TIDMKFX
Kofax Limited (NASDAQ and LSE: KFX), a leading provider of smart
process applications for the business critical First MileT of
customer interactions, today published and attaches audited GAAP
financial statements for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2013 and
June 30, 2014, and on its website publishes unaudited GAAP
financial statements and Non-GAAP financial measures with
supplemental reconciliations for the quarter and fiscal year ended
June 30, 2014.
Jamie Arnold, Chief Financial Officer, said: "The information
attached to today's announcement and available on our website
completes the historical information related to our voluntary
change to U.S. GAAP financial reporting announced on August 21,
2014. All quarterly and annual fiscal year 2015 and subsequent
fiscal year financial statements will be prepared and published on
a U.S. GAAP basis."
Arnold continued: "After converting the basis of preparation of
the Company's financial statements to GAAP, we have concluded that
the differences in reporting income statement financial measures on
GAAP rather than IFRS and Non-GAAP rather than Non-IFRS are not
material to the periods presented. The differences in balance sheet
financial measures are largely reclassifications and related to the
amortization of goodwill arising from acquisitions made in prior
periods.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Measures
Management uses financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in
analyzing and assessing the overall performance of the business and
for making operational decisions. We have provided and believe that
the non-GAAP financial measures and supplemental reconciliation to
GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and other users of
our financial statements because the non-GAAP financial measures
may be used as additional tools to compare business performance
across peer companies, periods and financial markets. While we use
non-GAAP measures as a tool to enhance our understanding of certain
aspects of our financial performance, we do not believe that these
non-GAAP measures are a substitute for, or are superior to, the
information provided by GAAP results. As such, the presentation of
non-GAAP measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The primary limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP
measures as compared to GAAP results are that non-GAAP measures may
not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other
companies in our industry and that non-GAAP measures may exclude
financial information that some investors may consider important in
evaluating our performance. We compensate for these limitations by
providing disclosure of the differences between non-GAAP measures
and GAAP results, including providing a reconciliation of each
non-GAAP measure to GAAP results, to enable investors to perform
their own analysis of our operating results.
Adjusted Revenue - We defined adjusted revenue as revenue, as
reported under GAAP, increased to include revenue that is
associated with our historic acquisitions that has been excluded
from reported results for a limited period due to the effects of
purchase accounting. In accordance with GAAP purchase accounting,
an acquired company's deferred revenue at the date of acquisition
is subject to a fair value adjustment which generally reduces the
deferred amount and revenues recognized subsequent to an
acquisition. We include non-GAAP revenue to allow for more complete
comparisons to the financial results of our historical operations,
forward-looking guidance and the financial results of peer
companies. We believe these adjustments are useful to management
and investors as a measure of the ongoing performance of the
business. Additionally, although acquisition-related revenue
adjustments are non-recurring, we may incur similar adjustments in
connection with future acquisitions.
Adjusted Income from Operations - We define non-GAAP income from
operations as income/(loss) from operations, as reported under
GAAP, excluding the effect of Acquisition fair value adjustment to
revenue, Share-based compensation expense, Depreciation expense,
Amortization of acquired intangible assets, Acquisition-related
costs, Other operating expense, net. Share-based compensation
expense; depreciation expense and amortization of acquired
intangible assets in our non-GAAP income from operations
reconciliation represent non-cash charges which are not considered
by management in evaluating our operating performance.
Acquisition-related costs consist of: (i) costs directly
attributable to our acquisition strategy and the evaluation,
consummation and integration of our acquisitions (composed
substantially of professional services fees including legal,
accounting and other consultants and to a lesser degree to our
personnel whose responsibilities are devoted to acquisition
activities), and (ii) transition compensation costs (composed
substantially of contingent payments for shares that are treated as
compensation expense and retention payments that are anticipated to
become payable to employees, as well as severance payments to
employees whose positions were made redundant). These
acquisition-related costs are not considered to be related to the
continuing operations of the acquired businesses and are generally
not relevant to assessing or estimating the long-term performance
of the acquired assets. Other operating expense, net represents
items that are not necessarily related to our recurring operations
and which therefore are not, under GAAP, included in other expense
lines. Accordingly, we exclude those amounts when assessing
non-GAAP income from operations. At times when we are communicating
with our shareholders, analysts and other parties we refer to
non-GAAP income from operations as adjusted EBITDA.
We assess non-GAAP income from operations as a percentage of
total non-GAAP revenue and by doing so; we are able to evaluate our
relative performance of our revenue growth compared to the expense
growth for those items included in non-GAAP income from operations.
This measure allows management and our Board of Directors to
compare our performance against that of other companies in our
industry that may be of different sizes.

Report of Independent Auditors
Management and the Audit Committee of Kofax Limited,
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial
statements of Kofax Limited and subsidiaries, which comprise the
consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the
related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income,
changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years
thenended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial
statements.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair
presentation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design,
implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the
preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are
free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence
about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The
procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk
assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the
entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial
statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate
in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated
financial position of Kofax Limited and subsidiaries at June 30,
2014 and 2013, and the consolidated results of their operations and
their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1ORGANIZATION AND PRESENTATION
We began operations in Switzerland in 1985 as a distributor of
digital imaging hardware and maintenance services under the name
Dicom AG. We listed the ordinary (i.e., common) shares of Kofax
plc, Kofax Limited's predecessor, on AIM (the London Stock
Exchange's market for smaller companies) in 1996 and subsequently
transferred to the main market of the London Stock Exchange in
1997. Since then we have maintained a Premium Listing, which
requires meeting the UK's highest standards of regulation and
corporate governance. We subsequently expanded into the
distribution of related software products and services and
eventually became an independent software vendor through the
acquisition of a number of software businesses beginning in 1999.
On December 5, 2013 we completed our initial public offering in the
United States on the NASDAQ Global Select Market.
Pursuant to a scheme of arrangement approved by the shareholders
of Kofax (U.K.) and sanctioned by the High Court of Justice of
England and Wales, we migrated the jurisdiction of organization of
our parent company from the United Kingdom to Bermuda by forming
Kofax Limited, a Bermuda company.
Kofax Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively "we", "Kofax"
or "the Company") is a leading global provider of smart process
applications software and related maintenance and professional
services. The Company's software enables organizations to design,
deploy, and operate comprehensive systems that create an essential
link between their systems of engagement, which generate real time,
information-intensive communications from constituents, and their
systems of record, which are typically large scale enterprise
applications and repositories used to manage their internal
operations.
The Company utilizes a hybrid go-to-market model that delivers
software and services through both its direct sales and service
employees and an indirect channel of authorized resellers, original
equipment manufacturers and distributors.
The Company has built a portfolio of intellectual property,
technologies, applications and solutions through both internal
development and acquisitions.
The Company's presentational currency is U.S. dollars as that is
the currency of the primary economic environment in which the
Company operates.
Except where otherwise stated, all references to fiscal 2014 and
fiscal 2013 in these notes to the consolidated financial statements
are defined as the year ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013,
respectively.
NOTE 2SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles ("U.S. GAAP").
Basis of Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Kofax Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are
consolidated from the date of their acquisition. Intercompany
balances and transactions between consolidated entities are
eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes. On an ongoing basis, the Company
evaluates its estimates, assumptions and judgments. Estimates are
used for, but not limited to, determining the selling price of
products and services in multiple element arrangements and
determining the period over which revenue should be recognized for
these elements; income taxes; collectability of receivables;
acquisition purchase price allocation, valuation of goodwill and
acquired intangible assets; depreciable lives of property and
equipment; share-based compensation; pension adjustments and
contingent liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on
historical experience, market participant fair value considerations
and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable and
supportable and result in estimates that are reasonable for the use
in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Actual
amounts could differ significantly from these estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue from the following sources: (1)
software license agreements, (2) maintenance services (also known
as post-contract customer support or PCS) and (3) professional
services. The Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred,
(iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability is
probable. Our revenue recognition policies for our revenue streams
are discussed below. The sale and/or license of software products
and technology is deemed to have occurred when a customer either
has taken possession of or has access to take immediate possession
of the software or technology. Revenue from royalties on sales of
our software products by original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"),
where no services or other performance obligations are included, is
recognized in the quarter earned so long as we have been notified
by the OEM that such royalties are due, and provided that all other
revenue recognition criteria are met.
Subscription arrangements are recognized ratably over the period
of subscription. The Company's subscription software licenses are
generally offered for one-year base subscription periods. The base
subscription entitles the end user to the technology itself and
maintenance consisting of a specified level of customer support,
bug fixes, functionality enhancement to the technology, and
upgrades to new versions of the license, each on a
when-and-if-available basis, during the term of subscription.
Transactions with customers are documented by written
agreements, with direct sales generally taking the form of a sales
contract, statement of work and a purchase order. Sales through
indirect channels are generally made via a master agreement, under
which the key legal terms and conditions are included, and each
order is then evidenced by a purchase order or other evidence of
the order provided from the channel partner.
We generate revenue from the sale of license to use our
products, including royalty arrangements and from maintenance and
professional services. A software arrangement generally consists
of: (i) a perpetual software license, (ii) a maintenance service
arrangement that includes technical support via the phone and web
and the right to receive unspecified upgrades/enhancements on a
when-and-if-available basis, generally for an initial period of one
year, and (iii) in some cases, separate professional services
engagements for software implementation, education, training and
other services.
For our software and software-related multiple element
arrangements where customers purchase both software-related
products and software-related services, we use vendor-specific
objective evidence ("VSOE") of fair value to separate the elements
and account for them separately. VSOE exists when a company can
support the fair value of its software-related products and
software-related services based on evidence of the prices charged
when the same elements are sold separately. VSOE of fair value is
required, generally, in order to separate the accounting for
various elements in a software and related services arrangement. We
have established VSOE of fair value for maintenance, professional
services, and training.
Software arrangements generally include PCS, which includes
telephone support and the right to receive unspecified
upgrades/enhancements on a when-and-if-available basis, typically
for one year. Revenue from PCS is generally recognized rateably on
a straight-line basis over the term that the maintenance service is
provided.
Professional services contracted under time and material
arrangements are recognized as the services are performed. With
respect to professional services contracted on a fixed price basis,
the Company has significant experience in providing these services
and are able to estimate the stage of completion. Accordingly, the
Company recognizes the revenue and profit on fixed price
professional service engagements on a percentage-of-completion
basis. When we provide professional services considered essential
to the functionality of the software, we recognize revenue from the
professional services as well as any related software licenses on a
percentage-of-completion basis whereby the arrangement
consideration is recognized as the services are performed, as
measured by an observable input. In these circumstances, we
separate license revenue from professional service revenue for
income statement presentation by allocating VSOE of fair value of
the professional services as professional services and the residual
portion as product and licensing revenue. We generally determine
the percentage-of-completion by comparing the labor hours incurred
to-date to the estimated total labor hours required to complete the
project. We consider labor hours to be the most reliable, available
measure of progress on these projects. Adjustments to estimates to
complete are made in the periods in which facts resulting in a
change become known. When the estimate indicates that a loss will
be incurred, such loss is recorded in the period identified.
Significant judgments and estimates are involved in determining the
percent complete of each contract. Different assumptions could
yield materially different results.
When products are sold through distributors or resellers, title
and risk of loss generally passes upon delivery, at which time the
transaction is invoiced and payment is due. Delivery to
distributors and resellers without right of return are recognized
as revenue upon delivery, provided all other revenue recognition
criteria are met.
Business Combinations
The financial results of the businesses that the Company has
acquired are included in the Company's consolidated financial
results based on the respective dates of the acquisitions. The
Company allocates the purchase consideration to the identifiable
assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination
based on their acquisition-date fair values. The excess of the
purchase consideration over the amounts assigned to the
identifiable assets and liabilities is recognized as goodwill.
Factors giving rise to goodwill generally include synergies that
are anticipated as a result of the business combination, including
enhanced product and service offerings. The fair values of
identifiable intangible assets acquired in business combinations
are generally determined using an income approach, requiring
financial forecasts and estimates as well as market participant
assumptions. While we use our best estimates and assumptions as
part of the purchase price allocation process to accurately value
assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the business combination
date, our estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain and
subject to refinement. As a result, during the purchase price
allocation period, which is generally no more than one year from
the business combination date, we record adjustments to the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to
goodwill. For changes in the valuation of intangible assets between
preliminary and final purchase price allocation, the related
amortization is adjusted effective from the acquisition date.
Subsequent to the purchase price allocation period, any adjustment
to assets acquired or liabilities assumed is included in operating
results in the period in which the adjustment is determined.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets Arising From Business
Combinations
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price in a
business combination over the fair value of net tangible and
intangible assets acquired. Goodwill and intangible assets with
indefinite lives are not amortized, but rather the carrying amounts
of these assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually or
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. Intangible
assets, such as contractual relationships and technology, are
amortized over their expected useful lives on a straight-line
basis. Amortization of these intangibles is included in either cost
of revenue or operating expenses based on the function of the
intangible asset.
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual
basis, or more frequently if the Company believes indicators of
impairment exist. The Company has identified a single reporting
unit and performs an annual evaluation as of April 1 each year.
Upon completion of the April 2014 annual impairment assessment, the
Company determined that no impairment was indicated. As of June 30,
2014, the Company is not aware of any significant indicators of
impairment that exist for our goodwill that would require
additional analysis.
The Company performs sensitivity analyses to demonstrate that a
reasonable change in the key assumptions would not reduce the
difference between the carrying amount and recoverable amount of
goodwill to zero. The Company also compares the Company's market
capitalization to the book value of net assets and this indicated a
significant surplus at June 30, 2014.
Other Long-lived Assets
Purchased computer software licenses and similar rights
purchased from third parties are capitalized on the basis of the
costs incurred. Where internal costs are directly associated with
software projects in combination with purchased licenses, such
costs are deemed to be eligible for capitalization. These costs are
amortized over their estimated useful lives (3-7 years) on a
straight-line basis and are recorded to the respective operating
expense or cost of sales line. The carrying amounts are reviewed
for impairment if events or circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of the intangible asset may not be recoverable.
Items of property and equipment are initially recognized at
cost. The costs include the purchase price and directly
attributable costs to bring the asset into a usable condition.
Depreciation on all items of property and equipment is recorded on
a straight-line basis over their expected useful lives or the lease
term, if shorter.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs related to software that is or
will be sold or licensed externally to third parties, or for which
a substantive plan exists to sell or license such software in the
future, incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological
feasibility, but prior to the general release of the product, are
capitalized and amortized to cost of license revenue over the
estimated useful life of the related products. We have determined
that technological feasibility is reached shortly before the
general release of our software products. Costs incurred after
technological feasibility is established have not been material. As
a result, we expense research and development costs as
incurred.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are classified as
sales and marketing expenses. The Company incurred advertising
costs of $0.8 million and $1.1 million for fiscal 2014 and 2013,
respectively.
Income taxes
Income tax expense reflects management's best estimate of
estimated current and future taxes to be paid. Significant
judgments and estimates are required in determining total income
tax expense.
Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between
the carrying value of assets and liabilities and their tax basis,
which will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined using enacted
tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are
expected to reverse.
In evaluating the Company's ability to recover deferred tax
assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, the Company
considers all available positive and negative evidence, including
scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future
taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial
operations. In projecting future taxable income, the Company begins
with historical results and incorporates assumptions including the
amount of future state, federal and non-US pre-tax operating
income, the impact of permanent tax adjustments, the reversal of
temporary differences, and the implementations of feasible and
prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require
significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income
and are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company is
using to manage the underlying businesses. In evaluating the
objective evidence that historical results provide, the Company
considers the most recent three years of cumulative operating
income (loss). The Company maintains a valuation allowance to
reduce its deferred tax assets to reflect the amount, based upon
the Company's estimates that would more likely than not be
realized.
As of June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, we have $13.5 million and
13.5 million of valuation allowances remaining for certain deferred
tax assets, respectively. If results of future operations differ
from those in the estimates, the Company may need to increase or
decrease the valuation allowance, which could significantly affect
its reported results in future periods.
We establish unrecognized tax benefits for tax uncertainties.In
accordance with the provisions of ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, we
establish reserves for tax uncertainties that reflect the use of
the comprehensive model for the recognition and measurement of
uncertain tax positions. Under the comprehensive model, reserves
are established when it is more likely than not that the position
would be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any
related appeals or litigation processes, on the basis of the
position's technical merits. The threshold for recognition is met,
a tax position is recorded at the largest amount that is more than
fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
Interest and penalties are recognized as a component of income tax
expense in the Consolidated Income Statements.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based
awards made to employees. The fair value of share-based awards is
estimated at the grant date and the portion that is ultimately
expected to vest is recognized as compensation cost over the
requisite service period. The fair value of stock option awards
that vest based on a service condition is estimated using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
Share-based compensation expense is recognized only for those
awards that are ultimately expected to vest, and we have applied an
estimated forfeiture rate to unvested awards for the purpose of
calculating compensation cost to be recognized. These estimates
will be revised in future periods if actual forfeitures differ from
the estimates. Changes in forfeiture estimates impact compensation
cost recognized in the period in which the change in estimate
occurs. Compensation expense for share-based awards based on a
service condition is recognized using the accelerated method.
The Company also grants Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) awards
to certain employees (including executive officers). The Company
records share-based compensation expense based on the market share
price at grant date and estimated achievement percentage of related
performance criteria.
Under the Kofax Limited 2012 Long Term Incentive Plan,
performance based restricted stock units are awarded to senior
executives at the discretion of the Remuneration Committee. The
shares vest after three years, contingent on the successful
achievement of the following performance criteria:
(a) Continued employment of three years after the effective date of the award,
(b) 50% on the attainment of revenue goals, and
(c) 50% on the achievement of earnings target goals, as defined.
The fair value of the LTIP award is based on the market share
price at grant date, with the number of shares included in the
measurement of the charge reassessed each reporting period to
reflect management's best estimate of non-market performance
criteria achievement. The fair value also assumes no dividends.
The fair value of the award is recognized as compensation cost
over the requisite service period, with shares vesting after three
years. At the end of each reporting period, management reassesses
the estimated achievement percentages, with any downward revisions
reversed to share-based compensation expense in the period in which
this determination is made. However, if at a future date conditions
have changed, resulting in an increase to the estimated percentage
achievement, the previously reversed share-based payment expense as
well as all subsequent projected share-based compensation expense
through the date of evaluation, is recognized in the period in
which this new determination is made.
Restructuring Charges
A restructuring charge is recognized when the Company has
approved a detailed and formal restructuring plan and the
restructuring has either commenced or been announced publicly.
Severance payments and related employment costs are accrued in full
when employees are identified in the restructuring plan. Costs
relating to on-going activities, such as relocation, training and
information systems are recognized only when incurred.
Restructuring accruals related to onerous leases are recorded when
they are part of an announced restructuring and the leased space
becomes no longer usable either in part or in whole and the
expected remaining lease payments are expensed at the time this
determination is made, net of any income from assumed sub-lease.
Additionally, the Company may recognize separate accruals for
onerous lease contracts in the event a contract becomes no longer
usable.
Foreign Currency
When determining the functional currency of a foreign entity,
the Company takes into consideration the economic environment, the
currency influencing operational and financial transactions as well
as the activity of the entity.
Transactions in foreign currencies other than the entities'
functional currency are converted using the rate of exchange at the
date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in
non-functional currencies are translated using the rate of exchange
at the period end. The gains or losses arising from the revaluation
of foreign currency transactions to functional currency are
included in Other income (expense), net. Differences on foreign
currency borrowings from foreign currency subsidiaries that form
part of the net investment are taken directly to equity until the
date of disposal of the net investment, at which time they are
recognized in the Other income (expense), net. Foreign currency
differences arising on trading intercompany loans are charged to
Other income (expense), net.
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated
from their respective functional currencies into U.S. dollars, the
Company's presentation currency, at the rate of exchange at the end
of the period. Income and expenses are translated at monthly
average exchange rates for the year as this represents a reasonable
approximation of actual exchange rates at the date of transactions.
While all equity components (i.e., common stock, additional paid in
capital, employee stock ownership/employee benefit shares, treasury
shares and retained earnings) are translated at historical rates,
the remainder, resulting from the retranslation of the net assets
at the applicable spot rate, are reflected in other comprehensive
income ("OCI") within shareholders' equity. On disposal of a
foreign operation, the deferred cumulative amount of currency
translation adjustments recognized in equity relating to that
particular foreign operation is recognized in Other income
(expense), net.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company defines fair value as the price that would be
received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in
an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for
assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair
value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous
market in which the Company would transact and the market-based
risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use
in pricing the asset or liability, such as risks inherent in
valuation techniques, transfer restrictions and credit risk. Fair
value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which
prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels
and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest
level of input that is available and significant to the fair value
measurement:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for
identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by
observable market data for substantially the full term of the
assets or liabilities.
Level 3 - Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically
reflect management's estimate of assumptions that market
participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of all
other financial instruments, all of which have counterparties with
high credit ratings, were valued based on quoted market prices or
model driven valuations using significant inputs derived from or
corroborated by observable market data.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing income
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of
shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to
common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the
number of additional shares of common stock that would have been
outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued.
Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options,
and unvested shares granted under the Long Term Incentive Plans.
The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected
in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock
method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair
market value of the Company's common stock can result in a greater
dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities. No options or
LTIPs have been excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive Income consists of net income, current period
foreign currency translation adjustments, and pension adjustments,
net of any applicable income tax amounts. For the purposes of
comprehensive loss disclosures, the Company does not record tax
provisions or benefits for the net changes in the foreign currency
translation adjustment, as the Company intends to reinvest
undistributed earnings in its foreign subsidiaries permanently.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We classify all highly liquid instruments with an original
maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase as cash
equivalents.
Accounts Receivable Allowances
The Company records its allowance for doubtful accounts based
upon its assessment of various factors. The Company considers
historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances,
credit quality of the Company's customers, current economic
conditions, and other factors that may affect customers' ability to
pay. Activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts was as
follows:

Contingent Consideration and Acquisition-related costs
Contingent consideration to be transferred by the Company will
be recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. A subsequent
change to the fair value of the contingent consideration is
recorded to Acquisition-related costs in the Consolidated
Statements of Income. Direct transaction costs are expensed through
the Consolidated Statements of Income in Acquisition-related costs.
This account consists of (i) costs directly attributable to
acquisition strategy and the evaluation, consummation and
integration of acquisitions, which are composed substantially of
professional services fees including legal, accounting and other
consultants and, (ii) compensation costs, which are composed
substantially of contingent payments for shares that are treated as
compensation expense and retention payments that are anticipated to
become payable to employees both of which require continuing
employment of the recipients, as well as severance payments to
employees whose positions were made redundant.
Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company utilizes derivative instruments to hedge specific
financial risks such as interest rate and foreign exchange risk.
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date a
contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair
value. The fair values of derivatives are measured using observable
market prices or, where market prices are not available, by using
discounted expected future cash flows at prevailing interest and
exchange rates. The gain or loss on re-measurement is taken to the
Consolidated Income Statements except where the derivative is part
of a designated cash flow hedge or a designated hedge of a net
investment in a foreign operation. The Company does not apply hedge
accounting for these forward contracts or any other hedging
activity.
Pensions
We sponsor various defined benefit pension plans and other
postretirement benefit plans internationally in accordance with
local laws and regulations. Our Swiss defined benefit pension plan
account for a large majority of our aggregate pension plans' net
periodic benefit costs and projected benefit obligations. In
connection with these plans, we use certain actuarial assumptions
to determine the plans' net periodic benefit costs and projected
benefit obligations, the most significant of which are the expected
long-term rate of return on assets and the discount rate.
Our assumption for the weighted average expected long-term rate
of return on assets in our Swiss pension plan for determining the
net periodic benefit cost is 3.30% and 3.40% for 2014 and 2013,
respectively. We determine, based upon recommendations from our
pension plan's investment advisors, the expected rate of return
using a building block approach that considers diversification and
rebalancing for a long-term portfolio of invested assets. Our
investment advisors study historical market returns and preserve
long-term historical relationships between equities and fixed
income in a manner consistent with the widely accepted capital
market principle that assets with higher volatility generate a
greater return over the long run. They also evaluate market factors
such as inflation and interest rates before long-term capital
market assumptions are determined. Market conditions and other
factors can vary over time and could significantly affect our
estimates of the weighted average expected long-term rate of return
on plan assets. The expected rate of return is applied to the
market-related value of plan assets.
The weighted average discount rates used to calculate our
pension benefit obligations at June 30, 2014 and 2013 were 2.23%
and 2.36%, respectively. The weighted average discount rates used
to calculate our net periodic benefit costs for 2014 and 2013 were
2.36% and 2.47%, respectively. We determine the discount rate based
upon a hypothetical portfolio of high quality fixed income
investments with maturities that mirror the pension benefit
obligations at the plans' measurement date. Market conditions and
other factors can vary over time and could significantly affect our
estimates for the discount rates used to calculate our pension
benefit obligations and net periodic benefit costs for future
years.
Treasury Stock
Kofax Limited shares held by the Company are classified in
shareholders' equity as treasury shares and are recognized at cost.
Consideration received for the sale of such shares is also
recognized in equity, with any difference between the proceeds from
sale and the original cost being taken to equity. No gain or loss
is recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements on the
purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of equity shares
Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
significant concentrations of credit risk principally consist of
cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and trade accounts
receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents and
marketable securities with financial institutions with high credit
ratings. As part of its cash and investment management processes,
the Company performs periodic evaluations of the credit standing of
the financial institutions with whom it maintain deposits, and has
not recorded any credit losses to date. The Company performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition
and limits the amount of credit extended when deemed appropriate.
At June 30, 2014 and 2013, no customer accounted for greater than
10% of the Company's accounts receivable or 10% of its total
revenue for fiscal 2014 or 2013.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-02:
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Income, an update to Comprehensive Income (Topic
220). ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to present either on the face
of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes to
the financial statements any significant amounts reclassified out
of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line
items in the statement presenting net income. Additionally,
disclosures about the changes in each component of accumulated
other comprehensive income are also required. ASU 2013-02 requires
prospective application and is effective for fiscal years, and
interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15,
2012. We adopted ASU 2013-02 in the first quarter of fiscal 2013,
and there was no impact on our financial statements as ASU 2013-02
related to disclosure only.
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued an ASU on Income Taxes, to improve the presentation of an
unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a
similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This
guidance is expected to reduce diversity in practice and is
expected to better reflect the manner in which an entity would
settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would
result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating
loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards
exist. This guidance is effective for the Company's interim and
annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of
this amended guidance did not have an impact on our consolidated
results of operations or financial condition.
New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts
with Customers, issued as a new topic, ASC 606. The new revenue
recognition standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions
to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle
of the guidance is that a Company should recognize revenue to
depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in
an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The
new standard will also result in enhanced disclosures about
revenue, providing guidance for transactions that were not
previously addressed comprehensively, and improve guidance for
multiple-element arrangements. This ASU is effective for us
beginning in fiscal 2018 and can be adopted by the Company either
retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date
of adoption. We are currently evaluating the effect that adopting
this new accounting guidance will have on our consolidated
financial statements.
NOTE 3ACQUISITIONS
Fiscal Year 2014 Acquisition
On July 31, 2013, Kofax acquired 100% of the shares of Kapow
Technologies Holdings, Inc. (Kapow), a company incorporated in the
United States, specializing in data integration software. Kapow's
software will assist in Kofax's ability to integrate smart process
applications with third-party software for content import and
export purposes as well as data validation during a business
process. In addition, it will assist in penetrating the emerging
electronic content transformation segment of the multichannel
capture market, and is highly complementary to the recent
acquisition of Altosoft's business intelligence and analytics
products. Kapow was consolidated into our results of operations on
the acquisition date.
Of the total cash payment of $41.5 million, $40.5 million was
paid to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Kapow.
Additionally, $0.9 million and $0.1 million were charged directly
to operations and were included in Acquisition-related costs on the
Consolidated Statements of Income for the periods ended June 30,
2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Acquisition-related costs
include finder's fees, legal, advisory, valuation, accounting, and
other fees incurred to effect the business combination.
The goodwill of $25.9 million arising from the acquisition
consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected
from combining the operations of Kofax and Kapow. None of the
goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax
purposes. The following table summarizes the consideration paid for

Fiscal Year 2013 Acquisitions
On February 28, 2013, Kofax acquired 100% of the shares of
Altosoft Corporation (Altosoft), a company incorporated in the
United States, which is a provider of business intelligence and
analytics software. The Company acquired Altosoft to enhance
Kofax's product portfolio with near real-time process and data
analytics, visualization and extract, transform load capabilities.
Altosoft was consolidated into our results of operations on the
acquisition date.
Of the total cash payment of $12.8 million, $12.6 million was
paid to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of
Altosoft. Additionally, $0.2 million was charged directly to
operations and were included in Acquisition-related costs on the
Consolidated Statements of Income. Acquisition-related costs
include finder's fees, legal, advisory, valuation, accounting, and
other fees incurred to effect the business combination. None of the
goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The

Contingent consideration payments range between zero and $4.4
million. $2.0 million represents the acquisition-date fair value of
the payments that management estimated at that time will become
payable to the former shareholders of Altosoft and is included in
the purchase price allocation; however, none of the payments are
guaranteed. The contingent consideration payments are based on the
achievement of specific annual revenue growth rates and Earnings
Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA")
levels during calendar years 2013, 2014 and 2015.
Of the total purchase price, $2.0 million was withheld as
deferred consideration relating to representations and warranties
made by the sellers, including those related to the level of cash
and certain other net assets acquired. The Company paid the full
amount of deferred consideration in fiscal year 2014.
The Company has entered into separate employment agreements with
certain Altosoft employees subsequent to the acquisition in which
the Company will provide the employees with a retention package
that will include a cash bonus. The total anticipated payment is
$0.6 million, with the latest payment due in January 2015. The
retention bonus is being accrued as the employees provide services
and as of June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 there was $0.1 million
and $0.1 million, respectively, accrued and included in
Acquisition-related costs.
Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because
the effects of the business combinations described in this Note,
individually and in aggregate, were not material to our
consolidated results of operations.

million) related to the accretion of discounts initially recorded
upon acquisitions.
On December 5, 2011, Kofax acquired 100% of the shares of
Singularity Limited (Singularity), a company incorporated in
Northern Ireland, which is a provider of business process
management (BPM) software and dynamic case management solutions.
Singularity has historically conducted the majority of its
operations in the United Kingdom, and has subsidiaries that include
a substantial operating presence in India. The arrangement includes
contingent consideration payments based on the continuing
employment of certain continuing employees of Singularity and its
subsidiaries and license revenue arising from Singularity's license
products during calendar year 2012 and 2013. In 2013, an amendment
to the original agreement was made to include calendar year 2014.
The total for the range of these payments, before and after the
amendment is between zero and $14.7 million. Management determined
that $8.4 million of the contingent consideration should be treated
as compensation expense for financial accounting purposes, and that
$0.6 million was included as a component of the purchase price
consideration at the time of the acquisition.
During 2014 and 2013, management reassessed the estimated fair
value of the Singularity contingent consideration to be paid based
on actual and forecasted performance through calendar 2014, and
determined that a fair value adjustment was necessary to reverse
$2.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of the previously
accrued and expensed amounts to Acquisition-related costs. During
2014 and 2013, $2.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of the
contingent consideration determined to be remuneration was
recognized as Acquisition-related costs. During 2013, the Company
paid the first year of Singularity contingent consideration of $6.6
million of the total estimated contingent consideration.
In addition to the contingent consideration described above, a
retention and incentive bonus arrangement has been implemented for
certain continuing employees of Singularity. Under the retention
and incentive bonus structure, total payments ranging from zero to
$4.7 million may be paid. The incentive bonus has been structured
to mirror the contingent consideration payments described above. In
2012, based on the same estimates used to determine the fair value
of the contingent consideration, management estimated for financial
accounting purposes that $2.9 million of the incentive bonus would
become payable. During the period from the acquisition date to June
30, 2013, $2.2 million was recognized as Acquisition-related costs.
Retention and incentive bonus payments were $1.3 million during the
year ended June 30, 2013. Based on the 2013 reassessment of the
retention and incentive bonus amounts expected to ultimately be
paid, management determined that a fair value adjustment to reverse
$0.4 million of the previously accrued and expensed amounts also be
recorded to Acquisition-related costs.
On May 26, 2011, Kofax acquired 100% of the shares of Atalasoft,
Inc. (Atalasoft), a U.S. based company which is a provider of
imaging software development kits. The acquisition included
contingent consideration payments that range between zero and $5.1
million. $4.7 million represented the acquisition-date fair value
of the payments that management estimated at that time would become
payable to the former shareholders of Atalasoft; however, none of
the payments were guaranteed. The contingent consideration was
payable based on metrics to measure through September 30, 2013.
Payments of contingent consideration were $1.2 million and $2.0
million during the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013,
respectively.

The significant items impacting the fiscal 2014 effective tax
rate to vary from U.K. statutory rate of 22.5% are the foreign
earnings taxed at a higher tax rate, increase to the valuation
reserve in respect of losses which are not 'more likely than not'
to be realizable and non-deductible acquisition related expenses,
these were partially offset by the impact of tax credits and prior
year tax adjustments. The trading operations outside of the U.K.
are subject to an effective tax rate which is higher than the U.K.
statutory rate, specifically, the U.S. where the majority of the
trading profits are generated.
Temporary differences and carryforwards/carrybacks which give
rise to a significant portion of deferred tax assets and
liabilities as June 30, 2014 and 2013 are as follows:
2014 2013
($ in thousands)

Short-term deferred tax liability (217 ) (261 )
Long-term deferred tax liability (3,243 ) (7,994 )
Net deferred tax liabilities 1,919 (2,977 )
As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, the valuation allowance
represented a full valuation allowance against the majority of the
Company's net operating losses and its U.S. research and
development credits.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if,
based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence, it
is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred
tax assets will not be realized. During 2014 and 2013, the
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was increased by $0.0
million and $1.3 million, respectively. This related to an increase
in respect of net operating losses of $1.2 million and ($1.7
million in 2013) and increase for the U.S. research and development
credits of $0.2 million ($0.4 million reduction in 2013).
Accordingly, by the end of fiscal 2014, we continued to hold the
opinion that the net operating losses would remain unrealized,
increasing for the incremental increases in these losses during
fiscal 2014.
The Company has net operating loss carryforwards of $51.0
million that expire in 2018 and $2.7 million that expire in 2019.
All other net operating loss and credit carryforwards, which amount
to $54.3 million do not have an expiration period.
Uncertain tax positions
The aggregate changes in the balance of our gross unrecognized
tax benefits were as follows:
For the Year Ended June 30,
2014 2013
($ in thousands)
Balance at beginning of year 9,827 9,921

in prior periods
Lapse in statute (1,180 ) -
Settlement (107 ) (415 )
Balance at end of year 7,542 9,827
As of June 30, 2014, $6.9 million of the unrecognized tax
benefits, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. We do
not expect a significant change in the amount of unrecognized tax
benefits within the next twelve months.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to
unrecognized tax benefits in income tax provision. The Company had
$1.2 million and $0.7 million accrued for interests and penalties
at June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The Company
recognized interest and penalties of $0.5 million and $0.3 million
in its tax provision during fiscal years 2014 and 2013,
respectively.

NOTE 10RESTRUCTURING COSTS
The Company recorded a restructuring charge in fiscal 2012
involving the reorganization of various management and operational
functions, and a second phase of the shared service center in
Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA"). The Company also recorded
restructuring charges in 2011 in connection with the reorganization
of the operational structure mainly relating to hardware sales
management layers, and the first phase of the shared service center
consolidation. As part of the restructuring announced in 2011, a
number of the properties under operating leases became onerous. The
year-end provision represents the Company's estimate of the net
cost expected to arise across the remaining life of the lease on
these underutilized properties, which is between one and two
years.

NOTE 11BORROWING FACILITY
On August 11, 2011, the Company entered into a secured revolving
line of credit (the "Credit Facility"), with Bank of America, N.A.,
as Administrative Agent. The Credit Facility provides for
borrowings of up to $40.0 million, and is secured by the Company's
assets, including those of subsidiaries. On October 14, 2013, the
Company extended the term of its $40.0 million revolving line of
credit to June 30, 2016.
Subject to certain conditions, borrowings under the credit
facility can be denominated in U.S. dollars, Euros and certain
other currencies and can be made in the U.S. and certain other
countries. The credit facility is available for general corporate
purposes, including acquisitions, is secured by certain assets of
the Company and can be increased by an additional $10.0 million.
The Credit Facility requires us to maintain certain financial
ratios and other financial conditions and prohibits us from making
certain investments, advances, cash dividends or loans, and limits
incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens. As of June 30,
2014, the Company is in compliance with these covenants.
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had $39.5 million available
under the revolving line of credit, after having used $0.5 million
for the commitment of certain standby letters of credit in relation
to facility leases. Borrowings under the revolving line of credit
accrue interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50% to 1.75% plus a
base rate of 0.00% to 0.25%.
NOTE 12FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - HEDGING ACTIVITY
The Company has a formal hedging policy and benefits from
natural foreign exchange hedging. Specific high value foreign
currency balances are hedged through forward contracts at the
discretion of executive management and the Board of Directors.
The settlement of such contracts during the year ended June 30,
2014 gave rise to a net $0.6 million realized loss in the
consolidated income statements (2013: $0.1 million realized
gain).
At June 30, 2014, the Company has two open forward contracts to
hedge foreign currency exposure on 9.2 million South African rand
($0.8 million) of cash deposits held in South Africa and 9 million
Euros ($12.4 million). The fair value of the forward contracts at
the balance sheet date represents an immaterial liability and has a
maturity date of September 30, 2014.
NOTE 13FAIR VALUE MEASURES
Categories of financial instruments
The Company measures fair value based on the prices that would
be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. Fair value measurements are based on a three-tier hierarchy
that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers
include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted
prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than
quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or
indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs
for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an
entity to develop its own assumptions.
The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is
established based on market value advice received by management
from the issuing bank.

Foreign currency derivative instruments are valued using quoted
forward foreign exchange prices and option volatility at the
reporting date. The Company believes the fair values assigned to
its derivative instruments as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 are based
upon reasonable estimates and assumptions.
Contingent consideration liabilities represent future amounts
the Company may be required to pay in conjunction with various
business combinations. The ultimate amount of future payments is
based on specified future criteria, such as sales performance and
the achievement of certain future development, regulatory and sales
milestones and other contractual performance conditions. The
Company evaluates its estimates of the fair value of contingent
consideration liabilities on a periodic basis. Any changes in the
fair value of contingent consideration liabilities are recorded as
acquisition related costs in the Consolidated Income
Statements.
The Company estimates the fair value of the contingent
consideration liabilities related to revenue performance using the
income approach, which involves forecasting estimated future net
cash flows and discounting the net cash flows to their present
value using a risk-adjusted rate of return. The Company estimates
the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities related
to the achievement of future revenue milestones by assigning an
achievement probability to each potential milestone and discounting
the associated cash payment to its present value using a
risk-adjusted rate of return. The Company estimates the fair value
of the contingent consideration liabilities associated with revenue
milestones by employing Monte Carlo simulations to estimate the
volatility and systematic relative risk of revenues subject to
sales milestone payments and discounting the associated cash
payment amounts to their present values using a
credit-risk-adjusted interest rate. The unobservable inputs to the
valuation models that have the most significant effect on the fair
value of the Company's contingent consideration liabilities are the
probabilities that certain revenue milestones will be achieved.
During the reporting period ended June 30, 2014, there were no
transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. A
reconciliation of fair value measurements of Level 3 financial
instruments is disclosed below:

NOTE 14STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Employee benefit share plans
The Company operates an Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT") and
Employee Share Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), collectively "Employee
benefit shares". The cost of the Company's Employee benefit shares
are deducted from shareholders' funds in the Company Consolidated
Statements of Financial Position. Other assets and liabilities of
Employee benefit shares are also recognized as assets and
liabilities of the Company. Any Employee benefit shares are treated
as cancelled for the purpose of calculating earnings per share. Any
financing and administrative costs are charged to the Consolidated
Income Statement in the period in which the expenditure is
incurred.
During the year ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the
EBTpurchased a total of 725,000 and 210,000 common shares of the
Company's common shares listed on the London Stock Exchange at an
average price of 414.50 pence and 280.25 pence per share,
respectively. Following these purchases, 4,627,492 and 4,638,783
shares are held by the EBT and are included in employee benefit
shares in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of
June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively.
Treasury shares
At June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company held a total of 5,068,374

NOTE 15SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
We recognize share-based compensation expense over the requisite
service period. Our share-based awards are accounted for as equity
instruments. Share-based compensation expense amounts included in

Stock options
The Company has an incentive award plan that provides for the
granting of non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options
to officers, key employees and non-employee directors.
Stock option grants to officers and key employees under the
incentive award plan are generally granted at an exercise price
equal to the fair market value at the date of grant, generally
expire ten years after their original date of grant and generally
become vested and exercisable after four years at a rate of 25% per
year beginning twelve months after the date of grant and 6.25%
vesting each three months thereafter.
The fair value of share options granted is estimated at the date
of the grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model, taking into
account the terms and conditions upon which the share options were
granted.

(1) The aggregate intrinsic value used on this table was calculated
based on the positive difference between the closing
market value of our common stock on June 30, 2014 ($8.60)
and the exercise price of the underlying options.
Of the total number of options outstanding at the end of the
year, 4.1 million (2013: 4.3 million) had vested and were
exercisable at the end of the year at an average exercise price of
$3.34 (2013: $3.32). During the year 38,875 options expired (2013:
10,000). The weighted average share price (at the date of exercise)
of options exercised during the year was $6.60 (2013: $4.70).
As of June 30, 2014, the total unamortized fair value of stock
options was $1.4 million with a weighted average remaining
recognition period of 2.3 years. A summary of the weighted-average
grant-date fair value, including those assumed in respective
periods, and the intrinsic value of stock options exercised is as
follows:
2014 2013
Weighted-average grant-date $ 2.78 $ 1.79
fair value per share
Total intrinsic value of stock options $ 3.86 $ 2.61
exercised (in millions)
The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a
Black-Scholes option valuation model. The determination of fair
value using the Black-Scholes model is affected by the Company's
stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex
and subjective variables, including expected stock price
volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected dividends and
projected employee stock option exercise behaviors.
Subsequent to the Company's December 4, 2013 initial public
offering, options granted will be satisfied using shares purchased
on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. As such, the fair value of
options granted subsequent to December 5, 2013 used assumptions
based upon NASDAQ share trading information and stock prices for
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
Stock options granted during 2014 and 2013, prior to the
Company's initial public offering, were valued using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions:
For the Year Ended June 30,
2014 2013
Weighted average exercise price 363p 286p
Expected volatility 44.2% 43.5%
Expected dividend yield 0.0% 0.0%
Risk-free interest rate 1.8% 1.0%
Expected option life 5.4 years 5.2 years
The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that we have
never paid cash dividends and have no present intention to pay cash
dividends. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the average
United Kingdom government bond rate during the period, which
approximates the rate in effect at the time of grant, commensurate
with the expected life of the instrument. We estimate the expected
term of options granted based on historical exercise behavior.
Expected volatility was determined taking into account historic
volatility of the Company's London Stock Exchange ("LSE") share
price.
Stock options granted during 2014, subsequent to the Company's
initial public offering in the United States, were valued using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions:
For the Year Ended June 30,
2014
Weighted average exercise price $7.75
Expected volatility 40.6%
Expected dividend yield 0.0%
Risk-free interest rate 1.5%
Expected option life 5.4 years
The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that we have
never paid cash dividends and have no present intention to pay cash
dividends. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the average
U.S. Treasury STRIPS rate during the period, which approximates the
rate in effect at the time of grant, commensurate with the expected
life of the instrument. We estimate the expected term of options
granted based on historical exercise behavior. Expected volatility
was determined taking into account historical volatility of
selected peer companies and the Company's historical volatility, as
the Company's shares had limited trading history on the NASDAQ
Global Select Market subsequent to the Company's December 2013
initial public offering.

NOTE 16EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company sponsors various qualified defined benefit pension
plans covering a substantial portion of its employees. Foreign
pension benefits are based on various formulas that consider years
of service, average or highest earnings during specified periods of
employment and other criteria. A significant defined benefit
pension plan is sponsored in Switzerland. Other postretirement
benefit plans are sponsored in Austria, Italy, France, Belgium,
United Arab Emirates, Mexico and India.
The Swiss plan is managed by the Company and is accountable to
the pension plan members. Management has reviewed the terms and
conditions of the plan, in particular with regard to the mechanism
for funding any deficit that might arise. Although the plan has
many of the characteristics of a defined contribution plan, the
scheme effectively includes a minimum guaranteed annuity rate, any
shortfall in which the trustee would normally ask the employer to
contribute.
The Company recognizes on its balance sheet an asset or
liability equal to the over-or-under-funded benefit obligation of
each defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans.
Actuarial gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that
arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net
periodic benefit costs are recognized, net of tax, as a component
of other comprehensive income.
Included in accumulated other comprehensive income as of June
30, 2014 and 2013 are unrecognized actuarial losses of $0.5 million
and $1.0 million, respectively, related to the Company's pension
plans. Of the June 30, 2014 amount, the Company expects to
recognize approximately $4.4 million in net periodic benefit costs
during 2015.
Net Periodic Benefit Cost
Components of net periodic benefit costs for the years ended
2014, 2013 and 2012 were as follows;

and fair value of plan assets for pension plans with a projected
benefit obligation in excess of the fair value of plan assets and
pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of the
fair value of plan assets at June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as

The Company's funding policy for its funded pension plans is
based upon local statutory requirements. The Company's funding
policy is subject to certain statutory regulations with respect to
annual minimum and maximum company contributions. Plan benefits for
the nonqualified plans are paid as they come due.
Fair Value of Plan Assets
The Company measures the fair value of plan assets based on the
prices that would be received to sell an asset or aid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at
the measurement date. Fair value measurements are based on a
three-tier hierarchy described in Note 1, "Fair Value
Measurements." The table below presents total plan assets by
investment category as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 and the
classification of each investment category within the fair value

The Company's target asset allocation for its pension plans'
assets is not to exceed 50% equity securities, 15% alternative
investments, 30% real estate. Risk tolerance on invested pension
plan assets is established through careful consideration of plan
liabilities, plan funded status and corporate financial condition.
Investment risk is measured and monitored on an on-going basis
through annual liability measures, periodic asset/liability studies
and quarterly investment portfolio reviews.

NOTE 18COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating leases
The Company leases the majority of its property and equipment in
various countries. The terms of building leases vary from country
to country, with rent reviews between one and seven years, and many
lease contracts have break clauses.
Rent expense under all operating leases, including both
cancelable and noncancelable leases, was $7.8 million and $7.8
million in 2014 and 2013, respectively. Future minimum lease
payments under noncancelable operating leases having remaining
terms in excess of one year as of June 30, 2014, are as
follows:
For the Year Ended June 30,
($ in thousands)
2014 7,534
2016 4,576
2017 1,770
2018 472
2019 180
Thereafter 719
Total operating lease payments 15,251
Litigation and other claims
The Company is subject to legal proceedings, lawsuits and other
claims relating to labor, service and other matters arising in the
ordinary course of business. Management judgment is required in
deciding the amount and timing of the accrual of certain
contingencies. Depending on the timing of when conditions or
situations arise, the timing of a contingency becoming probable and
estimable is not necessarily determinable. The amount of the
contingency may change in the future as incremental knowledge,
factors or other matters change or become known.
There are no material pending or threatened lawsuits against the
Company.
Guarantees and other
The Company includes indemnification provisions in the contracts
it enters into with customers and business partners. Generally,
these provisions require us to defend claims arising out of the
Company's products' infringement of third-party intellectual
property rights, breach of contractual obligations and/or unlawful
or otherwise culpable conduct. The indemnity obligations generally
cover damages, costs and attorneys' fees arising out of such
claims. In most, but not all cases, the Company's total liability
under such provisions is limited to either the value of the
contract or a specified, agreed upon amount. In some cases our
total liability under such provisions is unlimited. In many, but
not all, cases, the term of the indemnity provision is perpetual.
While the maximum potential amount of future payments we could be
required to make under all the indemnification provisions is
unlimited, we believe the estimated fair value of these provisions
is minimal due to the low frequency with which these provisions
have been triggered.
The Company indemnifies its directors and officers to the
fullest extent permitted by law. These agreements, among other
things, indemnify directors and officers for expenses, judgments,
fines, penalties and settlement amounts incurred by such persons in
their capacity as a director or officer of the Company, regardless
of whether the individual is serving in any such capacity at the
time the liability or expense is incurred. Additionally, in
connection with certain acquisitions we have agreed to indemnify
the former officers and members of the boards of directors of those
companies, on similar terms as described above, for a period of six
years from the acquisition date. In certain cases we purchase
director and officer insurance policies related to these
obligations, which fully cover the six year periods. To the extent
that we do not purchase a director and officer insurance policy for
the full period of any contractual indemnification, we would be
required to pay for costs incurred, if any, as described above.
NOTE 19SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Acquisition of SoftPro GmbH
On September 1, 2014, Kofax acquired 100% of the shares of
SoftPro GmbH (SoftPro), a company incorporated in Germany,
specializing in e-signature and signature verification solutions.
The Company believes SoftPro's software will accelerate Kofax's
ability to improve customer interactions by enabling organizations
to offer a streamlined, fully digital and secure experience to
their constituents and transform customer workflow to an
all-electronic process, dramatically accelerating closure in any
type of transaction that requires a contract. Additionally, SoftPro
provides a full suite of banking solutions including signature
verification, authentication and fraud detection. These
capabilities, offered both on premise and in the cloud, further
differentiate Kofax's smart process application (SPA) offering from
competitors who do not offer these capabilities. The acquisition
will be accounted for using the acquisition method.
Below we provide provisional information on the acquisition. The
valuation had not been completed by the date the financial
statements were approved for issue by management. Full information
on the acquisition of SoftPro will be disclosed in the Company's
annual financial statements for the year ending June 30, 2015.

The Company's management has evaluated events and transactions
that have occurred after June 30, 2014 (i.e., subsequent events)
through September 2, 2014, the date at which the accompanying
financial statements were available to be issued. Management has
determined that no material subsequent events have occurred during
that period that would require the Company to either recognize the
financial impact of such events in the accompanying financial
statements, or disclose any such events to ensure the financial
statements are not misleading.
