ARTEMIS INTERNATIONAL SOLUTIONS CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(all tabular amounts in thousands except per share amounts)
Note 1. Organization
Artemis International Solutions Corporation, (Artemis, or the Company) is a provider of enterprise-based portfolio and project management software solutions. Artemis solutions consist of scalable client/server and Web-based applications, and are supported by consulting services and an international distribution network of 48 offices in 43 countries. Artemis has aligned its customer facing functions of sales, consulting, marketing and strategic alliances to seven key vertical markets, (i) Aerospace and Defense, (ii) Energy and Utilities, (iii) Pharmaceuticals, (iv) Government, (v) Financial Services (vi) Automotive, and (vii) High Technology. Product management and research and development efforts are focused on developing solutions to meet the needs of these markets. Proha Plc (Proha), a Finnish corporation, owns approximately 80% of the outstanding common stock of Artemis.
Note 2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Artemis, which include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 and the related footnote information are unaudited and have been prepared on a basis substantially consistent with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2002 contained in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Annual Report). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Equity investments in which Artemis owns at least 20% of the voting securities, or exercises significant influence over, (either individually or in concert with its parent, Proha) are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in which the Company owns less than 20% and is not able to exercise significant influence over the investee are accounted for under the cost method of accounting.
The Companys independent public accountants have included a going concern explanatory paragraph in their audit report on the December 31, 2002 consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. At September 30, 2003, the Companys current liabilities exceeded current assets by $8.6 million. Operating cash flow was negative $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. During the quarter ended September 30, 2003 the Company repaid a bridge loan of $3.5 million obtained from Proha to cover its short-term cash needs and entered into a $5.0 million asset-based lending facility with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd (Laurus). In addition to securing a new credit facility, management has taken some immediate steps to reduce and defer discretionary spending to more closely match expenses with actual and projected revenues. During 2002, management initiated restructuring activities to streamline the Companys operations and to focus on its core expertise in enterprise portfolio and project management. This entailed reducing the work force and selling off certain non-core assets. Further restructuring activities are expected to focus on increasing efficiencies within the Companys global infrastructure. The Company may also seek additional capital resources to fund strategic initiatives and further strengthen its global presence. Such additional equity financing may be dilutive to the Companys stockholders. The Companys capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including the rate of market acceptance of the Companys products and services, the Companys ability to service its customers, the Companys ability to maintain and expand its customer base, the level of resources required to expand the Companys marketing and sales organization, research and development activities and other factors.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto contained in the Companys Annual Report. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which, except as described elsewhere herein, consisted only of normal recurring
6
adjustments) which management considers necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at September 30, 2003 and the results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results anticipated for the entire year ending December 31, 2003.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions regarding revenue recognition, and the recoverability of intangible assets that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
On February 7, 2003, the Company effected a one for twenty-five reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. All information regarding common stock, stock options, warrants and related per share amounts has been retroactively restated within this report to reflect the reverse stock split.
Note 3. Stock-Based Incentive Compensation
The Company has several stock-based employee compensation plans. The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No.25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in the accompanying statements of operations as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123, provides alternative methods for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation as described in SFAS No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS No. 148 also requires additional disclosure related to stock-based employee compensation in annual and interim financial reports. This standard is generally effective for fiscal years ended after December 15, 2002 and did not have any impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements except for the tabular disclosure presented below. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per common share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 for all of its stock-based employee compensation plans.

Note 4. Significant Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. This interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities that possess certain characteristics. FIN 46 requires that if a business enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of the activities of the variable interest entity must be included in the consolidated financial statements with those of the business enterprise. FIN 46 applies to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. The Company has not held ownership in any variable interest entities during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The Company will apply the consolidation requirements of FIN 46 in future periods should interest in a variable interest entity be acquired.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendments of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, with certain exceptions, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 did not have a material impact on the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements.
See Note 3 for a discussion of SFAS 148.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150 Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity and is effective (except for certain mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests) for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003. The Company adopted SFAS No. 150 on June 1, 2003. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial condition.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Companys present or future consolidated financial statements.

The Company calculates earnings or loss per common share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Accordingly, basic loss per common share excludes dilution for potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Options, warrants and other common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because the effect would be antidilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per common share:

Note 8. Contingencies/Litigation
As previously reported, on April 6, 2001, a putative class action lawsuit captioned Charles Bland vs. Opus360 Corporation, et al., 01 Civ. 2938, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the Court). Ten similar putative class actions also were filed in the Court. By Order dated August 10, 2001, the Court consolidated all eleven actions and on September 24, 2001, the plaintiff served a consolidated amended class action complaint (the Amended Complaint). The Amended Complaint was brought on behalf of all persons who acquired securities of the Company between April 7, 2000 and March 20, 2001. Named as defendants in the Amended Complaint were the Company, ten current and former officers and directors of the Company, the underwriters of the Companys initial public offering (IPO) and two shareholders who sold stock in a secondary offering concurrent with the IPO. The Amended Complaint alleged that, among other things, the plaintiff and members of the proposed class were damaged when they acquired securities of the Company because false and misleading information and material omissions in the registration statement relating to the IPO and the secondary offering caused the prices of the Companys securities to be inflated artificially. It asserted violations of Section 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Damages in unspecified amounts and certain rescission rights were sought.
On June 18, 2003 the Company announced that it had signed an agreement for the settlement and release of all claims against Artemis and certain officers and directors and the underwriters in the Amended Complaint. The Company also announced at that time that the settlement was subject to approval by the Court. The Court approved the settlement on October 10, 2003; however, said approval did not become final until November 12, 2003. The Companys insurer will cover substantially all of the $0.6 million in total settlement costs. The settlement is in no event construed or deemed to be evidence of or an admission or concession on the part of the Company or any individually named defendant officers and directors with respect to any claim of any fault or liability or wrongdoing or damage whatsoever.
The Company is a party to a number of additional legal claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes the ultimate resolution of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 9. Revolving Credit Facility
In June 2003, the Company paid off its Note Payable and Line of Credit held with Wells Fargo Foothill (Foothill) and declined the option to extend the underlying Loan and Security Agreement with Foothill.
On June 30, 2003, the Company obtained a bridge loan of $3.5 million from Proha which was fully repaid by the Company during the quarter ended September 30, 2003.
On August 14, 2003, the Company entered into a Security Agreement, Secured Convertible Note, Registration Rights Agreement and Common Stock Purchase Warrant, with Laurus, such agreements were filed with the SEC under cover of Form 8-K dated August 15, 2003. Pursuant to the agreements, the Company received a $5.0 million revolving credit facility in the form of a three-year Convertible Note secured by a security interest in all of the Companys property and assets located in the United States (US) and the United Kingdom (UK), except for intellectual properties. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility will be based on the balance of eligible trade accounts receivable reported by the Companys operating entities in the US and the UK. Advances on the Convertible Note may be repaid at the Companys option, in cash or through the issuance of the Companys shares of restricted common stock. For the first six months the Convertible Note will bear interest at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Prime Rate (as defined) plus three quarters of a percent, and (ii) 5% per annum. Thereafter the interest rate will be the Prime Rate less zero to 1,250 basis points depending on the average fair market value (as defined) of the Companys common stock. In addition, the Company is required to pay a collateral management payment of 0.075% of the average aggregate outstanding balance during the month plus an unused line payment of 0.40% per annum. The Laurus credit facility automatically renews every three years unless cancelled by the Company or Laurus. An early termination fee of up to $100,000 will be payable if the facility is terminated prior to August 13, 2006. The facility also provides the Company the flexibility to access additional funds above what is available based upon eligible trade accounts receivable (Overadvance). Any such additional funds will accrue interest at a rate of 0.25% per month. At September 30, 2003, the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility was $3.5 million, of which $2.1 were Overadvances. Laurus agreed to provide such Overadvances through November 28, 2003 in exchange for $63,000 in cash. The net proceeds were used to repay a bridge loan provided by Proha and for general working capital needs.
Laurus has the right to convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount and/or accrued interest and fees due and payable into shares of the Companys restricted common stock at a conversion price of $2.73 per share (the Fixed Conversion Price). The Fixed Conversion Price may only be adjusted upwards and upon certain conditions. Conversion rights limit Laurus beneficial ownership in the Company to 2.5%. If the Companys common stock trades on a principal market at a price greater than $3.14 or 115% of the Fixed Conversion Price for at least eleven consecutive trading days, the Company has the option to require conversion of all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount and/or accrued interest and fees due at the Fixed Conversion Price. This right is subject to certain trading volume limitations and the 2.5% beneficial ownership limitation noted above. The Fixed Conversion Price is subject to anti-dilution adjustments for stock splits, combinations and dividends.
Under the agreement, the Company was obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission by September 15, 2003 to register the Companys restricted common stock, which may be issued as described herein. The Company is currently seeking a waiver from Laurus to extend such filing date, and may incur liquidated damages (maximum: 2% of the original principal amount for each thirty-day period beyond the contractual deadline) as a result of the delinquent filing of such registration statement. Because of this technical default, the Company has reported its entire $3.5 million indebtedness to Laurus as a current liability at September 30, 2003. If, and when an appropriate waiver is received from Laurus, such liability will be re-classified as long-term; the contractual due date is August 2006
13
In conjunction with this transaction, Laurus was paid a fee of $175,000 and received a Ten-Year Transferable warrant to purchase a maximum of 125,000 shares of the Companys restricted common stock. The estimated fair value of the warrant of approximately $237,000 has been treated as additional interest expense and is being amortized over the three-year life of the revolving credit facility, unless sooner terminated. The warrant permits Laurus to purchase up to 50,000, 50,000, and 25,000 shares of the Companys restricted common stock at exercise prices of $3.41, $4.10, and $4.78 per share, respectively. The warrant exercise price and the number of shares underlying the warrant are subject to anti-dilution adjustments for stock splits, combinations and dividends. Loan proceeds have been allocated to the Laurus warrant using the relative fair value method of APB No. 14.
Note 10. Subsequent Events
In October 2003, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement for the sale of its Software Productivity Research (SPR) operations. Total considerations received for the sale of SPR was $249,000 in cash and a note receivable of $40,000 due on or before December 31, 2003. In addition, the buyer assumed certain SPR liabilities. SPRs operations are not significant to the Companys consolidated financial statements.

Both our product management and our research and development efforts are focused on developing solutions to meet the needs of these markets. The Companys belief is that offering a comprehensive,
15
integrated solution that optimizes business processes from the executive to the knowledge worker provides a much stronger value proposition to customers than departmental or point solutions.
The following table sets forth certain items in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 2003 and 2002.

Software revenue represents fees earned for granting customers licenses to use our software products. During the current quarter, revenue recognized for Artemis 7 accounted for 38% of total software revenue. This is the largest percentage attributable to our enterprise portfolio management software that the Company has seen since its introduction in 2002. While the Company saw an increase in software revenues in France primarily driven by Artemis 7, software declined in most other countries as customers reduced or delayed spending on enterprise wide technology deployments. The Companys decline in software revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002 was in particular caused by its operations in Germany and Japan.

Support revenue consists of fees for providing software updates and technical support for our software products. The increase in support revenues recognized in Europe is related to the increase in the number and size of software licenses sold during the latter portion of 2002 and the first quarter of 2003.

Services revenue consists of fees for consulting and training services generated by our personnel and through subcontracted third-party arrangements. Services revenue decreased $2.0 million or 22% to $6.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $8.7 million during the same period of 2002. The reduction was primarily due to the expiration of large consulting contracts with two significant customers. The decrease in services revenue from current operations was partially offset by the recognition of deferred revenue of approximately $1.0 million pertaining to a professional services agreement with a prior OPUS360 customer.

Cost of revenue consists primarily of salaries and third-party expenses principally related to consulting services, software maintenance services and training services. To a lesser extent cost of revenue includes royalty payments to third parties. The decrease in cost of revenue was primarily due to the decrease in services revenue.
Gross Profit
Total gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was $7.8 million, a slight increase from the same period of 2002 due to a larger decrease in costs than revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2002. Gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2003 increased approximately 8 percentage points, to 57% from 49% during the same period of 2002. The primary reasons for the increase in profit margin are increased efficiencies in the support organization and a reduction in third-party royalties through the shift in product mix towards Artemis 7. Additionally, there were no third-quarter 2003 costs associated with the revenue that was recognized in the current quarter under an OPUS360 professional services contract. The overall gross profit margin without the effect of the one-time OPUS360 services revenue would have been 54%.
18
Operating Expenses
Selling and Marketing expenses
Selling and Marketing expenses consist primarily of the personnel related costs of our direct sales force and marketing staff and the cost of marketing programs, including advertising, trade shows, promotional materials and customer conferences. Selling and Marketing expenses increased $1.1 million or 37% to $4.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2003, from $3.0 million during the same period of 2002. During 2002, management reduced discretionary selling and marketing expenses in response to forecasts, which predicted that a challenging economy would cause our customers to delay spending on enterprise wide technology deployments. In the latter portion of 2002 management predicted a gradual recovery in the market for software. In response to this and to support the introduction of our Portfolio solution products management increased marketing efforts. In addition, during 2003 the Company realigned its marketing organization. Part of this change included the creation of a new Solutions Marketing Team, which focuses on key vertical markets to help provide more relevant and complete business solutions to customers.
Research and development
Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs associated with the development of our products. These expenses have remained flat at approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and the same period in 2002. Throughout 2002, management worked to decrease costs by reducing and reallocating personnel, as management reacted to general economic conditions during the latter part of 2001 and the first half of 2002.
We believe that continued investment in research and development is critical to attaining our strategic objectives and, as a result, we expect that spending on research and development will remain at current levels during the fourth quarter of 2003. Primary focus for 2003 is to continue the process of evolving our development methodology and to invest in product functionality in the following three ways: (1) adding significant new capability; (2) integrating key new architectural features and technology; and (3) bringing our suite of interrelated products together into a unified solution.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel salaries and wages and related costs for general corporate functions, including executive, legal, finance, accounting, human resources and information systems. General and administrative expenses decreased $1.3 million or 36% to $2.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2003, from $3.6 million during same period of 2002. The decrease was primarily due to the following (i) a decrease in insurance fees due to a reduction in coverage, (ii) a reduction in office space occupied, including the closure of our Exton Pennsylvania facility, (iii) the elimination of payments on former OPUS360 lease agreements through expiration or settlement, (iv) the elimination of commitments under long-term phone service contracts due to settlement, (v) a change in the classification of key executive salaries and related expense in accordance with a change in job emphasis from administration to selling and marketing and (vi) the elimination of salaries paid to duplicative OPUS360 personnel who left Artemis in 2002.
These factors were partially offset by one-time charges of $0.2 million for severance payments to employees who were terminated during the September 2003 quarter as part of an overall cost reduction strategy.
Amortization expense represents the financial statement effect of amortizing intangible assets acquired in conjunction with Prohas purchase of Legacy Artemis, a predecessor to the Company, in August 2000. These assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of 42 months commencing January 1, 2002.
19
Non-operating (income) expenses, net
Non-operating income and expenses consist of (i) net interest income or expense, (ii) equity in the net losses of unconsolidated affiliates, (iii) foreign exchange gains or losses, (iv) income tax expense , and (v) other income, net. During the three months ended September 30, 2003, the only significant component of net nonoperating income/expense was $0.4 million of foreign exchange gain. Foreign exchange gains and losses result from changes in the exchange rates of the currencies used in the countries in which Artemis operates.

During the second quarter of 2002 the United States subsidiary recorded sales of approximately $0.6 million from one customer. This represented a significant portion of software revenues in the United States during the nine months ended September 30, 2002. There were no single license agreements of similar amount during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The increase in software revenue in the EMEA region is primarily due to revenues earned by the Companys UK subsidiary under the RDA contract. Overall, revenues from Artemis 7 accounted for 27% of total Software revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2003.

Approximately 57% of the decrease in support revenues in the United States corresponded to the 7000/9000 products which are the older offerings in the Companys product line and Knowledge Plan which is the old Software Productivity Research product line. This decrease was more than offset by an increase in support revenues in each country in the EMEA region where certain local economies have begun to recover and the Companys newer products have gained acceptance. The Company has reported increased revenue in Europe primarily due to the recovery in our software license sales in the latter portion of 2002 and the first quarter of 2003. The increase in support revenue during 2003 is directly related to the increase in the number and size of software licenses sold during the latter portion of 2002.

The reduction in the Americas services revenue was primarily due to the expiration of contracts with two significant customers. The increase in service revenue in the EMEA region was primarily due to services provided to the RDA by our UK subsidiary. The decrease in revenue at our Asian subsidiaries was primarily due to the SARS epidemic, which limited our consultants ability to operate at client locations.

The decrease in cost of revenue in the Americas region resulted from reduction in activities due to the expiration of contracts with two significant customers. Cost of revenues in the EMEA region increased as the Companys United Kingdom subsidiary provided increased services under the RDA contract. The decrease in costs of revenue incurred by our Asian subsidiaries resulted from a reduction in consulting services provided due to the Asian SARS epidemic
Gross Profit
Total gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $23.6 million, a decrease of $1.3 million or 5%, from $25.0 million for the same period of 2002 due to the expiration of contracts with two significant customers. Gross profit margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased approximately 4 percentage points, to 55% from 51% during the same period of 2002 reflecting increased efficiencies in the support organization and a reduction in third-party royalties through the shift in product mix towards Artemis 7. Costs of services revenue, which represented 78% and 75% of total costs of revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively, did not decrease proportionally to services revenue due to the fixed nature of certain costs such as consultants salaries. As a result, the gross profit percentage on services revenue declined from 35% during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 to 25% during the comparable 2003 period. The gross profit percentage for the September 2003 quarter would have been 21% without the effect of the one-time OPUS360 professional services revenue recognized in the current quarter.

Operating Expenses
Selling and Marketing expenses
Selling and Marketing expenses increased $3.5 million or 40% to $12.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, from $8.7 million during the same period of 2002. The increase was primarily due to increased marketing efforts in expectation of a gradual recovery of software licensing, particularly in Europe. In addition, during 2003 the Company realigned its marketing organization. Part of this change included the creation of a new Solutions Marketing Team, which focuses on key vertical markets to help provide more relevant and complete business solutions to customers.
Research and development
These expenses have remained virtually flat at approximately $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and $6.0 million for the same period in 2002. Throughout 2002, management worked to decrease costs by reducing and reallocating personnel, as management reacted to general economic conditions during the latter part of 2001 and the first half of 2002. On the other hand, management believes that continued investment in research and development is critical to attaining our strategic objectives and, as a result, we expect spending on research and development to remain at current levels.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses decreased $2.6 million or 24% to $8.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, from $10.9 million during same period of 2002. The decrease was primarily due to the following (i) a reduction in insurance coverage, (ii) a decrease in audit fees resulting from the change of the Companys accountants, (iii) a reduction in office space occupied, including the closure of our Exton Pennsylvania facility, (iv) the elimination of payments on former OPUS360 lease agreements through expiration or settlement, (v) the elimination of commitments under long-term phone service contracts due to settlement, (vi) a change in the classification of key executive salaries and related expense in accordance with a change in job emphasis from administration to selling and marketing and (vii) the elimination of salaries paid to duplicative OPUS360 personnel.
These factors were partially offset by a one-time charge of $0.6 million for severance payments to Ari Horowitz, the Companys former Executive Vice President of Corporate Development in accordance with the provisions of his employment contract with the Company.
Non-operating (income) expenses, net
Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 included $0.1 million of ABC sales in France. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company reported $0.2 million of foreign exchange gain. Foreign exchange gains and losses result from changes in the exchange rates of the currencies used in the countries in which Artemis operates.
The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the same period of the prior year was an increase in revenues and reduction of operating loss of approximately $4.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
Change in trade accounts receivable
Our trade accounts receivable (net of allowance for doubtful accounts) decreased approximately $4.2 million from $17.3 million at December 31, 2002 to $13.1 million at September 30, 2003 because of (i) timing and amount of fees billed during the quarter as compared to the fourth quarter of 2002, (ii) managements general effort to accelerate the rate of collections and (iii) the collection of maintenance contract retainers which were billed in advance during December 2002 for services to be provided during 2003.
22
Our operating activities used approximately $3.4 million in cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Our net loss of $6.3 million was the major component reducing operating cash flow. Operating cash flow was further reduced by (i) a decrease of $3.9 million in deferred revenues and (ii) a net decrease in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities of $2.7 million. The effects of these items on cash were offset by factors such as (i) non-cash expenses of $4.1 million in depreciation and amortization related to our intangible assets and fixed assets, (ii) a net collection of $4.2 million in trade accounts receivable and (iii) a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $1.1 million.
Our investing activities used cash of $0.8 million, representing capital expenditures, during the nine months ended September 30, 2003.
Our financing activities provided $1.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The Company uses lines of credit to fund temporary operating cash requirements and certain financial obligations. Funding received through our lines of credit, net of repayments were $1.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2003. Principal payments, net of proceeds from debt were approximately $0.7 million.
In June 2003, the Company paid off its Note Payable and Line of Credit (the Foothill Facility) held with Wells Fargo Foothill (Foothill) and declined the option to extend the underlying Loan and Security Agreement with Foothill in order to enter into a new credit facility with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd (Laurus) at more favorable terms.

The Companys independent public accountants have included a going concern explanatory paragraph in their audit report on the December 31, 2002 consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. At September 30, 2003, the Companys current liabilities exceeded current assets by $8.6 million. Operating cash flow was negative $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. During the quarter ended September 30, 2003 the Company repaid a bridge loan of $3.5 million obtained from Proha to cover its short-term cash needs and entered into a $5.0 million asset-based lending facility with Laurus. In addition to securing a new credit facility, management has also taken some immediate steps to reduce and defer discretionary spending to more closely match expenses with actual and projected revenues. During 2002, management initiated restructuring activities to streamline the Companys operations and to focus on its core expertise in enterprise portfolio and project management. This entailed
23
reducing the work force and selling off certain non-core assets. Further restructuring activities are expected to focus on increasing efficiencies within the Companys global infrastructure. The Company may also seek additional capital resources to fund strategic initiatives and further strengthen its global presence. Such additional equity financing may be dilutive to the Companys stockholders. The Companys capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including the rate of market acceptance of the Companys products and services, the Companys ability to service its customers, the Companys ability to maintain and expand its customer base, the level of resources required to expand the Companys marketing and sales organization, research and development activities and other factors.
The Companys Finnish subsidiary shares office space with Proha. Proha charged the Companys Finnish subsidiary approximately $82,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 for a share of office related costs, such as rent and utilities, telecommunications costs and certain other business costs. In addition, the Companys Finnish subsidiary regularly enters into other transactions with entities that are owned in whole or in part by Proha.
At September 30, 2003, the Company maintained equity holdings in certain joint ventures, which are accounted for under the equity method, with the exception of Metier Scandinavia AS (Norway), Metier Plancom BV(Netherlands) and DA Management Solutions (Finland) which are accounted for under the cost method. The Company records its equity interest in net losses first to the investment balance, then against loans or advances.
Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosure About Market Risk
At September 30, 2003, the majority of our cash balances were held primarily in the form of short- term highly liquid investment grade money market funds of major financial institutions. Due to the short-term nature of our investments and the fact that they are marked to market daily, we believe that we are not subject to any material interest or market rate risks.
We conduct a significant portion of our business in currencies other than the United States dollar. Our operating results are therefore subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in the value of major foreign currencies relative to the value of the United States dollar could potentially adversely affect revenues and operating results. We do not hedge foreign currency risk. As a result, we will continue to experience foreign currency exchange gains and losses.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the 34 Act) as of a date (the Evaluation Date) within 90 days prior to the filing date of this report. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that, as of September 30, 2003, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to the material information relating to us (or our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our periodic filings with the SEC. Based on their most recent evaluation as of the Evaluation Date, the CEO and the CFO have also concluded that there are no significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Companys ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information, and such officers have identified no material weaknesses in internal controls.
There were no significant changes made in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 that are reasonably likely to significantly affect these controls. Thus, no corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses were necessary.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
As previously reported, on April 6, 2001, a putative class action lawsuit captioned Charles Bland vs. Opus360 Corporation, et al., 01 Civ. 2938, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the Court). Ten similar putative class actions also were filed in the Court. By Order dated August 10, 2001, the Court consolidated all eleven actions and on September 24, 2001, the plaintiff served a consolidated amended class action complaint (the Amended Complaint). The Amended Complaint was brought on behalf of all persons who acquired securities of the Company between April 7, 2000 and March 20, 2001. Named as defendants in the Amended Complaint were the Company, ten current and former officers and directors of the Company, the underwriters of the Companys initial public offering (IPO) and two shareholders who sold stock in a secondary offering concurrent with the IPO. The Amended Complaint alleged that, among other things, the plaintiff and members of the proposed class were damaged when they acquired securities of the Company because false and misleading information and material omissions in the registration statement relating to the IPO and the secondary offering caused the prices of the Companys securities to be inflated artificially. It asserted violations of Section 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. Damages in unspecified amounts and certain rescission rights were sought.
On June 18, 2003 the Company announced that it had signed an agreement for the settlement and release of all claims against Artemis and certain officers and directors and the underwriters in the consolidated, Amended Complaint.
The settlement was approved by the Court on October 10, 2003. However, the Courts order did not become final until November 12, 2003. The Companys insurer will cover substantially all of the $550,000 in total settlement costs. The settlement is in no event construed or deemed to be evidence of or an admission or concession on the part of the Company or any individually named defendant officers and directors with respect to any claim of any fault or liability or wrongdoing or damage whatsoever.
Item 2. Change in Securities and Use of Proceeds
None.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
The Company was obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission by September 15, 2003 to register certain restricted common stock of the Company as required under the credit facility with Laurus. The Company is currently seeking a waiver from Laurus and expects to file such registration statement during the fourth quarter of 2003.
25
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
None.
The Audit Committee has engaged independent counsel to review the independence of the Audit Committee members in light of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, certain related party transactions between the Company and Proha Plc, (which owns approximately 80% of the Company), and other potential conflicts of interest. The Audit Committee has not yet concluded what actions, if any, will result from this examination.
