ZIX CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Zix Corporation (“ZixCorp,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us”) should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These financial statements are unaudited, but have been prepared in the ordinary course of business for the purpose of providing information with respect to the interim periods covered thereby. Management of the Company believes that all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such periods have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future interim periods or for the full fiscal year.
2. Recent Accounting Standards and Pronouncements
Revenue Recognition
     In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance on revenue recognition that became effective January 1, 2011. Under the new guidance tangible products that have software components that are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance; such software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue recognition guidance. Additionally, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when Vendor Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition. This new guidance did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
3. Discontinued Operations
     On December 31, 2010, we discontinued our e-Prescribing business. For information relating to discontinued operations, see the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
4. Stock Options and Stock-based Employee Compensation
     As of June 30, 2011, there were 6,827,165 options outstanding and 1,433,834 available for grant. Of the options available for grant, 1,187,310 options were available for grant to employees and 246,524 were available for grant to the Company’s directors. For the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2011, the total stock-based employee compensation expense was recorded to the following line items of the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations:

The excess tax benefit recorded in the six month periods ended June 30, 2011, related to the 635,591 option exercises was $103,000. A deferred tax asset totaling $63,000 and $263,000, resulting from stock-based compensation expense relating to the Company’s U.S. operations, was recorded for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As of June 30, 2011, there was

Receivables, net
  $ 1,084,000     $ 1,344,000  
 
           
     The allowance for doubtful accounts includes all specific accounts receivable which we believe are likely not collectible based on known information. In addition, we record 2.5% of all accounts receivable greater than 90 days past due, net of those accounts specifically reserved, as a general allowance against accounts that could potentially become uncollectible.
     The note receivable represents the remaining outstanding balance of an original note related to the sale of a product line in 2005 in the amount of $540,000. The note receivable is fully reserved at June 30, 2011.
7. Earnings Per Share and Potential Dilution
     Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The dilutive effect of common shares potentially outstanding is included in diluted earnings per share. The computations for basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, are as follows:

     During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011, weighted average shares of 4,479,858 and 4,096,786 respectively, related to stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the option exercise prices exceeded the market price of ZixCorp’s common stock on that date, and the options were therefore anti-dilutive. During each of those periods, 145,853 of shares related to anti-dilutive warrants were excluded from that calculation. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, weighted average shares of 7,419,427 and 7,404,603 respectively, related to anti-dilutive stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. During those same periods, 3,664,902 and 4,123,236, respectively, of shares related to anti-dilutive warrants were excluded from that calculation.
8. Commitments and contingencies
     A summary of our fixed contractual obligations and commitments at June 30, 2011, is as follows:

     We have not entered into any material, non-cancelable purchase commitments at June 30, 2011.
Claims and Proceedings
     We are, from time to time, involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe the outcome of these legal proceedings either individually or taken as a whole, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, we cannot predict with certainty any eventual loss or range of possible loss related to such matters.
9. Fair Value Measurements
     FASB guidance regarding fair value measurement establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
     For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, commercial paper, trade receivables, and accounts payable, the fair values approximate carrying values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying values of other current assets and accrued expenses are also not recorded at fair value, but approximate fair values primarily due to their short-term nature.
10. Commercial Paper
     The investment in commercial paper is classified as a held-to-maturity debt security as the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold this investment until maturity. This short term investment was purchased on February 18, 2011, and matures on October 25, 2011. At maturity, the commercial paper will pay interest of approximately $10,000. The carrying value of this security approximates fair market value due to the short-term maturity of the investment.

11. Common Stock Repurchase Program
     On March 7, 2011, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program that authorized the Company to purchase up to $15,000,000 of its shares of common stock from time to time in the open market. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company repurchased 2,917,300 shares at an aggregate cost of $9,900,000. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company repurchased 1,368,300 shares at an aggregate cost of $5,000,000. We completed the share repurchase program during the first week of July 2011 when the remaining repurchased shares valued at approximately $100,000 were transferred to the Company.
12. Income Taxes
     At the end of 2010, the Company recorded a $35,300,000 tax benefit by reducing the valuation allowance related to its deferred tax assets. This reduction was determined through an assessment of future deferred tax asset utilization following accounting guidance which relies largely on historical earnings. Using the same methodology, and updating the future taxable earnings estimates based on first six months 2011 actual earnings, the Company believes its future taxable earnings estimate to be established at the end of 2011 will exceed the estimate used at the end of 2010. For this reason, the Company offset its first and second quarter 2011 deferred tax provision by reducing its valuation allowance by an equal amount; thereby eliminating any deferred tax provision from the Company’s first and second quarter 2011 financial statements. The Company expects to follow this same methodology in the third quarter of 2011 and will reevaluate the need for its valuation allowance at December 31, 2011, following the same assessment that was performed at December 31, 2010.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
     The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those that are both most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results and require management’s most subjective judgments.
     We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. We discuss our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Results of Operations
Second Quarter 2011 Summary of Operations

Revenues
     Email Encryption is a subscription-based service. The following table sets forth a period-over-period comparison of the Company’s revenues:
                                                                 
                    3-month Variance                     6-month Variance  
    Three Months Ended June 30,     2011 vs. 2010     Six Months Ended June 30,     2011 vs. 2010  
    2011     2010     $     %     2011     2010     $     %  
Email Encryption revenues
  $ 9,431,000     $ 8,194,000     $ 1,237,000       15 %   $ 18,702,000     $ 15,673,000     $ 3,029,000       19 %
     The increase in Email Encryption revenue was due to the growth inherent in a successful subscription model with steady additions to the subscriber base coupled with a high rate of existing customer renewals.
Revenue Indicators — Backlog and Orders
     Backlog — Our end-user order backlog is comprised of contractually bound agreements that we expect to amortize into revenue as the services are performed. The timing of revenue is affected by both the length of time required to deploy a service and the length of the service contract.

11


Table of Contents

     As of June 30, 2011, total backlog was $52,584,000 and we expect approximately 57% of the total backlog to be recognized as revenue during the next twelve months. The backlog as of June 30, 2011, was comprised of the following elements: $17,054,000 of deferred revenue that has been billed and paid, $5,792,000 billed but unpaid, and approximately $29,738,000 of unbilled contracts.
     Email Encryption Orders — Total orders for Email Encryption were $12,517,000 and $9,598,000 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total orders include contract renewals, NFYOs, and in the case of new multi-year contracts, the years beyond the first year of service. NFYOs were $2,039,000 and $2,108,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Cost of Revenues
     The following table sets forth a period-over-period comparison of the cost of revenues:
                                                                 
                    3-month Variance                     6-month Variance

Email Encryption
  $ 1,756,000     $ 1,570,000     $ 186,000       12 %   $ 3,573,000     $ 3,072,000     $ 501,000       16 %
     Cost of revenues is comprised of costs related to operating and maintaining the ZixData Center, a field deployment team, customer service and support and the amortization of Company-owned, customer-based computer appliances. A significant portion of the total cost of revenues relates to the ZixData Center, which currently has excess capacity. The primary contributor to the year over year increase in Cost of revenues was an increase in the allocation of fixed costs relating to the data center and various fixed occupancy charges including facilities and telecommunications and various shared costs. A portion of these fixed and shared costs had previously been absorbed by the Company’s e-Prescribing business that was discontinued at the end of 2010. The Company’s remaining product line, Email Encryption, began absorbing higher allocated costs during 2010 as we were winding down the Company’s e-Prescribing business. The increase in cost of revenues in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter last year, resulted primarily from higher allocated costs. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the allocated costs absorbed by Email Encryption increased approximately $450,000 compared to the first half of 2010. The remaining year over year increase of approximately $50,000 resulted primarily from increases in salaries and benefits.
Research and Development Expenses
     The following table sets forth a period-over-period comparison of our research and development expenses:
                                                                 
                    3-month Variance                     6-month Variance

     Research and development expenses consist primarily of salary, benefits, and stock-based compensation for our development staff, and other non-people costs associated with enhancing our existing products and services and developing new products and services. For the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2011, research and development expenses increased slightly due to increases in wages and benefit costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
     The following table sets forth a period-over-period comparison of our selling, general and administrative expenses:

Table of Contents

     Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salary, stock-based compensation and benefit costs for marketing, sales, executive and administrative personnel as well as costs associated with advertising, promotions, professional services and general corporate activities. The $192,000 decrease in expense during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period last year primarily resulted from decreases in bonus and commissions, stock based compensation, and salaries and severance expenses totaling approximately $650,000, which was partially offset by increases in professional fees, recruitment, advertising and investor relations totaling approximately $350,000. The remaining decrease of $108,000 was spread over a wide range of other selling, general and administrative activities.
     The $660,000 decrease in expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the same period last year primarily resulted from decreases in bonus and commissions, stock based compensation, and salaries and severance expenses totaling approximately $1,500,000, which was partially offset by increases in professional fees, recruitment, advertising and investor relations totaling approximately $600,000. The remaining decrease of $240,000 was spread over a wide range of other selling, general and administrative activities.
Interest Expense
     Interest expense was $3,000 and $7,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. Interest expense was $5,000 and $12,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Interest expense consists of interest related to a license subscription promissory note payable.
Investment and Other Income
     Investment and other income was $22,000 and $68,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. Investment and other income was $20,000 and $56,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Other income consists of interest and other income items earned in the normal course of business.
Provision for Income Taxes
     The provision for income taxes was $(11,000) and $90,000 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $13,000 and $138,000 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The operating losses incurred by the Company’s U.S. operations in past years and the resulting net operating losses for U.S. Federal tax purposes are subject to a $71,683,000 reserve because of the uncertainty of future taxable income levels sufficient to utilize the net operating losses. Our 2011 provision of $13,000 consists of a benefit from refundable tax credits on our U.S. operations totaling $48,000, and taxes related to our Canadian operations totaling $35,000; and $26,000 in state taxes based on gross revenues. The 2010 provision consisted of $53,000 in taxes on our U.S. operations, $69,000 in taxes on our Canadian operations, and a small amount of state taxes based on gross revenues.
     There were no penalty-related charges to selling, general and administrative expenses accrued or recognized for the same comparative periods. Additionally, we have not taken a tax position that would have a material effect on the financial statements or the effective tax rate for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. We are currently subject to a three-year statute of limitations by major tax jurisdictions.
     The Company previously recorded a $327,000 tax contingency liability related to tax year 2004 for its Canada operation, and that amount and the specifics therein have remained unchanged except for currency translation adjustments. As of June 30, 2011, the gross amount of our unrecognized tax benefits, inclusive of the $327,000 tax liability and $50,000 in other uncertain positions in 2008, was approximately $472,000. Included in this balance are tax positions which, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate.
     At June 30, 2011, the Company partially reserved its U.S. net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of future taxable income sufficient to utilize net loss carryforwards prior to their expiration. The Company did not reserve a portion, $35,348,000, of its U.S. net deferred tax assets related to $48,000 in state tax credit carryforwards because such credits will be used to offset a revenue-based state franchise tax and are therefore not contingent on the Company’s reporting taxable income in a future period, and $35,300,000 in U.S. net operating losses (“NOLs”) because we believe the Company will generate sufficient taxable income in future years to utilize these NOLs prior to their expiration.
     At the end of 2010, the Company recorded a $35,300,000 tax benefit by reducing the valuation allowance related to its deferred tax assets. This reduction was determined through an assessment of future deferred tax asset utilization following accounting guidance

13

which relies largely on historical earnings. Using the same methodology, and updating the future taxable earnings estimates based on first and second quarter 2011 actual earnings, the Company believes its future taxable earnings estimate to be established at the end of 2011 will exceed the estimate used at the end of 2010. For this reason, the Company offset its first and second quarter 2011 deferred tax provision by reducing its valuation allowance by an equal amount, thereby eliminating any deferred tax provision from the Company’s first and second quarter 2011 financial statements. The Company expects to follow this same methodology in the third quarter of 2011 and will reevaluate the need for its valuation allowance at December 31, 2011 following the same assessment methodology that was performed at December 31, 2010. Adjusting our valuation allowance could have a significant impact on operating results in the period that it becomes more likely than not that an additional portion of our deferred tax assets will or will not be realized.
     We have determined that utilization of existing net operating losses against future taxable income is not subject to limitation by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. Future ownership changes, however, may limit the company’s ability to fully utilize its existing net operating loss carryforwards against future taxable income.
     As indicated earlier, the operating losses incurred by our U.S. operations and the resulting net operating losses for U.S. Federal tax purposes are subject to a partial reserve. Significant judgment is required in determining any reserve recorded against the deferred tax asset. In assessing the need for a reserve, we consider all available evidence, including past operating results, estimates of future taxable income, and the feasibility of tax planning strategies.
Net Income
     The net income for the quarter ending June 30, 2011, of $2,617,000 reflects the achievement of profitability for the sixth consecutive quarter, and is an improvement of $1,116,000 compared to the net income of $1,501,000 for the same period last year. The improvement in net income resulted from higher gross profit, due to increased revenue, combined with flat R&D and lower SG&A expenses, as discussed above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
     Based on our performance over the last four quarters and current expectations, we believe our cash, cash equivalents, commercial paper and cash generated from operations, will satisfy our working capital needs, capital expenditures, investment requirements, contractual obligations, commitments, future customer financings, and other liquidity requirements associated with our operations through at least the next twelve months. We plan for and measure our liquidity and capital resources through an annual budgeting process. At June 30, 2011, our cash, cash equivalents, and commercial paper totaled $17.1 million and our debt was $118,000. Our debt consists of a note related to a three-year subscription for Microsoft licenses that is paid on a monthly basis at approximately $12,000 per month.
     Revenue is expected to grow at approximately 15% to 20% for the full year 2011 compared to 2010. For the three month period ended June 30, 2011, we achieved our sixth consecutive quarter of profitability.
     Cash, cash equivalents and commercial paper at June 30, 2011, were $17,119,000, a decrease of $7,500,000 from the December 31, 2010, balance. This decrease was primarily driven by the repurchase of $14,912,000 of our common stock under a repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors in March 2011. We completed the share repurchase program during the first week of July 2011 when the remaining repurchased shares valued at approximately $100,000 were transferred to the Company. Our decrease in cash was partially offset by cash generated from the exercise of stock options, cash collections from customers, and relatively flat accounts payable and accrued expenses.
     We believe a significant portion of all other spending is discretionary and flexible and that we have the ability to adjust overall cash spending to react, as needed, to any shortfalls in projected cash.

Table of Contents

     Our primary source of liquidity from our operations is the collection of revenue in advance from our customers and accounts receivable from our customers, net of the timing of payments to our vendors and service providers.
     Related to our investing activities in the first six months of 2011, we utilized $2,290,000 to purchase commercial paper and $755,000 to purchase equipment, primarily computer and networking equipment. In first six months of 2010, equipment purchases were $663,000. These 2010 purchases were slightly offset by the $25,000 cash inflow from proceeds from the sales of maturing marketable securities.
     Cash used in financing activities in the first six months of 2011 included the $14,912,000 repurchase of common stock mentioned above and $68,000 to fund a small promissory note associated with computer operating system licenses. These usages were partially offset by $2,334,000 received from the exercise of stock options and warrants. In the first six months of 2010, the exercise of stock options resulted in $469,000 in cash, which was partially offset by $62,000 used to fund the above mentioned promissory note.
Options and Warrants of ZixCorp Common Stock
     We have significant warrants and options outstanding that are currently vested. There is no assurance that any of these options and warrants will be exercised; therefore, the extent of future cash from additional warrant and option exercises is not certain. The following table summarizes the warrants and options that were outstanding as of June 30, 2011. The vested shares are a subset of the outstanding shares. The value of the shares is the number of shares multiplied by the exercise price for each share.
