Revenue Recognition
From time to time, a customer may return to us some or all of the software purchased. While our software and reseller agreements generally do not provide for a specific right of return, we may accept product returns in certain circumstances. To date, sales returns have been infrequent and not significant in relation to our total revenues. We make an estimate of our expected returns and provide an allowance for sales returns in accordance with SFAS No. 48, Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists. Management specifically analyzes our revenue transactions, customer software installation patterns, historical return patterns, current economic trends and customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for sales returns.

We experienced declines in revenues as a result of a decline in general global economic conditions and the fact that we operate in a very competitive industry. Financial comparisons discussed herein may not be indicative of future performance. We believe a significant challenge we face is to persuade prospective customers with limited budgets to purchase our products and services instead of investing in competing IT projects.
Software license revenues decreased 28% during the three months ended March 31, 2009, to $2.9 million, as compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decreases came from all regions due to decreased demand for our products and services.

Maintenance revenues decreased 13% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, to $3.9 million, as compared to $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
