and process automation software and solutions for the business
critical First Mile of customer interactions. These begin with an

Success in the First Mile can dramatically improve an
organization's customer experience and greatly reduce operating
costs, thus driving increased competitiveness, growth and
profitability. Kofax software and solutions provide a rapid return
on investment to more than 20,000 customers in financial services,

other markets. Kofax delivers these through its own sales and
service organization, and a global network of more than 800
authorized partners in more than 75 countries throughout the

Chief Executive Officer's Review
Financial Performance
During the second quarter and six months ended December 31,
2013, we continued to progressively realize the benefits expected
to result from the October 2012 reorganization of our sales force
to better focus its resources, improve its execution and
productivity, increase the number of mid-sized software license
transactions and reduce our reliance on large, seven figure
sales.
Non-IFRS software license revenues increased 30.0% to $32.6
million, and for the six months increased 23.9% to $58.5 million,
and non-IFRS total revenues increased 20.7% to $77.0 million, and
for the six months increased 16.6% to $144.5 million.
During these periods we closed an increasing number of mid-sized
software license transactions, as outlined below:
Quarter Six Months
FY13 FY14 FY13 FY14
Sales > $100,000 32 50 70 85
Sales > $1 million 2 2 3 4
The second quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013 once
again included two of the largest sales in the history of the
Company. One was for $7.6 million to a U.S. government agency
during the first quarter, and another for $3.7 million to a major
global insurance company based in the U.S. during the second
quarter.
We were very pleased with the "legacy capture" software license
revenue growth rate, and we continued to realize significantly
faster growth in the "mobile and new or acquired products" portion
of our business. Legacy capture software license revenue increased
17.7%, and mobile and new or acquired products increased 107.4%,
and for the six months 13.0% and 100.8%, respectively, on a
non-IFRS basis. Part of the mobile and new or acquired products
software license revenue growth was attributable to the
contributions of the Altosoft and Kapow acquisitions during
calendar year 2013, but it was nonetheless impressive without that
effect, and bookings in this part of our business were even
stronger.
During the second quarter we closed a $1.25 million smart
process application software license sale to a major global
financial services company based in Western Europe that we believe
will be delivered and recognized as revenue during the current
quarter ending March 31, 2014. This solution is being built on
Kofax Total Agility 7.0, so this sale is an early and very positive
indicator of this exciting new product's market potential.
In addition, during January 2014 we closed a $950K mobile
software license sale to one of the five largest U.S. based banks,
which included the recently announced Kofax Mobile Capture
Platform, and frameworks for Mobile Bill Pay and Mobile Check
Deposit apps.
While the increased number of mid-sized software license
transactions and both "legacy capture" and "mobile and new or
acquired products" software license revenue growth rates are
encouraging, we cannot guarantee that these metrics will
continually improve on a sequential quarter over quarter basis. We
therefore caution readers to consider and evaluate these metrics on
the basis of longer term trends rather than variations arising from
a single quarter's results.
As a result of this revenue growth and prudently managing our
operating expenses, non- IFRS adjusted EBITDA increased 29.1% to
$13.0 million or a 16.8% margin, and for the six months increased
30.3% to $21.3 million or a 14.7% margin.
We ended the second quarter with cash of $81.2 million and
reported adjusted cash generated from operations of $3.9 million
for the quarter and $23.7 million for the six months. In addition,
our existing, undrawn $40.0 million revolving line of credit
facility with Bank of America Merrill Lynch remains available and
has been extended to June 30, 2016.
During the second quarter we also implemented the corporate
structure changes to create a new parent corporation for Kofax,
which continues to maintain a premium listing on the London Stock
Exchange, and we listed on NASDAQ effective as of December 5, 2013
through the offering of 2.3 million new common shares. All Kofax
common shares now trade on and between both exchanges, and this has
to date resulted in a higher share price and increased trading
volumes and liquidity in our common shares. Following the NASDAQ
listing, we were pleased to see two full service securities
brokerage firms based in the U.S. initiate financial analyst
coverage on the Company. We expect additional U.S. firms to
initiate coverage during fiscal year 2014.
As a result of the foregoing, our balance sheet remains strong,
we have the resources needed to fund organic revenue growth while
executing our acquisition strategy and we have access to the
world's leading financial markets for technology companies.
Changes in currency exchange rates did not have a material
effect on our financial performance during the second quarter and
six months ended December 31, 2013.
All of the foregoing was in line with our expectations for the
second quarter and six months ended December 31, 2013. In light of
these results and financial position, we remain confident in our
business and optimistic about our future.
Operating Highlights
Our investments in research and development allowed us to
successfully launch a number of new software products and solutions
during the second quarter, including:
-- Kofax TotalAgilitytm 7.0, which the Company believes is the first
unified platform for the development and deployment of smart
process
applications and has been well received to date
-- Kofax AP Automation, which can be used with any accounting or ERP
system and offers "out-of-the-box" integration with Microsoft
Dynamics
AX, Kofax Mailroom Automation and Kofax Customer Onboarding
solutions,
all built on the Kofax TotalAgility 7.0 platform
-- An update to Kofax Medical Claims Add-on Pack to support Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) regulations related to the
Affordable Care
Act taking effect in January 2014
-- Kapow Enterprise 9.3, which features a redesigned interface to
simplify the user experience and encompass the entire
information
supply chain from data acquisition to enrichment,
persistence,
exploration and distribution
These investments also resulted in the issuance of an extension
to Kofax's patent number 8,345,981 from the United States Patent
and Trademark Office. This covers reverse matching technology to
determine the validity of data extracted from documents captured
using a mobile device and correcting erroneous or suspicious data,
thus ensuring its accuracy.
During the second quarter we were also pleased to continue
receiving widespread recognition for our software products and
solutions, including:
-- DM Magazine recognized Kofax TotalAgility as a Product of the Year in
its 2013 Document Manager Awards
-- Mortgage banking executives selected Kofax Mobile Capturetm for
Mortgage Banking Magazine's 2013 "Harnessing Mobile Award"
-- Attendees at FinovateAsia 2013 in Singapore voted Kofax Mobile Capture
Best of Show
-- Database Trends and Applications Magazine named Kapow Enterprise 9.3
as a Trendsetting Product of 2014
-- The Analyst One web site included Kapow's platform on its list of 24
breakthrough technologies every analyst should be aware of
Finally, we welcomed Grant Johnson as our new Chief Marketing
Officer, who brings extensive and very relevant global senior
management and enterprise software marketing experience to
Kofax.
Guidance
We're pleased with our performance during the second quarter and
first half of this fiscal year, which was in line with our
expectations for those periods as well as our previous revenue
growth guidance for fiscal year 2014. We continue to invest in
strengthening and growing our sales organization and expanding our
research and development efforts in order to drive faster software
license revenue growth in the future. We also continue to realize
improved sales execution across all geographies and product lines,
including our legacy capture as well as mobile and new or acquired
product offerings in the faster growing segments of our target
markets, and the introduction of additional new product and
solution offerings. We're therefore sufficiently confident in our
outlook to reaffirm our previous revenue growth guidance and now
provide adjusted EBITDA margin guidance for fiscal year 2014 on a
constant currency basis as follows:
IFRS Non-IFRS
Software License Low Double Digits Mid to High Teens
Revenue Growth
Total Revenues Growth Mid to High Single Digits Low Double Digits
Adjusted EBITDA Margin 12.5 - 13.5% 14.5 - 15.5%
Non-IFRS guidance does not reflect the write off of
substantially all of the deferred revenues of acquired companies as
of their acquisition dates as a result of IFRS purchase accounting
guidelines.
Thank You
Our performance is the direct result of the dedication and hard
work of our valued employees, indirect channel partners and
suppliers, and the continued support of our customers and
shareholders. I would like to once again use this opportunity to
sincerely thank all of these stakeholders for their on-going
contributions to our success.
Reynolds C. BishChief Executive OfficerFebruary 4, 2014
Chief Financial Officer's Review
The first half of fiscal year 2014 continued the trends which
began to emerge in the second half of the fiscal year 2013. For
both the three months and six months ended December 31, 2013, we
generated growth in every revenue line item and every geography. We
expanded our sales organization, particularly the number of quota
carrying sales reps, as well as invested in our product development
organization both, of which position us for continued growth. We
significantly enhanced our product set with the acquisition of
Kapow in July and the introduction of Kofax Total AgilityTM 7.0 in
October. Finally, we strengthened our balance sheet with the
extension of our $40.0 million revolving line of credit, and
increased the liquidity in our shares and enhanced shareholder
value when we completed our NASDAQ listing on December 5, 2013. On
December 5, 2013, Kofax (U.K.) became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Kofax (Bermuda). Kofax (Bermuda) was incorporated solely for this
purpose. The scheme of arrangement will have no effect on the
manner in which our business is conducted and the results continue
to present the results of the Group applying the appropriate
accounting principles.
There are a couple of items I want to note before continuing
with my review. First, we are and in the future will be providing
three month and year-to-date financial information and statements.
Second, with the exception of the section titled "Discussion of
Non-IFRS Measures", the Chief Financial Officer's refers to IFRS
financial measures.

Total revenues $ 139,460 $ 123,839 12.6 % 100.0 % 100.0 %
Software license revenues increased $5.4 million, or 21.4%, in
the three months ended December 31, 2013, due to a $3.8 million
increase in our legacy capture products and a $1.6 million increase
in mobile and new or acquired products. Software license revenues
increased $3.1 million in Americas, $1.4 million in EMEA, and $0.9
million in Asia Pacific.
Software license revenues increased $7.7 million, or 16.3%, in
the six months ended December 31, 2013, due to a $5.5 million
increase in our legacy capture products and a $2.4 million increase
in our mobile and new or acquired products. Software license
revenues increased $4.9 million in Americas, $2.1 million in EMEA,
and $0.7 million in Asia Pacific.
Maintenance services revenue increased $2.7 million, or 8.7%, in
the three months ended December 31, 2013 due to an increase of $1.3
million or 8.4% in the Americas and $1.5 million or 11.6% in EMEA
offset by a decrease of $0.1 million or 6.7% in Asia Pacific. In
the six months ended December 31, 2013, maintenance services
revenue increased $4.9 million, or 8.1%, due to an increase of a
$2.5 million or 8.2% in the America and $2.8 million or 10.8% in
EMEA offset by a decrease of $0.4 million or 9.3% in Asia Pacific.
The increase in maintenance services revenue is primarily due to
continued high maintenance contract renewal rates and the expansion
of our installed base from prior quarter software license sales and
to a lesser extent, maintenance revenues from our acquisition of
Kapow and Altosoft.
Professional services revenue increased $2.3 million, or 29.1%,
in the three months ended December 31, 2013 due to an increase of
$2.4 million or 64.8% in the Americas offset by a decrease of $0.1
million in EMEA and Asia Pacific or a 1.1% and 11.5% decrease,
respectively. In the six months ended December 31, 2013,
professional services revenue increased $3.0 million, or 18.9%, due
to an increase of $4.4 million or 60.5% in the Americas offset by a
decrease of $1.1 million or 15.0% in EMEA and $0.3 million or 14.5%
in Asia Pacific. The increase in professional services revenue is
primarily due to incremental professional services arrangements
from our acquisition of Kapow as well as several large capture
projects in the Americas.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of Software Licenses
Cost of software licenses primarily consists of royalties to
third-party software developers as well as personnel costs related
to the distribution of our software licenses and associated costs
such as facilities and related overhead charges.
The following table reflects cost of software license revenues,
in dollars and as a percentage of software license revenues:
Three Months EndedDecember 31, Change Six Months EndedDecember 31, Change
2013 2012 $ % 2013 2012 $ %
(in thousands, except percentages)
Cost of software $ 3,029 $ 2,295 $ 734 32.0% $ 5,685 $ 4,726 $ 959 20.3%
license
% of software 10.0% 9.2% 10.4% 10.0%
license
revenues
Cost of software licenses increased by $0.7 million, or 32.0%,
in the three months ended December 31, 2013 and $1.0 million, or
20.3%, in the six months ended December 31, 2013 which is generally
the result of increases in software license revenues as well as a
shift to more royalty bearing products. Royalty costs vary by
product, as applicable, and accordingly, the cost of software
licenses as a percentage of the software license revenues can
fluctuate based on the mix of software licenses sold.
Cost of Maintenance Services
Cost of maintenance services primarily consists of personnel
costs for our staff who respond to customer inquiries as well as
associated costs such as facilities and related overhead charges.
The following table shows cost of maintenance services, in dollars

technical support organization to support a larger installed base
as well as to support Altosoft and Kapow customers. Cost of
maintenance services increased $1.1 million, or 12.8%, in the six
months ended December 31, 2013 as we increased our technical
support organization to support a larger installed base as well as
to support Altosoft and Kapow customers.
Cost of Professional Services
Cost of professional services primarily consists of personnel
costs for our staff of consultants and trainers, other associated
costs such as facilities and related overhead charges, travel
related expenses and the cost of contractors, whom we engage from
time to time to assist us in delivering professional services.
The following table shows cost of professional services, in

services revenue
Cost of professional services increased $1.0 million, or 14.1%,
in the three months ended December 31, 2013 primarily due to a $0.4
million increase in compensation costs largely associated with our
acquisitions of Altosoft and Kapow. Cost of professional services
increased $1.7 million, or 12.2%, in the six months ended December
31, 2013 due to a $0.5 million increase in compensation costs
largely for that same reason. Our gross margin on professional
services increased 10.6% and 5.1% in the three months and six
months ended December 31, 2013, respectively as we were able to
better utilize our professional services staff.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel
costs incurred in connection with the design, development, testing
and documentation of our software products and technology as well
as associated costs such as facilities and related overhead
charges. All research and development expenses are expensed as
incurred. The following table shows research and development

million increase in compensation costs largely associated with our
acquisitions of Altosoft and Kapow as well as increased headcount
to support or mobile and new or acquired products. Research and
development expenses increased $2.1 million, or 12.6%, in the six
months ended December 31, 2013 due to a $1.9 million increase in
compensation costs largely for those same reasons
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel
costs related to our sales and marketing staff, costs for trade
shows, advertising and other lead generating activities, as well as
associated costs such as facilities and related overhead
charges.
The following table shows sales and marketing expense, in
dollars and as a percentage of total revenues:

Sales and marketing expenses increased $6.8 million, or 28.6%,
in the three months ended December 31, 2013 due to a $4.4 million
increase in compensation costs largely associated with our
acquisitions of Altosoft and Kapow and consistent with our plan to
increase investment in the sales organization. Sales and marketing
expenses increased $10.3 million, or 21.4%, in the six months ended
December 31, 2013 due to a $6.1 million increase in compensation
costs largely for those same reasons.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of
personnel costs for our executive, finance, human resource and
legal functions, as well as associated costs such as facilities and
related overhead charges. Also included in general and
administrative expenses are costs associated with legal,
accounting, tax and advisory fees.
The following table shows general and administrative expense, in

General and administrative expenses decreased $0.2 million, or
2.1%, in the three months ended December 31, 2013 primarily due to
a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense as well as
reduced share-based payment expense. General and administrative
expenses decreased $0.4 million, or 1.8%, in the six months ended
December 31, 2013 primarily due to those same reasons.
Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets - We record
amortization expense relating to our acquired intangible assets
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of
the respective asset. Our intangible assets include acquired
contractual and customer relationships, technology and trade names,
each based on their fair values ascribed in accounting for the
initial business acquisition. The following table shows expense
related to the amortization of acquired intangible assets, in
dollars and as a percentage of total revenues:

Amortization of acquired intangible assets increased $0.7
million, or 44.5%, to $2.3 million in the three months ended
December 31, 2013, due to additional amortization of acquired
intangible assets arising from our acquisitions of Altosoft and
Kapow. Amortization of acquired intangible assets increased $1.3
million, or 41.5%, to $4.6 million in the six months ended December
31, 2013, due to that same reason.
Acquisition-related Costs - Acquisition-related costs include
those costs related to acquisitions and consist of (i) costs
directly attributable to our acquisition strategy and the
evaluation, consummation and integration of our acquisitions and
(ii) transition compensation costs.
The following table shows Acquisition-related costs, in dollars
and as a percentage of total revenues:

Acquisition-related costs decreased $3.7 million, or 246.7%, to
a $2.2 million credit in the three months ended December 31, 2013
due to a decrease in the fair value of contingent consideration
related to the Singularity and Altosoft acquisitions as well as
other acquisition costs of $0.4 million related to the acquisition
of Kapow.
Acquisition-related costs decreased $3.0 million, or 103.6%, to
a $0.1 million credit in the six months ended December 31, 2013 due
to a $2.5 million decrease in the fair value of contingent
consideration related to the Singularity and Altosoft acquisitions
as well as direct acquisition costs of $0.7 million related to the
acquisition of Kapow.
Other Operating Expense, net - Other operating expenses, net
consists of all income or expense that is not directly attributable
to one of our other operating revenue or expense lines. The
following table shows other operating expenses, net, in dollars and

increased $1.4 million, or 74.0% to $3.2 million in the six months
ended December 31, 2013 as a result of the costs associated with
the NASDAQ listing.
Finance Income (Expense), net - Finance income (expense), net
consists primarily of foreign exchange gains or losses related to
our intercompany receivables and payables, to fair value
adjustments relating to forward contracts or other financial
instruments and to a lesser extent to interest income (expense).
The following table shows finance income (expense), net, in dollars
and as a percentage of total revenues:

Finance income (expense) net, fluctuated $2.1 million in the
three months ended December 31, 2013 and $5.9 million in the six
months ended December 31, 2013 representing a swing from loss to
income primarily due to unrealized foreign exchange gains related
to revaluing non-functional currency denominated intercompany
positions.
Income tax expense - The following table shows income tax
expense, in dollars and as a percentage of profit from continuing
operations:

Effective tax rate 53.1% 76.9% 40.5% 117.8%
Income tax expense increased by $1.0 million, or 60.3%, to $2.7
million during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and
increased by $0.8 million, or 33.5%, to $3.3 million during the six
months ended December 31, 2013. Increased income tax expense was
the result of greater income from continuing operations for the
three and six months ended December 31, 2013 as compared to the
three and six months ended December 31, 2012. Effective tax rates
decreased, due to the relatively disproportionate effect of
significant expenses during the three and six months ended December
31, 2012 that are not deductible for tax purposes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, we have financed our business primarily through
our cash on hand as well as cash flows from operations. We had
$81.2 million of cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2013,
compared to $93.4 million at June 30, 2013. The majority of our
cash is held in U.S. dollars, Euros and to a lesser extent, British
Pounds. We had no outstanding debt as of June 30, 2013. On October
14, 2013, the Company extended 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, can be made in the US and certain
other countries and can be increased by an additional $10.0
million. The credit facility is available for general corporate
purposes, including acquisitions. As of December 31, 2013, we had
$39.5 million available under this revolving credit facility, as
$0.5 million is used to guarantee letters of credit in certain
operating facilities and payroll services.
The following tables set forth the summary of our cash

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $0.2 million in the
three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to cash generated
from operating activities of $0.6 million in the three months ended
December 31, 2012, a net decrease of $0.8 million. That decrease
was primarily attributable to a $0.7 million increase in cash paid
for taxes in the quarter.
Net cash generated from operating activities was $18.2 million
in the six months ended December 31, 2013, compared to $9.2 million
in the six months ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $9.0
million. That increase was primarily attributable to a $12.5
million increase in deferred revenue offset by a $3.7 million
decrease in provisions and other assets.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $2.0 million in the
three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to $3.1 million in
the three months ended December 31, 2012, a decreased use of cash
of $1.0 million. The primary use of cash in the current period was
a $0.8 million in payment associated with our acquisition of
Atalasoft and $0.5 million in purchases of fixed assets.
Net cash used in investing activities was $43.2 million in the
six months ended December 31, 2013, compared to $5.0 million in the
six months ended December 31, 2012, an increased use of $38.2
million. The primary use of cash in the current period was a $40.3
million payment associated with our acquisition of Kapow, $0.7
million deferred consideration payment for the Altosoft
acquisition, and $1.1 million earnout payment for the Atalasoft
acquisition. Additionally, we purchased $2.0 million of fixed
assets.
Financing Activities
Net cash generated from financing activities was $11.6 million
in the three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to net cash
used of $0.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2012 an
increase of $12.5 million due primarily to $12.4 in net proceeds
from our NASDAQ listing.
Net cash generated from financing activities was $11.8 million
in the six months ended December 31, 2013, compared to $0.6 million
in the six months ended December 31, 2012 an increase of $11.2
million due primarily to $12.4 million in net proceeds from NASDAQ
listing offset by decreases of $0.6 million from net purchases of
employee benefit shares and proceeds from option exercises,
issuance of share capital and interest paid.
Exchange Rate Effects
We operate in many countries around the world, and maintain cash
balances in locations in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. In
the three months ended December 31, 2013 cash and cash equivalents
decreased by $0.2 million due to changes in foreign exchange rate,
while during the three months ended December 31, 2012 our cash and
cash equivalents increased by $0.1 million. During the six months
ended December 31, 2013 cash and cash equivalents increased by $1.0
million due to changes in foreign exchange rates, while during the
six months ended December 31, 2012 our cash and cash equivalents
increased by $1.2 million due to changes in foreign exchange rates,
as we maintained more cash on hand in U.S. dollars this period. Our
cash and cash equivalents will continue to fluctuate in the future,
as foreign currency exchange rates vary over time.
Treasury Management
On October 14, 2013, the Company extended the term of its $40.0
million revolving line of credit with Bank of America Merrill Lynch
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. As of December 31, 2013 $39.5 million was available as
$0.5 million has been used to guarantee letters of credit in
certain operating facilities and payroll services.
The Company has significant overseas subsidiaries, which operate
principally in their local currencies. Where appropriate, intra
group borrowings are arranged in functional currencies of the
borrower to centralize the foreign exchange impact and provide a
natural hedge against exchange rate movement risks.
The Company hedges certain foreign currency cash and cash flows
relating to transactions in accordance with policies set by the
Board of Directors. Assessment of the credit risk profile of the
Company's key customers and resellers is centralized for increased
focus.
Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures
Management uses financial measures, both IFRS and non-IFRS, in
analyzing and assessing the overall performance of the business and
for making operational decisions. We have provided and believe that
the non-IFRS financial measures and supplemental reconciliation to
IFRS financial measures are useful to investors and other users of
our financial statements because the non-IFRS financial measures
may be used as additional tools to compare business performance
across peer companies, periods and financial markets.
While we use non-IFRS measures as a tool to enhance our
understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance, we
do not believe that these non-IFRS measures are a substitute for,
or are superior to, the information provided by IFRS results. As
such, the presentation of non-IFRS measures is not intended to be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared
in accordance with IFRS. The primary limitations associated with
the use of non-IFRS measures as compared to IFRS results are that
non-IFRS measures may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures used by other companies in our industry and that non-IFRS
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-IFRS measures and IFRS results, including providing a
reconciliation of each non-IFRS measure to IFRS results, in order
to enable investors to perform their own analysis of our operating
results.
Non-IFRS Revenues - We define Non-IFRS revenue as revenue, as
reported under IFRS, increased to include revenue that is
associated with our historic acquisitions that has been excluded
from reported results for a given period due to the effects of
purchase accounting. In accordance with IFRS purchase accounting,
an acquired company's deferred revenue at the date of acquisition
is subject to a fair value adjustment which reduces the deferred
amount and revenues recognized subsequent to an acquisition. We
include Non-IFRS 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 any future
acquisitions. The tables below provide a reconciliation of IFRS
revenues to Non-IFRS revenues related to all of our historic
acquisitions:

Non-IFRS Income from Operations - We define Non-IFRS income from
operations as income from operations, as reported under IFRS,
excluding the effect of acquisition fair value adjustment to
revenue, share-based payment expense, depreciation expense,
amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related
costs, restructuring costs and other operating expense, net.
Share-based payment expense, depreciation expense and amortization
of acquired intangible assets in our Non-IFRS 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
organic continuing operations of the acquired businesses and are
generally not relevant to assessing or estimating the long-term
performance of the acquired assets. Restructuring costs are not
considered in assessing our performance as we have not generally
incurred such costs for our continuing operations. Other operating
expense, net represents items that are not necessarily related to
our recurring operations and which therefore are not, under IFRS,
included in other expense lines. Accordingly, we exclude those
amounts when assessing Non-IFRS income from operations. At times
when we are communicating with our shareholders, analysts and other
parties we refer to Non-IFRS income from operations as adjusted
EBITDA.
We assess Non-IFRS income from operations as a percentage of
total Non-IFRS revenues 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-IFRS 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.
The following table provides a reconciliation of IFRS income
from operations to Non-IFRS income from operations and presents
Non-IFRS income from operations as a percentage of total
revenues.

Adjusted Cash Flows from Operations - We define Adjusted cash
flows from operations as net cash inflows from operating
activities, as reported under IFRS, adjusted for income taxes paid
or refunded and payments under restructurings. Income taxes paid is
included in this reconciliation as the timing of cash payments and
receipts can vary significantly from year-to-year based on a number
of factors, including the influence of acquisitions on our
consolidated tax attributes. Payments for restructurings relate to
a specific activity that is not part of ongoing operations. The
table below provides a reconciliation of IFRS cash flows from
operations to Adjusted cash flows from operations:

result of increased tax and restructuring payments combined with
decreases in cash flow from operations.
Adjusted cash flow from operations increased $8.8 million to
$23.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 as a
result of increased cash flows from operations and tax payments
combined with a decrease in payments under restructuring.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share - We define Adjusted diluted
earnings per share as diluted earnings per share, as reported under
IFRS, adjusted by certain items that are also excluded from our
Non-IFRS income from operations and which are discussed above. The
most comparable IFRS metrics, 'income (loss) from continuing
operations, after tax' and 'earnings per share - diluted', also
include the reconciling items finance income (expense), net, and
the impacts of income taxes on each of the other reconciling items.
Therefore, we include this non-IFRS measure in order to provide a
more complete comparison of our earnings per share from one period
to another.
The tables below provide a reconciliation of our Adjusted
diluted earnings per share, and our associated Non-IFRS income
(loss) from continuing operations, after tax:

Going Concern
Our financial statements have been prepared on the basis that
the Company is a going concern. In connection with this
presentation, the Board has reviewed the Company's forecasts and
budgets, borrowing facilities, plans and various other analyses to
determine the level of uncertainties in the business. The use of
the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate because there
are no material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that
may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Company were
disclosed on pages 12 and 13 of Kofax plc's 2013 Annual Report,
which presents the results of the Company prior to the structural
change, in which Kofax plc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Kofax Limited. Kofax Limited was incorporated solely for this
purpose. This change will not have any effect on the manner in
which our business is conducted.

NOTE 1ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 Basis of presentation
The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial
Statements for the six months ended December 31, 2013 have been
prepared in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting"
and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Services
Authority.
On December 5, 2013, the Group effected an initial public
offering of 2,300,000 shares of common stock at a price to the
public of $5.85 per share. The shares began trading on the NASDAQ
Global Select Market on that exchange under the ticker symbol
"KFX." All of the shares of common stock being offered were by
Kofax; there were no selling Kofax shareholders. Additionally, the
Group established Kofax Limited as the parent company through a
scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the U.K. Companies Act of
2006. As part of the scheme, the Group established a new par value
of $0.001 per share replacing the 2.5 pence per under Kofax plc.
The reorganization of the Group has been accounted for in
accordance with the principles of merger accounting as applicable
to group reorganizations. The consolidated financial statements are
therefore presented as if Kofax Limited had been the parent company
of the Group throughout the periods presented. Share capital and
share premium mounts in the comparative periods have been
retroactively adjusted to reflect such establishment.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements do not
include all information and disclosures as required in the
Consolidated Annual Financial Statements, and should be read in
conjunction with the Group's Consolidated Annual Financial
Statements of Kofax plc for the year ended June 30, 2013 and
prospectus dated November 28, 2013.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements were
approved by the Board of Directors on February 3, 2014.
1.2 Summary of significant accounting policies
The accounting policies adopted in preparation of the Condensed
Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those
followed in preparation of the Consolidated Annual Financial
Statements for the year ended June 30, 2013.
The adoption of the standards/ interpretations that have become
effective for the current fiscal year have already been outlined in
detail in the Consolidated Annual Financial Statements for the year
ended June 30, 2013 and were not considered to have a significant
impact on these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial
Statements.
1.3 Seasonality of operations
Many contracts, particularly those sold through the direct sales
force, are finalized in the latter portions of any given quarter.
Additionally, Group revenue may vary from quarter to quarter,
depending on the timing and size of license revenue, which may
contain individually large contracts in any given period. The first
and third fiscal quarters have historically been seasonally weaker
than the second and fourth quarters. This information is provided
to allow for a proper appreciation of the results, however
management have concluded that this does not constitute "highly
seasonal" as considered by IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
NOTE 2BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Acquisition of Kapow
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. The acquisition will be accounted for using the
acquisition method.
The consolidated financial statements include the results of
Kapow during the five month period from the acquisition date. The
provisional fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities
of Kapow, at the acquisition date, are as follows:

Analysis of cash flows on acquisition:
($ in thousands)
Cash outflow at time of closing 40,524
Less: cash acquired 1,276
Total cash consideration 39,248
The provisional goodwill of $25.5 million includes the value of
acquired technologies, and expected synergies arising from the
acquisition and the workforce, which is not separately
recognizable. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for
tax purposes.
From the date of acquisition, Kapow has contributed $2.5 million
of revenues and $4.0 million of net loss to the Group. If the
combination had taken place at the beginning of the fiscal year,
revenues from Kapow's operations would have been approximately $3.5
million higher and the net income would have decreased by
approximately $5.0 million and would have made the Group's total
revenues $140.4 million and net income $3.8 million.
NOTE 3OPERATING SEGMENTS
The Group operates one business segment, the software business.
All products and services are considered one solution to customers
and are operated and analyzed under one income statement provided
to and evaluated by the chief operating decision maker (CODM). The
CODM manages the business based on the key measures for resource
allocation, based on a single set of financial data that
encompasses the Group's entire operations for purposes of making
operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The
Group's CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.
There are no reportable assets that meet the criteria under IFRS
8 to be reported under the single operating segment.

The effective tax rate (income tax expense as a percentage of
income from continuing operations) can be influenced by the
disproportionate effect of significant expenses that are not
deductible for tax purposes, together with non-recognition of
certain tax losses, and certain income items that do not attract a
tax charge.

Contingent consideration relates to deferred consideration,
contingent consideration, and employee retention payments
associated with acquisitions in prior periods and in the six months
ended December 31, 2013. On July 25, 2013, the Altosoft share
purchase agreement was amended to allow for achievement of earnings
targets based on cumulative results in the first two years of the
assessment. Management assessed a number of scenarios and based on
those scenarios, estimated for financial accounting purposes, that
$3.7 million of the contingent consideration will be paid to former
shareholders.
In relation to the acquisition of Kapow, an additional $6.6
million of deferred consideration is included in provisions, of
which $1.9 million is expected to be paid during the third quarter
of 2013, with an additional $2.2 million to be paid one year from
closing and $2.5 million to be paid two years from closing, with
said amounts being subject to certain indemnification terms and
conditions.
Additionally, the threshold for the contingent consideration and
related retention bonuses related to the acquisition of Singularity
was not achieved in the second measurement period. Accordingly
provisions totaling $3.6 million have been reversed against the
income statement.

NOTE 10CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
There are no material pending or threatened lawsuits against the
Group except for one filed November 29, 2012 in which the Group was
named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed by Scan EMEA Holding GmbH
in Zurich, Switzerland, alleging that the Group breached its
contract with Scan EMEA Holding GmbH in connection with the January
2011 agreement to sell the Group's hardware business. As of
December 31, 2013, the Group assessed the merits of the lawsuit,
believe it would not have a material adverse effect on its
business, results of operations or financial condition and has
vigorously litigated this matter and taken other actions available
to it to mitigate any potential loss. Concurrent with filing the
lawsuit Scan EMEA withheld EUR1.5 million of the final EUR2.0
million payment associated with their purchase of the Group's
hardware business.
In January 2014, Scan EMEA Holding GmbH was acquired by Spigraph
International SA a pan-European value-added reseller of scanners
and capture and image processing software. In conjunction with that
transaction, the Group entered into a settlement agreement that
resulted in Scan EMEA Holding GmbH waiving the claim.
