG) in July 2013, Agilysys operates as one operating segment and as a pure play software-driven solutions provider to the hospitality industry. The sale of RSG represented a disposal of a component of an entity. As such, the operating results of RSG have been reported as a component of discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented (see Note 4).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include our accounts consolidated with our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Our fiscal year ends on March 31st. References to a particular year refer to the fiscal year ending in March of that year. For example, fiscal 2014 refers to the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014.

Our unaudited interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations relating to interim financial statements.

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2013, as well as the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow for the six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, are unaudited. However, these financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as those in the audited annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a recurring nature necessary to fairly present the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows have been made. Further, we have evaluated all significant events occurring subsequent to the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and through the filing of this Quarterly Report.

These unaudited interim financial statements should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on June 14, 2013.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A detailed description of our significant accounting policies can be found in the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed therein.

Changes to Prior Period Presentation.  In the first quarter of fiscal 2014, as a result of increased visibility into our services organization, certain costs previously classified in product development expenses, were recorded in cost of goods sold to more properly reflect the nature of these expenses. The portion of these expenses that was erroneously recorded in previous periods was immaterial to the overall financial statements. Prior period presentation has been modified to conform to the current presentation.

Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements.

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 clarifies guidance and eliminates diversity in practice on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. This new guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2013-11 will have our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. ASU 2012-02 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is then necessary to perform the currently prescribed quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset with its carrying value. Otherwise, the quantitative impairment test is not required. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012 and early adoption is permitted. We adopted this guidance as of April 1, 2013, and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which amends certain provisions in ASC 220 Comprehensive Income. These provisions require the disclosure of significant amounts that are reclassified out of other comprehensive income into net income in its entirety during the reporting period. These provisions are effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance as of April 1, 2013, and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

In March 2013, FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters: Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity, an amendment which allows an entity to release cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. This is effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

Management continually evaluates the potential impact, if any, of all recent accounting pronouncements on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures and, if significant, makes the appropriate disclosures required by such new accounting pronouncements.

3. Acquisitions
On June 10, 2013, Agilysys purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of TimeManagement Corporation (TMC), a privately-owned Minneapolis-based technology provider with solutions that streamline workforce management environments for hospitality operators. This technology based acquisition is consistent with the core value we provide to the industry and integrates with our point-of-sale, inventory and procurement systems, including InfoGenesis™ point of sale system and Eatec® inventory and procurement solution. The purchase consideration consisted of $1.8 million in cash paid and $1.8 million of contingent consideration. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $1.8 million at the date of acquisition and is expected to be paid out over the next six years and payments could vary based on actual revenue during that time. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined by calculating the probability-weighted earn-out payments based on the assessment of the likelihood that certain milestones would be achieved. The acquisition was funded with cash on hand. Management concluded that this acquisition was not a material acquisition under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations. The operations of the purchased business have been included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the date of acquisition and did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
The following is a summary of the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the acquisition:

The goodwill of approximately $3.4 million arising from the acquisition consists largely of synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of Agilysys and TMC. The goodwill from this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes over a period of 15 years.

4. Discontinued Operations

Sale of Assets of RSG - Fiscal 2014

On July 1, 2013, we completed the sale of our RSG business to Kyrus Solutions, Inc. (Kyrus), an affiliate of Clearlake Capital Group, L.P., for total consideration of approximately $37.6 million in cash, including a working capital adjustment of $3.1 million. Upon the close of the transaction, the aggregate purchase price was reduced by fees of approximately $1.6 million for transaction related costs, resulting in net proceeds received of approximately $36.0 million. In addition to the purchase agreement, we entered into a transition services agreement (TSA) with Kyrus, under which we provide certain transitional administrative and support services to Kyrus through December 31, 2013 with the possibility of a one month extension.

5. Restructuring Charges
We recognize restructuring charges when a plan that materially changes the scope of our business or the manner in which that business is conducted is adopted and communicated to the impacted parties, and the expenses have been incurred or are reasonably estimable.

Fiscal 2014 Restructuring Activity

In the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we announced restructuring actions to better align corporate functions and to reduce operating costs, following the sale of RSG. These restructuring activities are expected to be completed in fiscal 2014. We recorded $0.5 million in restructuring charges during the first half of fiscal 2014, comprised of severance and other employee related benefits. We expect to incur approximately $0.2 million in additional restructuring charges during the remainder of fiscal 2014 for severance and related employee benefits.

Fiscal 2012 Restructuring Activity

In fiscal 2012, we took steps to realign services and costs, including the relocation of our corporate services from Solon, Ohio to Alpharetta, Georgia. Since 2012, as previously disclosed, we have recorded $12.1 million in restructuring charges related to the fiscal 2012 restructuring activity. As of September 30, 2013, there was no further liability for fiscal 2012 restructuring activity.

Fiscal 2009 Restructuring Activity

During fiscal 2009, we took steps to realign our cost and management structure. Since 2009, as previously disclosed, we have incurred charges totaling approximately $19.0 million related to the fiscal 2009 restructuring activity. As of September 30, 2013, we had a remaining liability of approximately $0.1 million recorded for fiscal 2009 restructuring activity. We expect to incur minimal additional restructuring charges in fiscal 2014 for ongoing facility obligations.

Capitalized software development costs that are internally developed are carried on our balance sheet at net realizable value, net of accumulated amortization. At September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the net realizable value of our software development costs not in service was $11.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively. We capitalized approximately $2.9 million and $0.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $5.8 million and $1.6 million during the six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization has not yet begun as of September 30, 2013 for items that are not in service on that date. Amortization expense relating to developed technology software intangible assets for the three and six months September 30, 2012 was $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and is included in Products cost of goods sold.

For the three and six months ended September 30, 2013, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the intra-period tax allocation rules associated with the discontinued operations. Other items affecting the rate include a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits attributable to the expiration of statute of limitations, recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.

For the three and six months ended September 30, 2012, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the intra-period tax allocation rules associated with the discontinued operations. Other items affecting the rate include recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.

Because of our losses in prior periods, we have recorded a valuation allowance offsetting substantially all of our deferred tax assets. The amount of the valuation allowance, however, could be reduced in the near term. The exact timing and the

13



portion of the valuation allowance released are subject to change based on the level of profitability that we are able to achieve for the remainder of fiscal 2014 and our visibility into future period results. We expect that any release of the valuation allowance will be recorded as an income tax benefit or an adjustment to paid-in capital at the time of release, significantly increasing our reported net income. Our recorded tax rate may increase in subsequent periods following a significant release of the valuation allowance and our net income may be reduced in periods following the release. Any valuation allowance release will not affect the amount of cash paid for income taxes.


9. Commitments and Contingencies

Agilysys is the subject of various threatened or pending legal actions and contingencies in the normal course of conducting its business. We provide for costs related to these matters when a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The effect of the outcome of these matters on our future results of operations and liquidity cannot be predicted because any such effect depends on future results of operations and the amount or timing of the resolution of such matters. While it is not possible to predict with certainty, management believes that the ultimate resolution of such individual or aggregated matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

On April 6, 2012, Ameranth, Inc. filed a complaint against us for patent infringement in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. The complaint alleges, among other things, that point-of-sale and property management and other hospitality information technology products, software, components and/or systems sold by us infringe three patents owned by Ameranth purporting to cover generation and synchronization of menus, including restaurant menus, event tickets, and other products across fixed, wireless and/or internet platforms as well as synchronization of hospitality information and hospitality software applications across fixed, wireless and internet platforms. The complaint seeks monetary damages, injunctive relief, costs and attorneys fees. At this time, we are not able to predict the outcome of this lawsuit, or any possible monetary exposure associated with the lawsuit.  However, we dispute the allegations of wrongdoing and are vigorously defending ourselves in this matter.

On February 28, 2013 we participated in a mediation that resulted in a tentative agreement to resolve the wage and hour putative class action lawsuit filed against the company on July 9, 2012, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.  A motion for preliminary approval of a proposed settlement in the amount of $1.53 million was filed with the court on June 6, 2013, and a motion for approval of a revised proposed settlement in the amount of $1.48 million was filed with the court on October 18, 2013.  This amount was accrued at March 31, 2013 and recorded within "Accrued liabilities" on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average basic shares outstanding. The outstanding shares used to calculate the weighted average basic shares excludes 283,596 and 241,412 of restricted shares and performance shares at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, as these shares were issued but were not vested and, therefore, not considered outstanding for purposes of computing basic earnings per share at the balance sheet dates.

Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the effect of all potentially dilutive securities on earnings per share. We have stock options, stock-settled appreciation rights ("SSARs") and unvested restricted shares that are potentially dilutive securities. When a loss is reported, the denominator of diluted earnings per share cannot be adjusted for the dilutive impact of share-based compensation awards because doing so would be anti-dilutive. In addition, when a loss from continuing operations is reported, adjusting the denominator of diluted earnings per share would also be anti-dilutive to the loss per share, even if the entity has net income after adjusting for a discontinued operation. Therefore, for all periods presented, basic weighted-average shares outstanding were used in calculating the diluted net loss per share.

11. Share-based Compensation

We may grant non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock-settled stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, and restricted share units for up to 3.0 million common shares under our 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (“the 2011 Plan”). The maximum number of shares subject to stock options or SSARs that may be granted to an individual in a calendar year is 800,000 shares, and the maximum number of shares subject to restricted shares or restricted share units that may be granted to an individual in a calendar year is 400,000 shares. The maximum aggregate number of restricted shares or restricted share units that may be granted under the 2011 Plan is 1.0 million.

We have a shareholder-approved 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), as well as, a 2000 Stock Option Plan for Outside Directors and a 2000 Stock Incentive Plan that still have vested awards outstanding. Awards are no longer being granted from these incentive plans.

We may distribute authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares to satisfy share option and appreciation right exercises or restricted share and performance share awards.

We record compensation expense related to stock options, stock-settled stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, and performance shares granted to certain employees and non-employee directors based on the fair value of the awards on the grant date. The fair value of restricted share and performance share awards is based on the closing price of our common shares on the grant date. The fair value of stock option and stock-settled appreciation right awards is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, which includes assumptions regarding the risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, life of the award, and the volatility of our common shares.

As of September 30, 2013, total unrecognized stock based compensation expense related to non-vested performance shares was $0.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average vesting period of 0.6 years.

12. Fair Value Measurements

We estimate the fair value of financial instruments using available market information and generally accepted valuation methodologies. We assess the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy. The hierarchy indicates the extent to which pricing inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Level 1 inputs include unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities and are the most observable. Level 2 inputs include unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities that are either directly or indirectly observable, or other observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity rates, and yield curves. Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include our own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The use of observable and unobservable inputs is reflected in the hierarchy assessment disclosed in the tables below.
 
There were no significant transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 during the six months ended September 30, 2013.

The recorded value of the corporate-owned life insurance policies is adjusted to the cash surrender value of the policies obtained from the third party life insurance providers, which are not observable in the market, and therefore, are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the cash surrender value of these policies are recorded within “Other expenses (income), net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined by calculating the probability-weighted earn-out payments based on the assessment of the likelihood that certain milestones would be achieved.

Intangible assets are valued at their estimated fair value at time of acquisition. We evaluate the fair value of our definite-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets on an annual basis, or in interim periods if indicators of potential impairment exist. The income approach using “the relief from royalty method” was used to value indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Restructuring liabilities primarily consist of one-time termination benefits to former employees and ongoing costs related to long-term operating lease obligations. The recorded value of the termination benefits to employees is adjusted to the expected remaining obligation each period based on the arrangements made with the former employees. The recorded value of the ongoing lease obligations is based on the remaining lease term and payment amount, net of sublease income plus interest, discounted to present value. Changes in subsequent periods resulting from revisions to either the timing or amount of estimated cash flows over the remaining future periods are measured using the credit-adjusted, risk-free rate that was used to measure the restructuring liabilities initially.

The inputs used to value the our goodwill, intangible assets, capitalized software development, and restructuring liabilities are not observable in the market and therefore, these amounts are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Item 2. Managements’ Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

In “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (“MD&A”), management explains the general financial condition and results of operations for Agilysys and subsidiaries including:

—    what factors affect our business;
—    what our earnings and costs were;
—    why those earnings and costs were different from the year before;
—    where the earnings came from;
—    how our financial condition was affected; and
—    where the cash will come from to fund future operations.

The MD&A analyzes changes in specific line items in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and provides information that management believes is important to assessing and understanding our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q updates information included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This discussion should read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes that appear in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report as well as our Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 2013. Information provided in the MD&A may include forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual results to be materially different from those contained in the forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Information” on page 34 of this Quarterly Report and Item 1A “Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 for additional information concerning these items. Management believes that this information, discussion, and disclosure is important in making decisions about investing in Agilysys.

Overview

Agilysys is a leading developer and marketer of proprietary enterprise software, services and solutions to the hospitality industry. The company specializes in market-leading point-of-sale, property management, inventory & procurement and mobile & wireless solutions that are designed to streamline operations, improve efficiency and enhance the guest experience. Agilysys serves casinos, resorts, hotels, foodservice venues, stadiums and cruise lines. Agilysys operates extensively throughout North America, Europe and Asia, with corporate services located in Alpharetta, GA, EMEA headquarters in Cheshire, UK, and APAC offices in Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia.

Following the divestiture of the Retail Solutions Group (RSG) in July 2013, Agilysys operates as one operating segment and as a pure play software-driven solutions provider to the hospitality industry. Our top priority is increasing shareholder value by improving operating and financial performance and profitability growing the business through superior products and services. To that end, we expect to invest a certain portion of our cash on hand to develop and market new software products, to fund enhancements to existing software products, to expand our customer breadth, both geographically and vertically, and to make select accretive acquisitions that can compliment or integrate with existing products.

The primary objective of our ongoing strategic planning process is to create shareholder value by exploiting growth opportunities and strengthening our competitive position within the specific technology solutions and in the end markets we service. The plan builds on our existing strengths and targets industry leading growth and peer beating financial and operating results driven by new technology trends and market opportunities. Industry leading growth and peer beating financial and operational results will be achieved through tighter coupling and management of operating expenses of the business and sharpening the focus of our investments to concentrate on growth opportunities with the highest return by seeking the highest margin revenue opportunities in the markets in which we compete.

Our strategic plan specifically focuses on:

•    Strong customer focus, with clear and realistic service commitments.

Table of Contents

Growing sales of our proprietary offerings: products, support, maintenance and subscription services and professional services.

•    Diversifying our customer base across geographies and industries.

•    Capitalizing on our intellectual property and emerging technology trends.

Revenue - Defined

As required by the SEC, we separately present revenue earned as products revenue, support, maintenance and subscription services revenue or professional services revenue in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition to the SEC requirements, we may, at times, also refer to revenue as defined below. The terminology, definitions, and applications of terms we use to describe our revenue may be different from those used by other companies and caution should be used when comparing these financial measures to those of other companies. We use the following terms to describe revenue:

•    Revenue – We present revenue net of sales returns and allowances.

Products revenue – Revenue earned from the sales of hardware equipment and proprietary and remarketed software.

Support, maintenance and subscription services revenue – Revenue earned from the sale of proprietary and remarketed ongoing support, maintenance and subscription or hosting services.

Professional services revenue – Revenue earned from the delivery of implementation, integration and installation services for proprietary and remarketed products.

Matters Affecting Comparability

On July 1, 2013, we completed the sale of RSG to Kyrus Solutions, Inc., an affiliate of Clearlake Capital Group, L.P. For financial reporting purposes, RSG’s operating results for fiscal 2013 through the completion of the sale were classified within discontinued operations. Accordingly, the discussion and analysis presented below, reflects the continuing business of Agilysys.

Net revenue.  Total net revenue increased $2.3 million, or 9.7%, during the second quarter of fiscal 2014 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Products revenue increased $2.3 million, or 30.2%, primarily as a result of continued growth in our proprietary software licenses and associated remarketed product sales. Support, maintenance and subscription services revenue increased $0.4 million, or 3.4%, as a result of continued focus on selling subscription based services revenue, and ongoing support from our growing proprietary product sales, offset by a reduction in remarketed support revenue due to a strategic change in one of our third party providers that lowered our costs and the costs to our customers. Professional services revenue decreased $0.4 million or 8.8% due to timing of customer installations.

Gross profit and gross profit margin.  Our total gross profit increased $2.4 million, or 15.9%, for second quarter of fiscal 2014 and total gross profit margin increased 350 basis points to 65.5%. Products gross profit increased $2.1 million and gross profit margin increased 1,030 basis points to 59.2% mainly as a result of certain developed technology amortization reaching its useful life during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 and the continued focus on higher margin proprietary software sales. Support, maintenance and subscription services gross profit increased $0.6 million and gross margin increased 210 basis points to 80.1% as less labor resources were needed for maintenance of our products. Professional services gross margin decreased $0.3 million and gross profit margin decreased 570 basis points to 30.0% as a result of lower utilization in the quarter associated with customer installation timing.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses, excluding the charges for asset impairments and related charges and restructuring, severance and other charges, increased $1.1 million, or 6.6%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

Table of Contents

Product development.  Product development includes all expenses associated with research and development. Product development decreased $0.3 million, or 3.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2013. This decrease is driven by third party costs incurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 during the early stage development activities of our next generation products that did not recur in the second quarter of fiscal 2014, offset by the continued investment in internal and third party resources to enhance the existing products as well as the early stage development of our future platforms. Certain research and development costs are capitalized as software development costs for future use. We capitalized approximately $2.9 million and $0.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Sales and marketing.  Sales and marketing increased $1.4 million, or 49.0%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The increase is due to incremental incentive compensation expense incurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 to finalize fiscal 2013 compensation plans. In addition, expenses were higher due to the timing of one of our largest trade shows occurring in the second quarter of fiscal 2014.

General and administrative. General and administrative remained relatively flat reflecting the benefits of the initiatives implemented with the sale of RSG in the second quarter of fiscal 2014, which resulted in lower employee related costs and certain efficiencies in back-office processes, offset by certain non-income tax and professional fee related expenses incurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2014.

Depreciation of fixed assets.  Depreciation of fixed assets decreased slightly due to the timing of asset acquisitions.

Amortization of intangibles.  Amortization of intangibles decreased slightly in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. This decrease is due to certain internal use software reaching their useful lives during fiscal 2013.

Restructuring, severance and other charges. In the second quarter of fiscal 2014, following the sale of RSG, we recorded additional restructuring charges of approximately $0.6 million for severance and related benefits for a restructuring plan initiated in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 in order to better align corporate functions with our HSG operating unit and to reduce costs. In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we recorded additional expense of $0.4 million for severance and related benefits for the fiscal 2012 restructuring activity. We expect to incur less than $0.2 million in additional restructuring charges during the remainder of fiscal 2014 for severance and related employee benefits. Our restructuring actions are discussed further in Note 5, Restructuring Charges.

Interest income.  Interest income increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2014 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

Interest expense. Interest expense consists of costs associated with capital leases and loans on corporate-owned life insurance policies. Interest expense decreased in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2013 due to expiration and non-renewal of certain capital leases.

Other income, net.  Other income decreased $0.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. This is primarily due to losses recognized as a result of movements in foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar in the second quarter of fiscal 2013.

For the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the intra-period tax allocation rules associated with the discontinued operations. Other items affecting the rate include a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits attributable to the expiration of statute of limitations, recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.

For the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the effective tax rate was different than the statutory rate due primarily to the intra-period tax allocation rules associated with the discontinued operations. Other items affecting the rate include recognition of net operating losses as deferred tax assets, which were offset by increases in the valuation allowance, and other U.S. permanent book to tax differences.

Although the timing and outcome of tax settlements are uncertain, it is reasonably possible that during the next 12 months a reduction in unrecognized tax benefits may occur in the range of zero to $0.7 million of tax and zero to $0.3 million of interest based on the outcome of tax examinations and as a result of the expiration of various statutes of limitations. We are routinely audited; due to the ongoing nature of current examinations in multiple jurisdictions, other changes could occur in the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits during the next 12 months which cannot be estimated at this time.

Because of our losses in prior periods, we have recorded a valuation allowance offsetting substantially all of our deferred tax assets. The amount of the valuation allowance, however, could be reduced in the near term. The exact timing and the portion of the valuation allowance released are subject to change based on the level of profitability that we are able to achieve for the remainder of fiscal 2014 and our visibility into future period results. We expect that any release of the valuation allowance will be recorded as an income tax benefit or an adjustment to paid-in capital at the time of release, significantly increasing our reported net income. Our recorded tax rate may increase in subsequent periods following a significant release of the valuation allowance and our net income may be reduced in periods following the release. Any valuation allowance release will not affect the amount of cash paid for income taxes.
