NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies
Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared by XATA Corporation (the Company) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures made herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto in its Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009 and Annual Report to Shareholders filed with the SEC.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Turnpike Global Technologies, Inc. and Turnpike Global Technologies LLC (combined “Turnpike”) and GeoLogic Solutions, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its revenue from sales or rental of hardware, software and related services. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 985-605 — Software — Revenue Recognition, ASC 605-10 — Revenue Recognition — Overall, and ASC 605-25 — Revenue Recognition — Multiple Element Arrangements . Revenues are presented net of any taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities.
Software revenue is recognized under ASC 985-605 and ASC 605-10 when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists (for example a signed agreement or purchase order), (ii) delivery has occurred, as evidenced by shipping documents or customer acceptance, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and payable within twelve months, and (iv) collectability is probable and supported by credit checks or past payment history.
With regard to software arrangements involving multiple elements, the Company allocates revenue to the software and services elements based on the fair value of each element with the residual amount allocated to the systems revenue which is recognized upon delivery. The Company’s determination of fair value relating to the software and services elements in multiple-element arrangements is based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE). The Company’s assessment of VSOE for each element is either the price charged when the same element is sold separately or the price established by management if that item is not yet sold separately. The Company has analyzed all of the elements included in its multiple-

Table of Contents

element software arrangements and has determined that it has sufficient VSOE to allocate revenue to the services and software components of its arrangements. Accordingly, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met, revenue from the software component is recognized ratably over the applicable term.
With regards to arrangements involving multiple-elements that do not give customers the explicit contractual right to take possession of our software at any time during the hosting period, revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 605-25. Under ASC 605-25, the hardware element must have stand alone value and the monthly service element must have objective and reliable evidence of the fair value. Revenue is allocated based on the fair value of each element as evidenced by vendor specific objective evidence. Such evidence consists primarily of pricing of multiple elements as if sold as separate products or services. When the fair value of any undelivered element included in a multiple-element arrangement cannot be objectively determined, revenue is deferred until all elements are delivered and/or services have been performed, or until we can objectively determine the fair value of all remaining undelivered elements.
Agreements that do not meet the requirements described in ASC 985-605 or ASC 605-25, results in the recognition of all revenue ratably over the term of the agreement.
Third-Party Reseller Agreements
The Company has contracted with various resellers in the US and Canada, collectively the “Resellers”, to allow for them to sell the RouteTracker application in combination with their own communication services. The customer contracts directly with the Resellers for the communication services and RouteTracker application. The customer is billed by and remits all payments to the Resellers. The Resellers then remit a set portion of revenues collected that relate to the RouteTracker application to the Company and retains the remainder as their own revenue. In accordance with ASC 605-45 — Revenue Recognition - Principal Agent Considerations , the Company records the revenue received from the resellers net of the amounts retained by the resellers.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company grants credit to customers in the normal course of business. The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable and investment in sales-type leases receivable are due from companies with fleet trucking operations in a variety of industries. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required, although sales-type leases receivable are secured by a retained security interest in the leased equipment. Accounts receivable are typically due from customers within 30 days and are stated at amounts net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade receivables are past due, our previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company reserves for these accounts receivable by increasing bad debt expense when they are determined to be uncollectible. Payments subsequently received, or otherwise determined to be collectible, are treated as recoveries that reduce bad debt expense.
Foreign Currency Translation
The financial statements with a functional currency other than the USD have been translated into USD using the current rate method. Assets and liabilities have been translated using the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Income and expense amounts have been translated using the average exchange rates

during the period. Translation gains or losses resulting from the changes in exchange rates have been reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the statements of changes in shareholders’ equity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated all subsequent events to ensure that this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes appropriate disclosure of events both recognized in the financial statements as of June 30, 2010, and events which occurred subsequent to June 30, 2010.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments in overnight sweep and money market accounts. Cash and cash equivalents are in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value Hierarchy
ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, which the Company adopted for nonfinancial assets and liabilities as of October 1, 2009, establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are obtained from independent sources and can be validated by a third party, whereas unobservable inputs reflect assumptions regarding what a third party would use in pricing an asset or liability. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 — Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2010, according to the valuation techniques we used to determine their fair values.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, sales-type lease receivables, accounts payable, and capital lease obligations, approximate fair value. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is approximated using level 1 inputs. The fair value of accounts receivable, sales-type lease receivables, accounts payable, and capital lease obligations is approximated using level 3 inputs.
Inventories
Inventories consist of finished goods which are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the average cost method, which approximates the first-in, first-out method.
Investment in Sales-Type Leases
The Company records the investment in sales-type leases at the present value of the future minimum lease payments. There is no guaranteed residual value associated with the leased devices. The receivables generally have terms of five years and are collateralized by a security interest in the related equipment. The Company records subscriber revenue on these leased devices as the ongoing service is provided over the term of the related lease agreement and recognizes interest income as the lease payments are billed to the customers. Future minimum lease payments to the Company under non-cancelable sales-type leases as of June 30, 2010 are as follows (in thousands):
         
Years ending September 30,

Interest income from sales-type leases was approximately $2,000 and $18,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Interest income from sales-type leases was approximately $14,000 and $71,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Debt Financing Costs
Debt financing costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the related financing agreement on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method. The net carrying value of the debt financing costs was approximately $0.5 million as of September 30, 2009. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company paid the outstanding balance on its $8.0 million term loan and $0.5 million line of credit and charged the remaining unamortized balance of the related debt financing costs of $0.5 million to “Interest expense on financing activities” in the statement of operations.

Equipment, Leased Equipment and Leasehold Improvements
Purchased equipment and leased equipment under capital leases are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of approximately two to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the remaining lease term at the time of purchase or their estimated useful lives (one to seven years). Depreciation for income tax reporting purposes is computed using accelerated methods.

Total depreciation expense was approximately $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total depreciation expense was approximately $1.1 million and $1.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Depreciation on leased RouteTracker equipment is recorded as cost of goods sold and was $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.
Capitalized Software Development Costs
System development costs incurred after establishing technological feasibility are capitalized as capitalized system development costs in accordance with Statement of ASC 985-20 — Software — Costs to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed . Costs that are capitalized are amortized to cost of goods sold beginning when the product is first released for sale to the general public. Amortization is at the greater of the amount computed using the ratio of current gross revenues for the product to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues or the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the product (two to five years). As of June 30, 2010 there was $0.3 million of capitalized development costs. At September 30, 2009 there were no capitalized development costs.
Product development costs that do not meet the capitalization criteria of ASC 985-20 are charged to research and development expense as incurred.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the sum of the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount.

Goodwill
As of June 30, 2010, the Company had a goodwill balance of $15.5 million of which $3.0 million resulted from the Company’s acquisition of GeoLogic Solutions, Inc. on January 31, 2008 and $12.5 million resulted from the Company’s preliminary purchase price allocation for its acquisition of Turnpike on December 4, 2009. The Company records goodwill when the purchase price of net tangible and intangible assets acquired exceeds their fair value. In accordance with ASC 350-20 — Intangibles — Goodwill and Others, the Company reviews goodwill for impairment at least annually, on the first day of the fourth quarter, or more frequently if an event occurs indicating the potential for impairment. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. We have one reporting unit. The annual goodwill impairment test is a two-step process. First, we determine if the carrying value of our related reporting unit exceeds fair value, which would indicate that goodwill may be impaired. If we then determine that goodwill may be impaired, we compare the implied fair value of the goodwill to its carrying amount to determine if there is an impairment loss. The Company’s most recent review was completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 and concluded that no impairment existed.
The changes in the net carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 are as follows:
         
Balance at September 30, 2009
  $ 3,011  
Goodwill from acquisition of Turnpike

Balance at June 30, 2010
  $ 15,459  
 
     
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. The Company amortizes the cost of identified intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their expected economic lives. In accordance with ASC 360-10 — Property, Plant, and Equipment — Overall, the Company reviews intangible assets that have finite useful lives when an event occurs indicating the potential for earlier impairment. The Company measures impairment losses related to long-lived assets based on the amount by which the carrying amounts of these assets exceed their fair values. The Company measures fair value under ASC 360-10, which is generally based on the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows. The Company’s analysis is based on available information and on assumptions and projections it considers to be reasonable and supportable. The cash flow analysis considers the likelihood of possible outcomes and is based on the Company’s best estimate of projected future cash flows. If necessary, the Company performs subsequent calculations to measure the amount of the impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the impaired assets.

Product Warranties
The Company sells its products with a limited warranty. The Company provides for estimated warranty costs in relation to the recognition of the associated revenue. Factors affecting the Company’s product warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of claims and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its product warranty liability based on changes in these factors.
At June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009, the Company had accruals for product warranties of approximately $1.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively. These amounts are included in accrued expenses on the Company’s balance sheet.
Shipping Costs
Shipping costs, which are classified as a component of cost of goods sold, were approximately $0.1 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Customer billings related to shipping and handling fees are reported as systems revenue.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs consist primarily of ad campaigns, catalog brochures, promotional items and trade show expenses and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, were $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Advertising costs were approximately $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes following the provisions of ASC 740-10 — Income Taxes - Overall . ASC 740-10 requires that deferred income taxes be recognized for the future tax consequences associated with differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year end, based on enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable earnings. Valuation allowances are established by the Company when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount more likely than not to be realized. The effect of changes in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the rate change occurs.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (ASU 2010-06)
In January 2010, the FASB published ASU 2010-06 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): — Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU No. 2010-06 clarifies improved disclosure requirement related to fair value measurements and disclosures — Overall Subtopic (Subtopic 820-10) of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlement in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
Revenue Recognition (ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14)
In October 2009, the FASB issued the following ASUs: ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (ASC Topic 605) — Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force and ASU No. 2009-14, Software (ASC Topic 985) — Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force.
ASU No. 2009-13: This guidance modifies the fair value requirements of ASC subtopic 605-25 Revenue Recognition-Multiple Element Arrangements by allowing the use of the “best estimate of selling price” in addition to VSOE and VOE (now referred to as TPE standing for third-party evidence) for determining the selling price of a deliverable. A vendor is now required to use its best estimate of the selling price when VSOE or TPE of the selling price cannot be determined. In addition, the residual method of allocating arrangement consideration is no longer permitted.
ASU No. 2009-14: This guidance modifies the scope of ASC subtopic 965-605 Software-Revenue Recognition to exclude from its requirements (a) non-software components of tangible products and (b) software components of tangible products that are sold, licensed, or leased with tangible products

when the software components and non-software components of the tangible product function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality.
These updates require expanded qualitative and quantitative disclosures and are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. However, companies may elect to adopt as early as interim periods ended September 30, 2009. These updates may be applied either prospectively from the beginning of the fiscal year for new or materially modified arrangements or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting these updates on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Turnpike Global Technologies, Inc. and Turnpike Global Technologies LLC Acquisition
On December 4, 2009, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity of Turnpike for a purchase price at closing consisting of $10.0 million in cash and 833,333 shares of common stock of the Company. Additionally, the Company committed to pay total earn-outs up to an additional 2,500,000 shares of common stock upon achievement by Turnpike of certain performance goals for 2010, 2011, and 2012 fiscal years. All share related activity required shareholder approval. On February 17, 2010 the Company’s shareholders approved the transaction and common shares totaling 809,993 were issued to the shareholders of Turnpike, with the value of the remaining 23,340 shares being settled in cash of $70,000 to non-accredited U.S. holders. Prior to shareholder approval, the fair value of the common shares and contingent earn out was recorded as long term obligations of the Company with periodic re-measurement of fair value. The imputed interest on the common shares and the mark to market adjustment for the earn-outs has been shown as “Acquisition related interest and mark to market” on the statement of operations.
In connection with financing the acquisition of Turnpike, the Company issued convertible debt totaling $30.2 million. The convertible debt was converted into 10,066,663 shares of Series G preferred stock and warrants to purchase 3,019,995 common shares (with an exercise price of $3.00 per share) on February 19, 2010, subsequent to shareholder approval. The convertible debt carried an interest rate of 14% per annum. The Company used proceeds from the convertible debt for the purchase of Turnpike, payment of transaction costs, pay off of the term loan with Partner’s for Growth II, L.P. (“PFG”) of $8.0 million and to pay a litigation settlement. The remaining proceeds are being utilized for working capital needs and future growth. The interest on the convertible debt while it was outstanding has been included in “Interest expense on financing activities” on the statement of operations.

Note 4. Stock-Based Compensation
In February 2007, the Company adopted the 2007 Long Term Incentive and Stock Option Plan (the 2007 Plan). The 2007 Plan permits the granting of “incentive stock options” meeting the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and nonqualified options that do not meet the requirements of Section 422. Stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, and restricted stock

units may also be granted under the 2007 Plan. A total of 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were originally reserved for issuance pursuant to equity awards under the 2007 Plan. Subsequently, 1,000,000 shares were approved for addition to the 2007 Plan at the 2009 Annual Shareholders Meeting. The 2007 Plan has an evergreen provision in which the maximum number of shares that may be issued under the 2007 Plan shall be cumulatively increased on January 1, 2008 and on each January 1 thereafter for nine years by the lesser of (i) 500,000 Common Shares, (ii) 3% of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares, on an as-converted basis, as of the preceding December 31 and (iii) a number of Common Shares determined by the Board or Committee. The Company has 488,790 shares authorized and available for future equity awards as of June 30, 2010. Generally, the options that are granted under the 2007 Plan are exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of grant and vest over a period of up to three years from the date of grant.
Stock Options
The Company accounts for share-based employee compensation plans under the provisions of ASC 718 — Compensation — Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees and directors based on estimated fair values.
The fair value of each option is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted average fair value at the date of grant and the assumptions used to determine such values are indicated in the following table (number of shares in thousands):
                                 
    For the Three Months Ended     For the Nine Months Ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
    2010     2009     2010     2009

    3.07 %           3.06 %     2.28 %

Expected life (in years)
    6.00             5.94       5.73  
Dividend yield
                       
The Company estimates the volatility of the common stock at the date of grant based on a historical volatility rate, consistent with ASC 718. The decision to use historical volatility was based upon the lack of traded common stock options. The expected term is estimated consistent with the simplified method, as identified in ASC 718-10 — Compensation — Stock Compensation — Overall, for share-based awards granted during fiscal 2010 and 2009. The simplified method calculates the expected term as the average of the vesting and contractual terms of the award. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on observed interest rates appropriate for the term of the options. The Company uses historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures and records share-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. The fair value of options are amortized over the vesting period of the awards utilizing a straight-line method.

On December 19, 2008, pursuant to and in accordance with the recommendation of the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company extended the expiration date of all employee stock options previously issued under the 2007 Long-Term Incentive and Stock Option Plan and the 2002 Long-Term Incentive and Stock Option Plan from five years to ten years. No changes were made to any other terms of the stock options and the exercise prices remained the same. The total impact of this modification is that an additional $80,000 of compensation cost is being recognized ratably over the remaining vesting periods of the modified options.

As of June 30, 2010, there was approximately $0.8 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to stock option awards. The Company will recognize this cost over the remaining vesting periods of these options. The weighted average period over which the costs will be recognized is 1.5 years.
Restricted Stock Awards
The Company grants restricted shares of common stock as part of its long-term incentive compensation to employees. Fair market values of restricted stock awards are determined based on the closing market price on the date of grant. Restricted stock awards vest over one to three years and stock may be sold once vested. The Company also granted 15,000 shares of common stock to certain directors in each of fiscal 2010 and 2009. Restricted stock awards granted to directors vest immediately.

In February 2010, the Company had a change in control, as defined in the employee RSU agreements, due to the issuance of the Series G preferred stock. This change in control was a triggering event for the acceleration of the vesting and settlement of a portion of the Company’s outstanding restricted stock units. As a result of this acceleration, the Company recognized a charge of $0.2 million.
At June 30, 2010, there was approximately $0.4 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted stock units. The Company will recognize this cost over the remaining vesting periods of these units. The weighted average period over which the costs will be recognized is 1.8 years.

In connection with the financing of the acquisition of GeoLogic Solutions, Inc., the Company entered into a three-year secured credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) consisting of a $10.0 million revolving line of credit bearing interest at a floating rate equal to 0.5% over SVB’s Prime Rate. Also in connection with the acquisition of GeoLogic Solutions, Inc., the Company entered into a four year secured credit facility consisting of an $8.0 million term loan with Partner’s for Growth II, L.P. (“PFG”) bearing interest at a fixed rate of 14.5%, subject to adjustment under various circumstances. The balances outstanding were $0.5 million and $8.0 million at September 30, 2009, for the revolving line of credit and term loan, respectively. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010 both facilities were paid in full and subsequently canceled.
In connection with financing the acquisition of Turnpike in December 2009, the Company issued convertible debt totaling $30.2 million. On February 19, 2010, the convertible debt converted into 10,066,663 shares of Series G preferred stock and warrants to purchase 3,019,995 common shares. The

22


Table of Contents

convertible debt carried an interest rate of 14% per annum. The interest expense recorded for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 was approximately $0.9 million. The Company used proceeds of the convertible debt for the purchase of Turnpike, pay off the term loan with PFG of $8.0 million and to pay a litigation settlement. The remaining proceeds are being utilized for working capital needs and future growth.
The value of common stock relating to the Turnpike acquisition and related contingent earn outs were treated as debt until shareholder approval was received on February 17, 2010. Subsequently, these amounts were reclassified as equity. These items were re-measured at their fair value at the end of each period and on the date of shareholder approval. Charges for this re-measurement were approximately $2,000 and $0.4 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010. The portion of the earn-out to be settled in cash will continue to be re-measured at fair value at the end of each period until settlement.
In connection with the acquisition of Turnpike, the Company acquired a Master Lease Agreement with Buffalo City Center Leasing, LLC (“BCCL”) effective October 1, 2007 for financing of certain equipment used in the RouteTracker product offerings. The Master Lease Agreement has a term of 3 years with a renewal option for an additional 3 year term. Leases under the Master Lease Agreement have a term of twenty seven months and effective interest rates of between 16.1% and 16.5% with monthly payments including principal and interest. The balance of the Company’s capital lease obligation with BCCL was $1.1 million at June 30, 2010.
Note 7. Shareholders’ Equity
Common Stock
The Company is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock.
Preferred Stock
The Company has authorized an undesignated class of preferred stock of 50,000,000 shares. The Board of Directors can issue preferred stock in one or more series and fix the terms of such stock without shareholder approval. Preferred stock may include the right to vote as a series on particular matters, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion and redemption rights and sinking fund provisions.
Series B
In December 2003, the Company sold 1,613,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for $4.1 million, or $2.54 per share. Each share of the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock. The Series B Preferred Stock pays a cumulative dividend of 4% of the original issue price per annum (payable semi-annually) on each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock. The dividend is payable in additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock rather than cash, at the option of the holders.
Series C
In September 2005, the Company sold 1,269,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock for $5.0 million, or $3.94 per share. Each share of the Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock.

23


Table of Contents

Series D
In June 2007, the Company sold 1,567,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock for $6.0 million, or $3.83 per share. Each share of the Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock.
Series E and Series F
In February 2009, the Company sold 1,355,857 shares of Series E Preferred Stock for $3.0 million, or $2.22 per share. Each share of the Series E Preferred Stock was converted into one share of the Series F Preferred Stock in April 2009 and the Certificate of Designation for the Series E Preferred Stock was cancelled. Each share of Series F Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock.
Series G
In December 2009 in connection with financing the acquisition of Turnpike, the Company issued convertible debt totaling $30.2 million. The convertible debt was converted into 10,066,663 shares of Series G preferred stock on February 19, 2010, subsequent to shareholder approval. Each share of Series G Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock. The price per share of Series G Preferred Stock and the conversion price for the common stock is $3.00. The Series G Preferred Stock does not pay a dividend, unless the Company declines to redeem the stock upon demand of the holders after five years from the date of issuance, a change in control, or an Acceleration Event (as defined in the Certificate of Designation of the Series G Preferred Stock). In that case, the Series G Preferred Stock pays a cumulative dividend of 4% of the original issue price per annum on each outstanding share of Series G Preferred Stock (payable in cash). The Series G Preferred Stock has a non-participating liquidation right equal to the original issue price, plus accrued unpaid dividends, which is senior to the Company’s common stock and the Series B, Series C, Series D and Series F Preferred Stock. The Company may redeem the Series G Preferred Stock at its option after five years from the date of issuance at the original issue price, plus accrued unpaid dividends, if the market value of the common stock is at least three times the then effective conversion price for a specified period.
Additionally, as part of the debt conversion, the Company issued 7-year warrants to purchase 3,019,995 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. The aggregate fair value of the warrants was $3.9 million. The warrants permit “cashless exercise.”
In connection with this transaction, the Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature valued at $1.7 million. The beneficial conversion value was determined by first allocating the proceeds from the convertible debt on a fair value basis between the underlying preferred stock and the warrants and then comparing the fair value of the preferred stock and the computed purchase price on the date of the commitment. The difference between the fair value and the computed purchase price was recorded as the value of the beneficial conversion and was recorded as a debit to the preferred stock and a credit to additional paid in capital at the time of conversion. In addition, the Company recognized a deemed dividend of $1.7 million related to the beneficial conversion feature because the value was available to the holders since the shares were immediately eligible for conversion. The deemed dividend was recognized as a charge to accumulated deficit and a credit to the preferred stock.
No broker or placement agent was involved in the placement of the preferred stock and warrants in this transaction and no commissions or other compensation was paid.

Note 8. Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Generally, diluted net income per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other obligations to issue common stock such as options, restricted stock units, warrants or convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company.
Net income (loss) per common share is based on weighted average shares outstanding as summarized in the following table:
                                 
    Three months ended     Nine months ended  
    June 30,     June 30,

Diluted net loss per common share is equal to basic net loss per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 because the effect of including such securities or obligations would have been antidilutive.
Potentially dilutive securities representing approximately 7.2 million and 7.5 million shares of common stock outstanding for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, and 4.3 million shares of common stock outstanding for both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements involving risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements. Numerous factors, risks and uncertainties affect the Company’s operating results and could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from forecasts and estimates or from any other forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company, and there can be no assurance that future results will meet expectations, estimates or projections. Risks and uncertainties about us include, but are not limited to, the following:
    although we have generated operating income recently, operating losses may occur in the future and may be in excess of amounts that could be funded from operations and thus we may be dependent upon external investment to support our operations during these periods;
 
    we will continue to be dependent upon positioning systems and communication networks owned and controlled by others, and accordingly, their problems may adversely impact us;
 
    for the foreseeable future, we are dependent upon the continued receipt and fulfillment of new orders for our current products;
 
    our growth and profitability depend on our timely introduction and market acceptance of new products, our ability to continue to fund research and development activities, and our ability to establish and maintain strategic partner relationships.
Further information regarding these and other risks is included in “Risk Factors” in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, in this Form 10-Q and in our other filings we make with the SEC.
Overview
XATA is one of the leading providers of fleet management solutions to the truck transportation industry. Our innovative technologies and value-added services are intended to enable customers to optimize the utilization of their assets and enhance the productivity of fleet operations across the entire supply chain, resulting in decreased costs, improved compliance with U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, and enhanced customer service.
Founded in 1985, XATA began providing fleet management solutions to the private fleet segment of the truck transportation industry. XATA currently addresses the private fleet segment through XATANET, its flagship software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution. With the acquisition of GeoLogic Solutions, Inc. in January of 2008, XATA expanded its solutions to include the MobileMax productline, which provides the commercial trucking industry with wireless asset management solutions in the for-hire segment of the over-the-road transportation sector.
In December 2009, XATA acquired Turnpike Global Technologies, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA)-based fleet operations solution provider. Turnpike’s RouteTracker products allows XATA to continue its growth strategy by expanding the addressable market through low-cost options to include small and medium-size fleets in North America and key vertical markets, such as Less Than Truckload (LTL), and the automation of fuel tax reporting.

Over the past two decades, XATA has developed relationships with the nation’s largest fleets including CVS Pharmacy, Dean Foods, Sysco, US Foodservice, and xpedx to find and develop technologies that provide information about their fleets and transform that data into actionable intelligence. With the acquisition of Turnpike, XATA has relationships with additional customers such as Coca-Cola and Loblaws.
XATA pioneered innovations, such as learned standards and paperless driver logs. We engineer software that improves overall transportation operations and integrates fleet data with back-office billing, payroll and routing systems.
Technology, People, Processes
XATA takes a three-prong approach to meeting its customer’s fleet management needs:
    Technology. XATA provides a total fleet management solution, including hardware, software and services through the following solutions:
    XATANET, our web-based, on-demand scalable software, includes a variety of web-based enterprise applications. XATANET provides critical real-time information about our customers’ fleets, allows for paperless driver logs and provides summary and granular reports on driver and vehicle performance. XATANET can also integrate with back-office applications, for a seamless flow of information, and our software works with a variety of in-cab communications devices.
 
    MobileMax helps for-hire trucking companies track and manage nearly every aspect of their fleets’ activities to help control costs and increase ROI. The MobileMax solution features Multi-Mode communication capabilities that automatically switch between land-based and satellite communications to take advantage of the cost-savings and reliability of both terrestrial and satellite communication. MobileMax integrates with dispatching and routing applications for a seamless flow of information.
 
    RouteTracker has been recognized as one of the first solutions to fully automate, from end-to-end, the fuel and mileage tax process required by the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA). RouteTracker interacts with various handheld devices using Bluetooth as a wireless in-cab communication medium. The information collected by RouteTracker is made available to the end-user via web-based reporting.
    People. With employee expertise in safety, fleet management and technology, XATA is able to provide consultation services to help organizations implement best practices for fleet productivity and develop specific customer hardware and reporting requirements.
 
    Processes. All XATA processes are designed to make managing fleets easier. Drawing on hundreds of successful implementations with a wide variety of fleets from multibillion-dollar organizations to small, single owner operations, XATA carefully plans each phase of the implementation and follows well established methodologies. The process begins with assessing our customers’ objectives. Then, we develop a detailed implementation schedule that includes all aspects of the project, from implementation to conversion, integration, training and problem solving.

What we believe to be the most critical of these policies and methods are described in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009. Management made no changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies during the quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Revenue
Total revenue increased 2 percent to $18.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $17.6 million for the same period in fiscal 2009. For the nine months ended June 30, 2010, total revenue increased 9 percent to $53.6 million compared to $49.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2009. Software revenue, including monthly subscriptions from XATANET and RouteTracker solutions, and monthly fees from MobileMax and OpCenter product lines, increased 29 percent to comprise 65 percent of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 51 percent for the same period in fiscal 2009. For the nine months ended June 30, 2010 software revenue increased 31 percent to comprise 62 percent of total revenue compared to 52 percent for the same period in fiscal 2009. . The growth in software revenue reflects an increase in the number of subscriptions, strong customer renewal, the launch of new software functionality and the acquisition of Turnpike subscriptions.
Systems revenue, which includes hardware, warranty, repair, and activation revenue, decreased 21 percent to comprise 30 percent of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 39 percent for the same period in fiscal 2009. For the nine months ended June 30, 2010, systems revenue decreased 11 percent to comprise 32 percent of total revenue compared to 39 percent for the same period in fiscal 2009. The decline in systems revenue has been impacted by lower system sales in the private fleet segment as some customers migrate to lower priced systems and the increase in the use of hand held components purchased by the customer directly from a third party as part of the system.
Services revenue, which includes training, implementation, installation, and professional service revenue, decreased 46 percent and comprise 5 percent of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 10 percent for the same period in fiscal 2009. For the nine months ended June 30, 2010, services revenue decreased 28 percent and comprised 6 percent of total revenue compared to 9 percent for the same period in fiscal 2009. Services revenue was impacted by a decrease in installation revenue.
On an organic basis, overall revenue declined 8 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2010 over the same period in fiscal 2009. This decline was driven by a 29 percent decrease in our lower margin systems. For the nine months ended June 30, 2010, revenue remained flat on an organic basis compared to the same period in fiscal 2009. On an organic basis, software revenue grew by 12 percent and 17 percent for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2009.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Margin
Cost of software . Cost of software consists of communication, hosting costs, depreciation of rental units, and direct personnel costs related to network, infrastructure, and RouteTracker customer support. Cost of software increased 20 percent for the each of three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2009 supporting software revenue growth of 29 percent and 31 percent over the same periods. Software gross margin improved 2 percentage points for each of the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2009. The margin improvement was driven by the increased number of software subscriptions.
Cost of systems . Cost of systems consists of the direct product costs, warranty costs, product repair costs, and direct personnel costs related to XATANET and MobileMax technical support. Cost of systems decreased 23 percent and 1 percent for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2009 supporting systems revenue decreases of 21 percent and 11 percent over the same periods. Systems gross margins increased 2 percentage points for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in fiscal 2009 as a result of improved product quality resulting in lower warranty costs. Systems gross margins decreased 9 percentage points for the nine

months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period in fiscal 2009 as a result of lower margins on new units sales and additional costs related to end of life components.
Cost of services . Cost of services consists of third party vendor costs and direct costs related to service personnel. Cost of services decreased 18 percent and 17 percent for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2009. Service gross margins decreased 32 and 9 percentage points for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2009. Service margins were impacted by a decrease in higher margin installation activity.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of employee salaries in our executive, sales, client management and administration functions, sales commissions, marketing and promotional expenses, administrative and facilities costs, and professional fees. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.6 million or 37 percent of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $5.7 million and 32 percent of revenue for the same period in fiscal 2009. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was driven by $0.3 million of additional amortization expense associated with the Turnpike acquisition and $0.6 million in selling costs associated with our Turnpike product line. Selling, general, and administrative expenses excluding Turnpike acquisition costs were flat on a year over year basis. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $19.7 million or 37 percent of revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $17.4 million and 35 percent of revenue for the same period in fiscal 2009.
Research & Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist of employee salaries and expenses related to development of software and systems. Research and development expenses were $1.8 million or 10 percent of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $1.4 million or 8 percent of revenue for the comparable period in fiscal 2009. Research and development expenses were $4.7 million or 9 percent of revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $4.2 million or 9 percent of revenue for the comparable period in fiscal 2009. Research and development expenses increased as we continue to invest in improvements to our current solutions and future functionality and the impact of the Turnpike acquisition.
Acquisition Related Costs
In connection with the acquisition of Turnpike, the Company incurred costs of $0.8 million of direct out-of-pocket costs for the nine months ended June 30, 2010. In accordance with ASC 805 — Business Combinations , the Company expensed these costs as incurred as period costs.
Interest Expense on Financing Activities
There was no interest expense on financing acitivities recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Interest expense on financing acitivities recorded for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 was approximately $1.4 million, which included interest related to the convertible debt of $0.9 million and the write off of the unamortized balance of prepaid financing fees of $0.5 million associated with the retirement of several debt facilities.

Acquisition Related Interest and Mark to Market Expense
The fair value of the common shares and contingent earn out was recorded as long term obligations of the Company prior to shareholder approval. These items were re-measured at their fair value at the end of each period and on the date of shareholder approval. Charges for this re-measurement were approximately $2,000 and $0.4 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.
Net Interest and Other Expense
Net interest and other expense decreased $0.3 million to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $0.4 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2009. Net interest and other expense decreased $0.7 million to $0.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $1.1 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2009. This decrease was driven by the retirement of several debt facilities.
Income Taxes
No income tax benefit or expense was recorded for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 as the result of operating losses. The Company does not have objectively verifiable positive evidence of future taxable income as prescribed by ASC 740 — Income Tax . Accordingly, we concluded that a full valuation allowance was appropriate. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income during the periods when deductible temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. The amount of the net deferred tax asset considered realizable could be increased in the future if we return to profitability and actual future taxable income is higher than currently estimated. At September 30, 2009, we had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $44.6 million.
The Company implemented the provisions of ASC 740 related to uncertain tax positions, effective October 1, 2007. The impact of the adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements was not material and no cumulative effect adjustment was recorded to the October 1, 2007 balance of accumulated deficit.
Net Income (Loss) to Common Shareholders
The Company incurred net income (loss) to common shareholders of $0.6 million and $(0.1) million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $(3.3) million and $(1.2) million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Net income (loss) to common shareholders reflect preferred stock dividends and preferred stock deemed dividends of $0.1 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $1.8 million and $0.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. For the nine months ended June 30, 2010, preferred stock deemed dividends includes $1.7 million related to beneficial conversion associated with the issuance of Series G preferred stock. For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, preferred stock deemed dividends includes $0.5 million related to beneficial conversion associated with the issuance of Series F preferred stock.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2010, the Company held $15.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and had working capital, which is total current assets less total current liabilities, of $14.6 million. At September 30, 2009, there was $3.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, and working capital of $3.3 million. Working capital increased by $10.5 million due to proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt net of amounts paid for the acquisition of Turnpike, patent litigation settlement, and retirement of two secured credit facilities.

Table of Contents

Operating activities provided cash of $3.4 million and $2.3 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities increased compared to the same period in fiscal 2009 due to improved earnings and decreased inventory offset by the payment of the patent litigation settlement, acquisition related costs, an increase in accounts receivable, and a decrease in deferred revenue.
Cash used in investing activities was $11.5 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 as the result of the acquisition of Turnpike and planned fixed asset expenditures.
Cash provided by financing activities of $20.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2010 included $29.6 million of proceeds from the convertible debt net of fees offset by the pay off of the Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) line of credit of $0.5 million and the Partner’s for Growth II, L.P. (“PFG”) term loan of $8.0 million.
The Company believes our existing funds and vendor terms will provide adequate cash to fund operating needs for the foreseeable future. However, it may be necessary to obtain additional funding in order to execute our growth strategy.
Our Series B Preferred Stock prohibits payment of dividends to the holders of any other capital stock unless and until the Company has paid dividends accrued on the Series B Preferred Stock, which pays a cumulative dividend of 4% of the original issue price per annum (payable semi-annually) on each outstanding share of Series B Preferred Stock. At the option of the Series B Preferred Stock holders, such dividends are payable in additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock or cash. During the nine months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, 81,000 and 78,000 shares, respectively, of Series B Preferred Stock have been issued for payment of accrued dividends.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
On June 30, 2010, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Rule 13a-15(e)). In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s published guidance, the Company’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting excluded the December 4, 2009 acquisition of Turnpike, which represents approximately 10 percent and 8 percent of revenue for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
