PART I
Item 1. Business
Company Overview
Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. is a leading provider of clinical software, connectivity and information solutions that physicians use to improve the quality of healthcare. Our business groups provide innovative solutions that inform physicians with just right, just in time information, connect physicians to each other and to the entire community of care, and transform healthcare, improving both the quality and efficiency of care. Our Clinical Solutions Group, the software and related services segment of our business, provides clinical software solutions, including electronic health record (“EHR”), electronic prescribing (“e-prescribing”) and document imaging solutions. Our Physicians Interactive Group, the information services segment of our business, provides clinical education and information solutions for physicians and patients, along with physician-patient connectivity solutions through our partnership with Medem, Inc. (“Medem”). Our Medication Services Group, the prepackaged medications segment of our business, provides prepackaged medication fulfillment solutions, which includes both medications and software for dispensing and inventory control.
On March 2, 2006, we acquired A4 Health Systems, Inc. (“A4”), a privately held company and a provider of clinical and practice management solutions to physician practice groups and hospital emergency departments. The A4 acquisition allows us to reach new markets: small and mid-sized physician practice groups seeking either a practice management system or a combined EHR and practice management solution, and hospitals seeking emergency department information systems (“EDIS”) or care management solutions. The A4 acquisition enables us to extend our product offerings by allowing us to independently offer an integrated solution that combines our EHR solution with A4’s practice management system, which we intend to market to customers outside of the IDX Systems Corporation (“IDX”) customer base (see  Strategic Alliances ). We believe that A4’s EDIS and care management solutions offer a natural connection to our ambulatory applications, facilitating the continuity of care between the acute and ambulatory healthcare settings.
Clinical Solutions
EHR/Practice Management Physician Practice Solutions. EHR solutions automate the collection and management of clinical data, allowing physician practice groups to enter, organize, and effectively utilize secure patient chart information at the point of care. EHR solutions also streamline practice-wide clinical workflow and communication and help physicians manage lab orders, results and other data. EHR solutions can improve healthcare quality and reduce costs by preventing medical errors, reducing paperwork and reducing administrative inefficiencies. Practice management systems automate administrative workflow, including scheduling, patient billing and collection and claims management. Practice management systems improve the efficiency of operations within a physician practice, particularly the financial aspects of the practice related to billing and reimbursement.
Hospital Emergency Department Solutions. Hospital emergency department information systems automate emergency room processes, including patient registration, triage, tracking and reporting. Hospital emergency department information systems enable hospitals to better manage patient flow and emergency department activity.
Care Management Solutions. Hospital care management programs automate processes related to case management, quality management and utilization management. Care management programs help hospitals manage length of stay, billing and claims processing, and patient care resources. The benefits of these solutions to hospitals include enhanced financial performance and improved patient outcomes. We believe there is relatively low penetration of care management solutions in the hospital market, and that there is a significant opportunity for us to penetrate this market.

Physicians Interactive
Clinical education and information solutions programs link physicians with pharmaceutical companies, medical product suppliers and health plans through e-mail, surveys, and online interactive programs. These web-based programs, often referred to as e-Detailing, use interactive sessions to provide product information and clinical education to physicians. Pharmaceutical companies leverage e-Detailing to assist in the marketing and sales efforts for their products. We believe that there is a significant opportunity for our clinical education and information solutions within this market. We believe that one of the drivers in this market is the growing need for pharmaceutical companies to communicate with physicians in more efficient and cost-effective ways. As more physicians access online resources, we believe that pharmaceutical companies are increasingly seeking to communicate with physicians directly through this highly effective channel. Our Physicians Interactive Group offers electronic marketing and educational programs to pharmaceutical companies, and delivers these programs to a network of physicians nationwide through an interactive web-based platform.
Medication Solutions
The market for the sale of prepackaged medications to physicians for on-site dispensing includes medications distributed for occupational health, workers compensation, urgent care and bariatric facilities. On-site dispensing offers provider organizations an opportunity to improve financial performance by adding an incremental source of revenue and reducing expenses related to prescription transmission, billing and processing. From a patient perspective, the dispensing of medications at the point of care provide an increased level of convenience, privacy and treatment compliance, whether in the physician’s office, at a clinic or at the patient’s place of employment.
Our Competitive Strengths
We believe that the following competitive strengths are the keys to our success:
First-Class Technologies That Enable Industry-Leading Solutions
We have been an innovator in the development and adoption of clinical solutions. We believe our clinical solutions provide the following advantages:
 
 	•	 	Accessibility. Physicians can instantly access our web-based clinical solutions from a variety of locations, including the exam room, hospital, office or home. With our EHR solutions, physicians can easily perform such important tasks as dictation and charge capturing in an offline mode and immediately transfer those files once reconnected to the network. Our solutions run on personal digital assistants, tablet PCs, desktop workstations and other wireless devices.	
 
 	•	 	Connectivity. Our clinical solutions connect physicians to the valuable, objective information they need prior to, during and after the care process, enabling physicians to provide higher quality care and do so more cost effectively. We also provide efficiency to other participants in the care continuum by linking them to the physician.	
 
 	•	 	Paperless Innovation. Our document imaging and scanning solutions allow even the largest organizations to manage information and documentation in a paperless environment and provide optical character recognition technology to rapidly retrieve information within the EHR.	
 
 	•	 	Wireless Leadership. Using wireless handheld devices or desktop workstations, we believe that we have accelerated the use in healthcare of a wireless platform, automating all of the most common physician activities, including prescribing, capturing charges, dictating, ordering lab tests, viewing lab results, providing patient education and taking clinical notes.	
 
 	•	 	Interoperability. Our products are designed to operate with existing installed systems, in both ambulatory and acute settings.

Table of Contents
 	•	 	Modularity. The ability to implement individual modules of certain of our solutions enables physicians to start with the tools that solve their most pressing needs and provides an opportunity for a rapid return on investment.	
 
 	•	 	Award-Winning Solutions. Our clinical software solutions have garnered numerous industry accolades and honors. In 2006, the Microsoft Healthcare Users Group (“MS-HUG”) selected Allscripts as “Best in Class” for Ambulatory Care for a second year in a row. Allscripts also earned a first-place award at the 2005 Emerging Technologies Healthcare Innovations Congress (“TETHIC”) Conference, in the category of Technology for the Improvement of Patient Outcomes. In 2004, a survey by KLAS Enterprises, LLC, a research and consulting firm specializing in monitoring and reporting the performance of healthcare’s information technology vendors, named TouchWorks as the top EHR solution. We have also won awards at the TEPR (Towards an Electronic Patient Record) Conference for our TouchWorks solution in 2004 and 2005.	
Significant Installed Base
Over 170 physician practices, representing over 2,000 clinics nationwide and including some of the country’s most prestigious medical groups, have selected our EHR solution, TouchWorks. Our customer base has been extended to include another approximately 1,700 healthcare organizations nationally with the A4 acquisition, encompassing mostly small and mid-sized physician practice groups. Our significant installed base serves as a referral source for our prospective clients who are interested in purchasing an EHR solution.
Breadth of Product and Service Offering
We are a leading provider of clinical software, connectivity and information solutions that physicians use to improve the delivery and quality of healthcare. Our suite of clinical software solutions includes electronic health records, e-prescribing, and personal health records, encompassing virtually all of the most common functions performed by a physician at the point of care. With the A4 acquisition in March 2006, our product offerings are further broadened to include an integrated EHR and practice management solution for small to mid-sized physician groups, as well as EDIS to hospital emergency departments, and care management solutions to hospitals.
Integrated Solution and Product Offering with IDX
We have a strategic alliance agreement with IDX, a wholly owned subsidiary of General Electric Company (“GE”), which was entered into in January 2001 and amended in January 2006. Under this agreement, we are a preferred provider of ambulatory, point-of-care clinical EHR solutions to IDX’s installed base of medium to large physician practices nationwide, representing over 138,000 potential physician customers. As of
December 31, 2005, we had signed contracts with over 130 IDX Clients.
Sales and Marketing
We have experienced sales executives with extensive industry expertise. In the Clinical Solutions Group, we primarily sell directly to our customers, including to the IDX customer base, through our sales force. We also have targeted direct sales forces for our Physicians Interactive Group and our Medication Services Group. As of December 31, 2005, we had 57 full-time, sales and marketing employees, 48 of whom represented our direct sales force (including 39 direct sales personnel in our Clinical Solutions Group). As a result of the A4 acquisition on March 2, 2006, we added approximately 59 sales and marketing employees (51 direct sales forces) to our full-time employee headcount.
Products and Services
Clinical Solutions Group
Our Clinical Solutions Group provides the following clinical software solutions:
 
 	•	 	TouchWorks is an award-winning EHR solution designed to enhance physician productivity using Tablet PCs, wireless handheld devices, or a desktop workstation for the purpose of automating the most

Table of Contents
 	common physician activities, including prescribing, dictating, ordering lab tests and viewing results, documenting clinical encounters, and capturing charges, among others. TouchWorks has the functionality to handle the complexities of large physician practices, while also addressing the needs of mid-sized physician practice groups.	
 
 	•	 	TouchScript is an e-prescribing solution that physicians can access securely via the Internet to quickly, safely and securely prescribe medications, check for drug interactions, access medication histories, review drug reference information, and send prescriptions directly to a pharmacy or mail order facility. TouchScript can be a starting point for medical groups to seamlessly transition over time to a complete EHR.	
 
 	•	 	TouchChart (formerly Impact.MD) provides an electronic repository for all patient record information including patient charts, office notes, lab results, explanation of benefits, and referral letters among other paper based documents. As with TouchScript, TouchChart can be a starting point for medical groups seeking to seamlessly transition over time to a complete EHR.	
As a result of the A4 acquisition on March 2, 2006, we now offer the following clinical solutions to physician practice groups and clinical solutions to hospital emergency and care management departments, as well as, practice management solutions to physician groups:
 
 	•	 	HealthMatics EHR is an electronic health record solution targeted at small to mid-sized physician practice groups. Like our TouchWorks EHR, this solution automates the most common physician activities, such as prescribing, clinical reporting, ordering lab tests and viewing results, and capturing charges. We also offer a disaster recovery solution that safeguards data and provides remote application access in the event of a failure at the primary system site.	
 
 	•	 	HealthMatics Ntierprise is a practice management system that streamlines administrative aspects of physician practices, including patient scheduling, electronic remittances, electronic claims submission and electronic statement production.

Our electronic data interchange solution facilitates statement management processing, claims management processing, electronic remittances and appointment reminders.	
 
 	•	 	HealthMatics ED and EmSTAT are emergency department information systems designed to manage patient flow through the emergency department by tracking patient location, activity and outstanding orders and procedures. These solutions guide emergency clinicians in entering consistent, complete and efficient documentation on patients and provide shareable, real-time, mobile access to patient information from registration to discharge.	
 
 	•	 	Canopy is a web-based software solution that streamlines the patient care management process. Canopy automates utilization, case, discharge and quality management processes relating to patient hospital visits. These systems are based on an application service provider (“ASP”) model designed to provide ease of use and minimal IT staff involvement at the hospital.	
Physicians Interactive Group
Our Physicians Interactive Group provides the following key solutions:
 
 	•	 	Physicians Interactive is a web-based solution that connects physicians with pharmaceutical companies, medical device manufacturers, and biotech companies. One element of this solution, often referred to as e-Detailing, uses interactive sessions to provide clinical education and information to physicians about medical products and disease states. This promotes more informed decision-making, increased efficiency, and ultimately higher quality patient care. Other elements of the Physicians Interactive platform include e-surveys, clinical updates, resource centers, key opinion leader materials, and other physician relationship management services.	
 
 	•	 	Patients Interactive is a web-based solution that enables physician-directed patient education, promoting medication adherence and compliance, and disease management. Through our partnership

 	with Medem, our Patients Interactive and TouchWorks solutions also provide physicians and patients with a tool for secure online consultations, automated disease management services and personal health records.	
 
 	•	 	Enterprise eMarketing Solution, which we recently introduced, provides pharmaceutical companies with a turnkey system to build an electronic dialogue and manage ongoing relationships with physicians. The Enterprise eMarketing solution incorporates a full suite of online tools, including campaign management, physician communication and education, sample and rep requests, as well as e-Detailing opportunities. All of these tools are driven through a sophisticated physician-centric database that dynamically delivers customized information according to physician preferences.	
Medication Services Group
Our Medication Services Group provides point-of-care medication management and medical supply solutions for physicians and other healthcare providers. With over 15,000 physician customers nationwide, our solutions enable physician groups, including occupational health, workers compensation, urgent care and bariatric facilities, to dispense medications at the point of care. Our medication repackaging solutions offer provider organizations an opportunity to improve financial performance by adding an incremental source of revenue and reducing expenses related to prescription transmission, billing and processing. From a patient perspective, our medication repackaging solutions provide an increased level of convenience, privacy and treatment compliance.
Research and Development
As of December 31, 2005, we had 56 employees in our research and development group. In addition, we engage the services of approximately 40 dedicated development professionals in India. The primary purposes of our research and development groups are to develop new features and enhancements to our respective solutions, ensure that our solutions comply with continually evolving regulatory requirements and create additional opportunities to connect our systems to the healthcare community.
For the year ended December 31, 2005, we spent approximately 10% of our software and services revenue on related research and product development. We capitalize software development costs incurred from the time technological feasibility of the software is established until the software is available for general release. Non-capitalizable research and development costs and other computer software maintenance costs related to software development are expensed as incurred.
Competition
The market for our products and services is fragmented, intensely competitive and is characterized by rapidly evolving industry standards, technology and user needs and the frequent introduction of new products and services. Some of our competitors may be more established, benefit from greater name recognition and have substantially greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than us. We compete on the basis of several factors, including:
 
 	•	 	breadth and depth of services;	
 
 	•	 	reputation;	
 
 	•	 	reliability, accuracy and security;	
 
 	•	 	client service;	
 
 	•	 	price; and	
 
 	•	 	industry expertise and experience.	
Clinical Solutions Group
Our industry is intensely competitive and rapidly evolving in terms of both technology and product standards. There are numerous companies that offer EHR products and the marketplace remains fragmented. We

face competition from several types of organizations, including providers of practice management solutions, ambulatory and acute EHR solutions, and enterprise-wide application solutions.
Our key competitors in the EHR and practice management markets include Cerner Corporation, eClinicalWorks Inc., Emdeon Corporation (formerly known as WebMD corporation), Epic Systems Corporation, GE, iMedica Corporation, McKesson Corporation, Misys Healthcare Systems and Quality Systems, Inc. In the hospital market, our key competitors are MedHost, Inc., Picis, Inc. and Wellsoft Corporation.
Physicians Interactive Group
We compete with several types of organizations, including clinical information and education providers, such as disease state management companies, full service e-marketing companies, companies who provide e-Detailing software, and the in-house efforts of our clients, including health plans, pharmacy benefit managers, and pharmaceutical companies. Our key competitors include Aptilon Inc., Dendrite International, Inc., Emdeon Corporation, Lathian Systems, Inc., Medsite, Inc., Quintiles Transnational Corp. and Ventiv Health, Inc.
Medication Services Group
Competitors of our Medication Services Group include other medication repackaging service and bulk pharmaceutical distributors. Our key competitors in this segment include Cardinal Health, Inc., DRx (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Purkinje, Inc.), McKesson Corporation, PD-Rx Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Pharmapac, Physicians Total Care, Inc., Southwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and various other regional distributors.
Strategic Alliances
Our key strategic relationships include the following:
 
 	•	 	IDX. We have a strategic alliance agreement with IDX and GE that was entered into with IDX in January 2001 and amended on January 18, 2006. Under this agreement, we are a preferred provider of ambulatory, point-of-care clinical EHR solutions to IDX’s installed base of medium to large physician practices nationwide, representing over 138,000 potential physician customers. The amended agreement with IDX and GE, which runs through January 2011, supports the ongoing integration and compatibility of the Allscripts and IDX products. We also have the right to offer our own integrated practice management and EHR solution outside of the IDX installed base. IDX owned approximately 17.3% of our common stock at December 31, 2005 and approximately 11.2% after giving effect to the public share offering of 8.4 million shares on February 28, 2006, the A4 acquisition on March 2, 2006 in which the purchase price was partially funded through the issuance of 3.5 million shares to former A4 shareholders, and the stock repurchase of 1.3 million shares from IDX on March 9, 2006.	
 
 	•	 	Medem. Allscripts has a strategic partnership with Medem, Inc., a physician-patient communications network, founded and governed by the American Medical Association and 45 leading medical societies. Allscripts and Medem collaborate on distribution and expansion of interactive e-health solutions to physicians and their patients, with a focus on secure personal health records for patients, connecting to selected information from Allscripts’ electronic health record and e-prescribing solutions. Medem also provides personal interactive health records for patients, customizable web sites for physician practices with integrated HIPAA-compliant secure email, fee-based online clinical consultation software, and trusted, award-winning clinical content from America’s leading medical societies. We own approximately 1.9% of Medem and have the ability to increase this ownership to approximately 33.2% (41.1% of voting shares) if we exercise our option to purchase additional equity and exercise our right to convert our notes into additional equity. These percentages give effect to the additional $500,000 convertible secured promissory note funded in February 2006 under a contract signed in November 2005.	
Employees
As of December 31, 2005, we employed 386 persons on a full-time basis, including 162 in customer service and support, 57 in sales and marketing, 31 in production and warehousing, 56 in product development and 80 in

Table of Contents
general and administrative. As a result of the A4 acquisition on March 2, 2006, we added approximately 393 persons on a full-time basis, including 206 in customer service and support, 59 in sales and marketing, 103 in product development and 25 in general and administrative. None of our employees is covered by a collective bargaining agreement or is represented by a labor union.
Backlog
At December 31, 2005 and 2004, our aggregate backlog for our software and information services segments totaled approximately $91 million and $67 million, respectively. Approximately $48 million to $52 million of the 2005 backlog is not expected to be realized during 2006. Our backlog information excludes our prepackaged medications segment due to the short-term nature of a prepackaged medication order and also excludes contracted maintenance beyond a twelve month horizon.
Financial Information About Segments
Financial information about our three segments is described in Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
Available Information
Our website address is www.allscripts.com. Information on our website is not incorporated by reference herein. Copies of our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, and any amendments to those reports, as well as Section 16 reports filed by our insiders, are available free of charge on our website as soon as reasonably practicable after we file the reports with, or furnish the reports to, the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and other information in this report and documents incorporated and deemed to be incorporated by reference in this report. These are not the only risks and uncertainties that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not currently know about or that we currently believe are immaterial may also harm our business operations. If any of these risks or uncertainties occurs, it could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Risks Related to Our Business
If physicians and hospitals do not accept our products and services, or delay in deciding whether to purchase our products and services, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
Our business model depends on our ability to sell our products and services. Acceptance of our products and services requires physicians and hospitals to adopt different behavior patterns and new methods of conducting business and exchanging information. We cannot assure you that physicians and hospitals will integrate our products and services into their workflow or that participants in the healthcare market will accept our products and services as a replacement for traditional methods of conducting healthcare transactions. Achieving market acceptance for our products and services will require substantial sales and marketing efforts and the expenditure of significant financial and other resources to create awareness and demand by participants in the healthcare industry. If we fail to achieve broad acceptance of our products and services by physicians, hospitals and other healthcare industry participants or if we fail to position our services as a preferred method for information management and pharmaceutical healthcare delivery, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
If we are unable to successfully integrate businesses we acquire, our ability to expand our product and service offerings and our customer base may be limited.
In order to expand our product and service offerings and grow our business by reaching new customers, we may continue to acquire businesses that we believe are complementary. The successful integration of acquired

Table of Contents
businesses, including A4, is critical to our success. Such acquisitions, including the A4 acquisition, involve numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the operations, services, products and personnel of the acquired company, the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns, entry into markets in which we have little or no direct prior experience, the potential loss of the acquired company’s key employees and our inability to maintain the goodwill of the acquired businesses. If we fail to successfully integrate acquired businesses or fail to implement our business strategies with respect to these acquisitions, we may not be able to achieve projected results or support the amount of consideration paid for such acquired businesses.
The successful implementation of our acquisition strategy depends on our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates, acquire companies on acceptable terms, integrate their operations and technology successfully with our own and maintain the goodwill of the acquired business. We are unable to predict whether or when any prospective acquisition candidate will become available or the likelihood that any acquisition will be completed. Moreover, in pursuing acquisition opportunities, we may compete for acquisition targets with other companies with similar growth strategies. Some of these competitors may be larger and have greater financial and other resources than we have. Competition for these acquisition targets could also result in increased prices of acquisition targets.
Our business will be harmed if we cannot maintain our strategic alliance agreement and the cross license agreement with IDX or if we are unable to enter into and maintain relationships with IDX customers.
In 2001, we entered into a 10-year strategic alliance agreement with IDX pursuant to which we and IDX agreed to coordinate product development and align our respective marketing processes. Under this agreement, IDX had granted us the exclusive right to market, sell, license and distribute ambulatory point-of-care and clinical EHR solutions to IDX customers. On January 4, 2006, IDX was acquired by GE and on January 18, 2006, we, IDX and GE amended and restated our strategic alliance agreement. Under this amended agreement, the exclusivity provisions of the original agreement were modified such that, in addition to our solutions, GE may market its Centricity electronic health record ambulatory solution to IDX customers. After July 18, 2007, these exclusivity provisions will terminate and IDX may, but will not be required to, market our solutions to its customers. Further, under the original agreement, we were restricted from providing practice management systems. The amended agreement eliminates these restrictions, except that if we acquire a practice management system, we may not market or provide such system to the existing IDX customer base until July 18, 2007. Therefore, we are unable to market the practice management system acquired in the recent A4 acquisition to IDX customers until after that date. We have historically generated a significant portion of our bookings from IDX customers. In that regard, approximately 73% and 78% of TouchWorks bookings for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, were from sales to members of IDX’s customer base. If we are unable to compete effectively against the Centricity product or are otherwise unable to maintain sales to IDX customers at the levels we have historically experienced, our revenues may decrease and our results of operations may be harmed. Additionally, if certain competitors of IDX or GE acquire us prior to July 18, 2007, the above-described restrictions on IDX’s ability to market products competitive to our products will terminate.
Under the amended agreement, we and IDX will continue to cooperate with respect to installation and implementation of one another’s products for common IDX and Allscripts customers and in the provision of customer support services to ensure that such products remain interoperable. If the amended agreement is terminated for any reason, or if IDX and GE were to fail to fulfill their obligations under the amended agreement, we would lose the benefits of the amended agreement, which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We also have a cross license and software maintenance agreement with IDX pursuant to which we granted IDX a non-exclusive, non-cancelable and non-terminable license to use, market and sublicense certain of our software combined with IDX products, and IDX granted us a non-exclusive, non-cancelable and non-terminable license to use, market and sublicense certain IDX software for use with our products. If the amended agreement is terminated, we will not have access to certain IDX software, harming our ability to integrate our services with IDX systems and provide real-time data synchronization. This may make our systems less desirable to IDX customers and could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

It is difficult to predict the sales cycle for our healthcare software solutions and physician education services.
The duration of the sales cycle for our healthcare software solutions and physician education services depends on a number of factors, including the nature and size of the potential customer and the extent of the commitment being made by the potential customer, and is difficult to predict. Our sales and marketing efforts with respect to hospitals and large healthcare organizations generally involve a lengthy sales cycle due to these organizations’ complex decision-making processes. Additionally, in light of increased government involvement in healthcare, and related changes in the operating environment for healthcare organizations, our current and potential customers may react by curtailing or deferring investments, including those for our services. If potential customers take longer than we expect to decide whether to purchase our solutions, our selling expenses could increase and our revenues could decrease, which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Competition for our employees is intense, and we may not be able to attract and retain the highly skilled employees we need to support our business.
Our ability to provide high-quality services to our clients depends in large part upon our employees’ experience and expertise. We must attract and retain highly qualified personnel with a deep understanding of the healthcare and healthcare information technology industries. We compete with a number of companies for experienced personnel and many of these companies, including clients and competitors, have greater resources than we have and may be able to offer more attractive terms of employment. In addition, we invest significant time and expense in training our employees, which increases their value to clients and competitors who may seek to recruit them and increases the costs of replacing them. If we fail to retain our employees, the quality of our services could diminish and this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we lose the services of our key personnel, we may be unable to replace them, and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Our success largely depends on the continued skills, experience, efforts and policies of our management and other key personnel and our ability to continue to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified employees. In particular, the services of Glen E. Tullman, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, are integral to the execution of our business strategy. If one or more of our key employees leaves our employment, we will have to find a replacement with the combination of skills and attributes necessary to execute our strategy. Because competition for skilled employees is intense, and the process of finding qualified individuals can be lengthy and expensive, we believe that the loss of the services of key personnel could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that we will continue to retain such personnel. We do not maintain keyman insurance for any of our key employees.
If we are unable to successfully introduce new products or services or fail to keep pace with advances in technology, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
The successful implementation of our business model depends on our ability to adapt to evolving technologies and industry standards and introduce new products and services. We cannot assure you that we will be able to introduce new products on schedule, or at all, or that such products will achieve market acceptance. Moreover, competitors may develop competitive products that could adversely affect our results of operations. A failure by us to introduce planned products or other new products or to introduce these products on schedule could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we cannot adapt to changing technologies, our products and services may become obsolete, and our business could suffer. Because the Internet and healthcare information markets are characterized by rapid technological change, we may be unable to anticipate changes in our current and potential customers’ requirements that could make our existing technology obsolete. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to

Table of Contents
continue to enhance our existing products and services, develop new technology that addresses the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of our prospective customers, license leading technologies and respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a timely and cost-effective basis. The development of our proprietary technology entails significant technical and business risks. We may not be successful in using new technologies effectively or adapting our proprietary technology to evolving customer requirements or emerging industry standards, and, as a result, our business could suffer.
Because our business model has changed in recent years, our operating history is not indicative of our future performance, and our business is difficult to evaluate.
Because our business model has changed and evolved in recent years, we do not have an extensive operating history upon which you can evaluate our business, financial condition or results of operations. In implementing our business model, we significantly changed our business operations, sales and implementation practices, customer service and support operations and management focus. We also face new risks and challenges, including a lack of meaningful historical financial data upon which to plan future budgets and the need to develop strategic relationships and pursue other strategic opportunities. In addition, as a result of the A4 acquisition on March 2, 2006, we face other risks related to our business model described below, including the risks described under “Risks Related to the Acquisition.”
Our business depends in part on and will continue to depend in part on our ability to establish and maintain additional strategic relationships.
To be successful, we must continue to maintain our existing strategic relationships and establish additional strategic relationships with leaders in a number of healthcare and healthcare information technology industry segments. This is critical to our success because we believe that these relationships contribute towards our ability to:
 
 	•	 	extend the reach of our products and services to a larger number of physicians and hospitals and to other participants in the healthcare industry;	
 
 	•	 	develop and deploy new products and services;	
 
 	•	 	further enhance the Allscripts brand; and	
 
 	•	 	generate additional revenue and cash flows.	
Entering into strategic relationships is complicated because strategic partners may decide to compete with us in some or all of our markets. In addition, we may not be able to maintain or establish relationships with key participants in the healthcare industry if we conduct business with their competitors. We depend, in part, on our strategic partners’ ability to generate increased acceptance and use of our products and services. If we lose any of these strategic relationships or fail to establish additional relationships, or if our strategic relationships fail to benefit us as expected, we may not be able to execute our business plan, and our business, financial condition and results of operations may suffer.
Future acquisitions may result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of indebtedness and increased amortization expense.
Future acquisitions may result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities. In addition, future acquisitions may result in the incurrence of debt, the assumption of known and unknown liabilities, the write off of software development costs and the amortization of expenses related to intangible assets, all of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We have taken, and, if an impairment occurs, could take, charges against earnings in connection with acquisitions. In connection with the A4 acquisition, we expect to incur a restructuring charge of approximately $2 to $3 million; however, the actual charge may be greater than this amount.

If our products fail to perform properly due to undetected errors or similar problems, our business could suffer.
Complex software such as ours often contains undetected defects or errors. It is possible that such errors may be found after introduction of new software or enhancements to existing software. We continually introduce new solutions and enhancements to our solutions, and, despite testing by us, it is possible that errors might occur in our software. If we detect any errors before we introduce a solution, we might have to delay deployment for an extended period of time while we address the problem. If we do not discover software errors that affect our new or current solutions or enhancements until after they are deployed, we would need to provide enhancements to correct such errors. Errors in our software could result in:
 
 	•	 	harm to our reputation;	
 
 	•	 	lost sales;	
 
 	•	 	delays in commercial release;	
 
 	•	 	product liability claims;	
 
 	•	 	delays in or loss of market acceptance of our solutions;	
 
 	•	 	license terminations or renegotiations; and	
 
 	•	 	unexpected expenses and diversion of resources to remedy errors.	
Furthermore, our customers might use our software together with products from other companies. As a result, when problems occur, it might be difficult to identify the source of the problem. Even when our software does not cause these problems, the existence of these errors might cause us to incur significant costs, divert the attention of our technical personnel from our solution development efforts, impact our reputation and cause significant customer relations problems.
Our future success depends upon our ability to grow, and if we are unable to manage our growth effectively, we may incur unexpected expenses and be unable to meet our customers’ requirements.
We will need to expand our operations if we successfully achieve market acceptance for our products and services. We cannot be certain that our systems, procedures, controls and existing space will be adequate to support expansion of our operations. Our future operating results will depend on the ability of our officers and key employees to manage changing business conditions and to implement and improve our technical, administrative, financial control and reporting systems. We may not be able to expand and upgrade our systems and infrastructure to accommodate these increases. Difficulties in managing any future growth could have a significant negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations because we may incur unexpected expenses and be unable to meet our customers’ requirements.
We have experienced losses in the past and we may not remain profitable in the future.
We generated net income of approximately $9.7 million and $3.1 million in the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We generated net losses of approximately $5.0 million and approximately $15.2 million in the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. We cannot be certain that we will generate sufficient revenues to maintain profitability in any future periods. If our revenues grow more slowly than we anticipate, or if our operating expenses increase more than we expect or cannot be reduced in the event of lower revenues, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
Our failure to compete successfully could cause our revenue or market share to decline.
The market for our products and services is fragmented, intensely competitive and is characterized by rapidly evolving industry standards, technology and user needs and the frequent introduction of new products and

services. Some of our competitors may be more established, benefit from greater name recognition and have substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources than us. Moreover, we expect that competition will continue to increase as a result of consolidation in both the information technology and healthcare industries. If one or more of our competitors or potential competitors were to merge or partner with one of our competitors, the change in the competitive landscape could adversely affect our ability to compete effectively. We compete on the basis of several factors, including:
 
 	•	 	breadth and depth of services;	
 
 	•	 	reputation;	
 
 	•	 	reliability, accuracy and security;	
 
 	•	 	client service;	
 
 	•	 	price; and	
 
 	•	 	industry expertise and experience.	
Our Clinical Solutions Group’s principal competitors include Cerner Corporation, eClinicalWorks Inc., Emdeon Corporation, formerly known as WebMD corporation, Epic Systems Corporation, GE, iMedica Corporation, McKesson Corporation, MedHost, Inc., Misys Healthcare Systems, Picis Inc., Quality Systems, Inc. and Wellsoft Corporation. A4 also competes with certain of these entities. We also face competition from providers of practice management solutions, ambulatory and acute EHR solutions, and enterprise-wide application solutions.
Our Physicians Interactive Group’s principal competitors include Aptilon Inc., Dendrite International, Inc., Emdeon Corporation, Lathian Systems, Inc., Medsite, Inc., Quintiles Transnational Corp. and Ventiv Health, Inc. We also face competition from clinical information and education providers, such as disease state management companies, full service e-marketing companies, companies who provide electronic detailing software, and the in-house efforts of our clients, including health plans, pharmacy benefit managers, and pharmaceutical companies.
Our Medication Services Group’s principal competitors include Cardinal Health, Inc., DRx (a wholly owned subsidiary of Purkinje, Inc.), McKesson Corporation, PD-Rx Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Pharmapac, Physicians Total Care, Inc., Southwood Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and various other regional distributors. We also face competition from providers of other medication repackaging service and bulk pharmaceutical distributors.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors or that the competitive pressures that we face will not materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our business depends on our intellectual property rights, and if we are unable to protect them, our competitive position may suffer.
Our business plan is predicated on our proprietary systems and technology and physician education products. Accordingly, protecting our intellectual property rights is critical to our continued success and our ability to maintain our competitive position. We protect our proprietary rights through a combination of trademark, trade secret and copyright law, confidentiality agreements and technical measures. We generally do not have any patents on our technology. We generally enter into non-disclosure agreements with our employees and consultants and limit access to our trade secrets and technology. We cannot assure you that the steps we have taken will prevent misappropriation of our technology. Misappropriation of our intellectual property would have an adverse effect on our competitive position. In addition, we may have to engage in litigation in the future to enforce or protect our intellectual property rights or to defend against claims of invalidity, and we may incur substantial costs and the diversion of management’s time and attention as a result.

Table of Contents
If we are deemed to infringe on the proprietary rights of third parties, we could incur unanticipated expense and be prevented from providing our products and services.
We could be subject to intellectual property infringement claims as the number of our competitors grows and our applications’ functionality overlaps with competitive products. While we do not believe that we have infringed or are infringing on any proprietary rights of third parties, we cannot assure you that infringement claims will not be asserted against us or that those claims will be unsuccessful. We could incur substantial costs and diversion of management resources defending any infringement claims. Furthermore, a party making a claim against us could secure a judgment awarding substantial damages, as well as injunctive or other equitable relief that could effectively block our ability to provide products or services. In addition, we cannot assure you that licenses for any intellectual property of third parties that might be required for our products or services will be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
Factors beyond our control could cause interruptions in our operations, which would adversely affect our reputation in the marketplace and our business, financial condition and results of operations.
To succeed, we must be able to operate our systems without interruption. Certain of our communications and information services are provided through our third-party service providers. Our operations are vulnerable to interruption by damage from a variety of sources, many of which are not within our control, including without limitation: (1) power loss and telecommunications failures; (2) software and hardware errors, failures or crashes; (3) computer viruses and similar disruptive problems; and (4) fire, flood and other natural disasters.
Any significant interruptions in our services would damage our reputation in the marketplace and have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may be liable for use of data we provide.
We provide data for use by healthcare providers in treating patients. Third-party contractors provide us with most of this data. If this data is incorrect or incomplete, adverse consequences, including death, may occur and give rise to product liability and other claims against us. In addition, certain of our solutions provide applications that relate to patient clinical information, and a court or government agency may take the position that our delivery of health information directly, including through licensed practitioners, or delivery of information by a third party site that a consumer accesses through our websites, exposes us to personal injury liability, or other liability for wrongful delivery or handling of healthcare services or erroneous health information. While we maintain product liability insurance coverage in an amount that we believe is sufficient for our business, we cannot assure you that this coverage will prove to be adequate or will continue to be available on acceptable terms, if at all. A claim brought against us that is uninsured or under-insured could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Even unsuccessful claims could result in substantial costs and diversion of management resources.
If our security is breached, we could be subject to liability, and customers could be deterred from using our services.
The difficulty of securely transmitting confidential information over the Internet has been a significant barrier to engaging in sensitive communications over the Internet. Our business relies on using the Internet to transmit confidential information. We believe that any well-publicized compromise of Internet security may deter people from using the Internet for these purposes and from using our system to conduct transactions that involve transmitting confidential healthcare information.
It is also possible that third parties could penetrate our network security or otherwise misappropriate patient information and other data. If this happens, our operations could be interrupted, and we could be subject to liability and regulatory action. We may need to devote significant financial and other resources to protect against
 
15

Table of Contents
security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by breaches. We could face financial loss, litigation and other liabilities to the extent that our activities or the activities of third-party contractors involve the storage and transmission of confidential information like patient records or credit information.
If we are unable to obtain additional financing for our future needs, our ability to respond to competitive pressures may be impaired and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We cannot be certain that additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. If adequate financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, our ability to fund our expansion, take advantage of potential acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance services or products, or respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited.
If our content and service providers fail to perform adequately, our reputation in the marketplace and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We depend on independent content and service providers for many of the benefits we provide through our clinical software and our physician education applications and services, including the maintenance of managed care pharmacy guidelines, drug interaction reviews and the routing of transaction data to third-party payers. If our services are interrupted as a result of any problems with our providers, our reputation in the marketplace could be damaged, which would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We may have no means of replacing content or services on a timely basis or at all if they are inadequate or in the event of a service interruption or failure.
We also rely on independent content providers for the majority of the clinical, educational and other healthcare information that we provide. In addition, we depend on our content providers to deliver high quality content from reliable sources and to continually upgrade their content in response to demand and evolving healthcare industry trends. If these parties fail to develop and maintain high quality, attractive content, the value of our brand and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be impaired.
If we are forced to reduce our prices for prepackaged medications, our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer.
We expect to continue to derive a significant portion of our revenue from sales of prepackaged medications to physicians. We may be subject to pricing pressures with respect to our future sales of prepackaged medications arising from various sources, including practices of managed care organizations, Internet pharmacies, including those operating in Canada and other countries outside the United States, and government action affecting pharmaceutical reimbursement under Medicare. Our customers and the other entities with which we have a business relationship are affected by changes in regulations and limitations in governmental spending for Medicare and Medicaid programs. Recent actions by Congress could limit government spending for the Medicare and Medicaid programs, limit payments to hospitals and other providers and increase emphasis on competition and other programs that potentially could have an adverse effect on our customers and the other entities with which we have a business relationship. If our pricing of prepackaged medications experiences significant downward pressure, our business will be less profitable and our results of operations would be adversely affected. In addition, because cash from sales of prepackaged medications funds some of our working capital requirements, reduced profitability with respect to prepackaged medications could require us to raise additional capital sooner than we would otherwise need.
If we are unable to maintain existing relationships and create new relationships with managed care payers, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
We rely on managed care organizations to reimburse our physician customers for prescription medications dispensed in their offices. While many of the leading managed care payers and pharmacy benefit managers currently reimburse our physicians for in-office dispensing, none of these payers is under a long-term obligation to do so. If we are unable to increase the number of managed care payers that reimburse for in-office dispensing,
 
16

Table of Contents
or if some or all of the payers who currently reimburse physicians decline to do so in the future, utilization of our products and services would decrease and, therefore, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
If we incur costs exceeding our insurance coverage in lawsuits pending against us or that are brought against us in the future, it could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are a defendant in numerous multi-defendant lawsuits involving the manufacture and sale of dexfenfluramine, fenfluramine and phentermine. In the event we are found liable in any lawsuits filed against us, and if our insurance coverage were inadequate to satisfy these liabilities, it could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. See “Business—Legal Proceedings.”
If our principal supplier fails or is unable to perform its contract with us, we may be unable to meet our commitments to our customers.
We currently purchase a majority of the medications that we repackage from AmerisourceBergen, pursuant to an agreement which expires on February 1, 2007, with an option to renew for an additional two years upon mutual agreement. If we do not meet certain minimum purchasing requirements, AmerisourceBergen may increase the prices that we pay under this agreement, in which case we would have the option to terminate the agreement. Although we believe that there are a number of other sources of supply of medications, if AmerisourceBergen fails or is unable to perform under our agreement, particularly at certain critical times during the year, we may be unable to meet our commitments to our customers, and our relationships with our customers could suffer.
Our failure to license and integrate third-party technologies could harm our business.
We depend upon licenses for some of the technology used in our solutions from third-party vendors, including Microsoft, and intend to continue licensing technologies from third parties. These technologies might not continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Most of these licenses can be renewed only by mutual consent and may be terminated if we breach the terms of the license and fail to cure the breach within a specified period of time. Our inability to obtain any of these licenses could delay development until equivalent technology can be identified, licensed and integrated, which would harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Most of our third-party licenses are non-exclusive and our competitors may obtain the right to use any of the technology covered by these licenses and use the technology to compete directly with us. Our use of third-party technologies exposes us to increased risks, including, but not limited to, risks associated with the integration of new technology into our solutions, the diversion of our resources from development of our own proprietary technology and our inability to generate revenue from licensed technology sufficient to offset associated acquisition and maintenance costs. In addition, if our vendors choose to discontinue support of the licensed technology in the future or are unsuccessful in their continued research and development efforts, we might not be able to modify or adapt our own solutions.
If we do not maintain and expand our business with our existing customers, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Our business model depends on the success of our efforts to sell additional products and services to our existing customers. For example, certain of our Clinical Solutions Group customers initially purchase one or a limited number of our modules. These customers might choose not to expand their use of or purchase additional modules. In addition, as we deploy new applications and features for our existing solutions or introduce new solutions and services, our current customers could choose not to purchase these new offerings. If we fail to generate additional business from our current customers, our revenue could grow at a slower rate or even decrease.

Risks Related to Our Industry
We are subject to a number of existing laws, regulations and industry initiatives, non-compliance with certain of which could shut down our operations or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, and we are susceptible to a changing regulatory environment.
As a participant in the healthcare industry, our operations and relationships, and those of our customers, are regulated by a number of federal, state and local governmental entities. The impact of this on us is direct, to the extent we are ourselves subject to these laws and regulations, and is also indirect in that, in a number of situations, even though we may not be directly regulated by specific healthcare laws and regulations, our products must be capable of being used by our customers in a manner that complies with those laws and regulations. Inability of our customers to do so could affect the marketability of our products or our compliance with our customer contracts, or even expose us to direct liability on a theory that we had assisted our customers in a violation of healthcare laws or regulations. Because our business relationships with physicians are unique, and the healthcare technology industry as a whole is relatively young, the application of many state and federal regulations to our business operations and to our customers is uncertain. It is possible that a review of our business practices or those of our customers by courts or regulatory authorities could result in a determination that could adversely affect us. In addition, the healthcare regulatory environment may change in a way that restricts our existing operations or our growth. The healthcare industry is expected to continue to undergo significant changes for the foreseeable future, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot predict the effect of possible future legislation and regulation.
Specific risks include, but are not limited to, risks relating to:
 
 	•	 	Patient Information. As part of the operation of our business, our customers provide to us patient-identifiable medical information related to the prescription drugs that they prescribe and other aspects of patient treatment. Government and industry legislation and rulemaking, especially the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), and standards and requirements published by industry groups such as the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, require the use of standard transactions, standard identifiers, security and other standards and requirements for the transmission of certain electronic health information. New national standards and procedures under HIPAA include the “ Standards for Electronic Transactions and Code Sets ” (the Transaction Standards); the “ Security Standards ” (the Security Standards); and the “ Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information ” (the Privacy Standards). The Transaction Standards require the use of specified data coding, formatting and content in all specified “Health Care Transactions” conducted electronically. The Security Standards require the adoption of specified types of security for healthcare information. The Privacy Standards grant a number of rights to individuals as to their identifiable confidential medical information (called Protected Health Information) and restrict the use and disclosure of Protected Health Information by Covered Entities, defined as “health care providers, health care payers, and health care clearinghouses.” Generally, the HIPAA standards directly affect Covered Entities. We have reviewed our activities and believe that we are a Covered Entity to the extent that we maintain a “group health plan” for the benefit of our employees. Such a plan, even if not a separate legal entity from us as its sponsor, is included in the HIPAA definition of Covered Entities. We have taken steps we believe to be appropriate and required to bring our group health plan into compliance with HIPAA. We do not believe that we are a Covered Entity as a health care provider or as a health care clearinghouse; however, the definition of a health care clearinghouse is broad and we cannot offer any assurance that we could not be considered a health care clearinghouse under HIPAA or that, if we are determined to be a healthcare clearinghouse, the consequences would not be adverse to our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Privacy Standards affect third parties that create or access Protected Health Information in order to perform a function or activity on behalf of a Covered Entity. Such third parties are called “Business Associates.” Covered Entities must have a written “Business Associate Agreement” with such third parties, containing specified written satisfactory assurances that the third party will safeguard Protected Health Information that it creates or	
 
18

Table of Contents
 	accesses and will fulfill other material obligations to support the Covered Entity’s own HIPAA compliance. Most of our customers are Covered Entities, and we function in many of our relationships as a Business Associate of those customers. We would face liability under our Business Associate Agreements if we do not comply with our Business Associate obligations. In addition, the federal agencies with enforcement authority have taken the position that a Covered Entity can be subject to HIPAA penalties and sanctions for a breach of a Business Associate Agreement. The penalties for a violation of HIPAA by a Covered Entity are significant and could have an adverse impact upon our business, financial condition and results of operations, if such penalties ever were imposed. Additionally, Covered Entities will be required to adopt a unique standard National Provider Identifier (NPI) for use in filing and processing health care claims and other transactions. Subject to the discussion set forth above, we believe that the principal effects of HIPAA are, first, to require that our systems be capable of being operated by our customers in a manner that is compliant with the various HIPAA standards and, second, to require us to enter into and comply with Business Associate Agreements with our Covered Entity customers. For most Covered Entities, the deadlines for compliance with the Privacy Standards and the Transaction Standards occurred in 2003. Covered Entities were required to be in compliance with the Security Standards by April 20, 2005 and to use NPIs in standard transactions no later than the compliance dates, which are May 23, 2007 for all but small health plans and one year later for small health plans. We have policies and procedures that we believe assure compliance with all federal and state confidentiality requirements for the handling of Protected Health Information that we receive and with our obligations under Business Associate Agreements. In particular, we believe that our systems and products are capable of being used by our customers in compliance with the Transaction Standards and Security Standards and are, or will be, capable of being used by our customers in compliance with the NPI requirements. If, however, we do not follow those procedures and policies, or they are not sufficient to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of Protected Health Information, we could be subject to liability, fines and lawsuits, termination of our customer contracts or our operations could be shut down. Moreover, because all HIPAA Standards are subject to change or interpretation and because certain other HIPAA Standards, not discussed above, are not yet published, we cannot predict the full future impact of HIPAA on our business and operations. In the event that the HIPAA standards and compliance requirements change or are interpreted in a way that requires any material change to the way in which we do business, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Additionally, certain state laws are not preempted by HIPAA and may impose independent obligations upon our customers or us. Additional legislation governing the acquisition, storage and transmission or other dissemination of health record information and other personal information, including social security numbers, has been proposed at both the state and federal level. Such legislation may require holders of such information to implement additional security, reporting or other measures that may require substantial expenditures and may impose liability for a failure to comply with such requirements. In many cases, such proposed state legislation includes provisions that are not preempted by HIPAA. There can be no assurance that changes to state or federal laws will not materially restrict the ability of providers to submit information from patient records using our products and services.	
 
 	•	 	Electronic Prescribing. The use of our software by physicians to perform a variety of functions, including electronic prescribing, electronic routing of prescriptions to pharmacies and dispensing, is governed by state and federal law. States have differing prescription format requirements, which we have programmed into our software. Many existing laws and regulations, when enacted, did not anticipate methods of e-commerce now being developed. While federal law and the laws of many states permit the electronic transmission of prescription orders, the laws of several states neither specifically permit nor specifically prohibit the practice. Given the rapid growth of electronic transactions in healthcare, and particularly the growth of the Internet, we expect the remaining states to directly address these areas with regulation in the near future. In addition, on November 4, 2005, the Department of Health and Human Services published its final “E-Prescribing and the Prescription Drug Program” regulations (E-Prescribing Regulations). These regulations are required by the Medicare Prescription	
 
19

Table of Contents
 	Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) and became effective beginning on January 1, 2006. The E-Prescribing Regulations consist of detailed standards and requirements, in addition to the HIPAA electronic transaction standards discussed above, for prescription and other information transmitted electronically in connection with a drug benefit covered by the MMA’s Prescription Drug Benefit. These standards cover not only transactions between prescribers and dispensers for prescriptions but also electronic eligibility and benefits inquiries and drug formulary and benefit coverage information. The standards apply to prescription drug plans participating in the MMA’s Prescription Drug Benefit. Aspects of our clinical products are affected by such regulation because of the need of our customers to comply, as discussed above. Compliance with these regulations could be burdensome, time-consuming and expensive. We also could become subject to future legislation and regulations concerning the development and marketing of healthcare software systems. For example, regulatory authorities such as the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services may impose functionality standards with regard to electronic prescribing and EHR technologies. These could increase the cost and time necessary to market new services and could affect us in other respects not presently foreseeable.	
 
 	•	 	Claims Transmission. Our system electronically transmits claims for prescription medications dispensed by physicians to patients’ payers for immediate approval and reimbursement. Federal law provides that it is both a civil and a criminal violation for any person to submit, or cause to be submitted, a claim to any payer, including, without limitation, Medicare, Medicaid and all private health plans and managed care plans, seeking payment for any services or products that overbills or bills for items that have not been provided to the patient. We have in place policies and procedures that we believe assure that all claims that are transmitted by our system are accurate and complete, provided that the information given to us by our customers is also accurate and complete. If, however, we do not follow those procedures and policies, or they are not sufficient to prevent inaccurate claims from being submitted, we could be subject to liability. As discussed above, the HIPAA Transaction Standards and the HIPAA Security Standards also affect our claims transmission services, since those services must be structured and provided in a way that supports our customers’ HIPAA compliance obligations.	
 
 	•	 	Medical Devices. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has promulgated a draft policy for the regulation of computer software products as medical devices under the 1976 Medical Device Amendments to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. To the extent that computer software is a medical device under the policy, we, as a manufacturer of such products, could be required, depending on the product, to register and list our products with the FDA; notify the FDA and demonstrate substantial equivalence to other products on the market before marketing such products; or obtain FDA approval by demonstrating safety and effectiveness before marketing a product. Depending on the intended use of a device, the FDA could require us to obtain extensive data from clinical studies to demonstrate safety or effectiveness or substantial equivalence. If the FDA requires this data, we would be required to obtain approval of an investigational device exemption before undertaking clinical trials. Clinical trials can take extended periods of time to complete. We cannot provide assurances that the FDA will approve or clear a device after the completion of such trials. In addition, these products would be subject to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act’s general controls, including those relating to good manufacturing practices and adverse experience reporting. Although it is not possible to anticipate the final form of the FDA’s policy with regard to computer software, we expect that the FDA is likely to become increasingly active in regulating computer software intended for use in healthcare settings regardless of whether the draft is finalized or changed. The FDA can impose extensive requirements governing pre- and post-market conditions like service investigation, approval, labeling and manufacturing. In addition, the FDA can impose extensive requirements governing development controls and quality assurance processes.	
 
 	•	 	e-Detailing. Our pharmaceutical and medical device clients use Physicians Interactive e-Detailing programs to provide physicians with valuable and up-to-date information about various medications and medical products, as well as to collect feedback from physician opinion leaders and other experts. Pharmaceutical marketing activities are subject to various regulatory and compliance initiatives,

Table of Contents
 	including an industry-sponsored ethics initiative developed by the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA Code) and the final Compliance Program Guidance for Pharmaceutical Manufacturers issued on April 28, 2003 by the HHS Office of Inspector General (OIG). Such initiatives, some of which are required and some of which are voluntary, articulate concerns, recommendations and standards concerning a variety of pharmaceutical product marketing activities and issues, including e-Detailing, kickbacks, discounts, switching arrangements, research/consulting/advisory payments, relationships with other healthcare providers, including physicians, and gifts/entertainment/other remuneration. Additionally, as a sender of electronic mail in connection with some of our educational programs, we are subject to the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 and other state and federal laws regulating senders of electronic mail for commercial purposes. We believe that our programs and activities comply with applicable laws and regulations and are consistent with PhRMA Code and OIG initiatives. However, if our physician educational programs were found to be conducted in a manner inconsistent with such laws, regulations or initiatives, or if we are required to materially change the way in which we do business in order to conform with such laws, regulations and initiatives, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.	
 
 	•	 	Licensure and Physician Dispensing. As a repackager and distributor of drugs, we are subject to regulation by and licensure with the FDA, the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and various state agencies that regulate wholesalers or distributors. Among the regulations applicable to our repackaging operation are the FDA’s “good manufacturing practices.” We are subject to periodic inspections of our facilities by regulatory authorities to confirm that we have policies and procedures in place in order to comply with applicable legal requirements. Because the FDA’s good manufacturing practices were designed to govern the manufacture, rather than the repackaging, of drugs, we face legal uncertainty concerning the application of some aspects of these regulations and of the standards that the FDA will enforce. If we do not maintain all necessary licenses, or the FDA decides to substantially modify the manner in which it has historically enforced its good manufacturing practice regulations against drug repackagers or the FDA or DEA finds any violations during one of their periodic inspections, we could be subject to liability, and our operations could be shut down.	
 
 	•	 	While physician dispensing of medications for profit is allowed in most states, it is limited in a few states. It is possible that certain states may enact further legislation or regulations prohibiting, restricting or further regulating physician dispensing. Similarly, while in a July 2002 Opinion the American Medical Association’s Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs (CEJA) provides, in relevant part, that “Physicians may dispense drugs within their office practices provided such dispensing primarily benefits the patient,” the American Medical Association has historically taken inconsistent positions on physician dispensing. Past reports of the CEJA have opposed the in-office sale of health-related products by physicians, and it is possible that the CEJA may in the future oppose the in-office sale of health-related products by physicians. Any such state legislative prohibitions or CEJA opposition of physician dispensing could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.	
 
 	•	 	Congress enacted significant prohibitions against physician self-referrals in the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993. This law, commonly referred to as “Stark II,” applies to physician dispensing of outpatient prescription drugs that are reimbursable by Medicare or Medicaid. Stark II, however, includes an exception for the provision of in-office ancillary services, including a physician’s dispensing of outpatient prescription drugs, provided that the physician meets specified requirements. We believe that the physicians who use our system or dispense drugs distributed by us are aware of these requirements, but we do not monitor their compliance and have no assurance that the physicians are in material compliance with Stark II. If it were determined that the physicians who use our system or dispense pharmaceuticals purchased from us were not in compliance with Stark II, it could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 	•	 	As a distributor of prescription drugs to physicians, we are subject to the federal anti-kickback statute, which applies to Medicare, Medicaid and other state and federal programs. The statute prohibits the solicitation, offer, payment or receipt of remuneration in return for referrals or the purchase, or in return for recommending or arranging for the referral or purchase, of goods, including drugs, covered by the programs. The anti-kickback law provides a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory “safe harbors” for particular types of transactions. We believe that our arrangements with our customers are in material compliance with the anti-kickback statute and relevant safe harbors. Many states have similar fraud and abuse laws, and we believe that we are in material compliance with those laws. If, however, it were determined that we, as a distributor of prescription drugs to physicians, were not in compliance with the federal anti-kickback statute, we could be subject to liability, and our operations could be curtailed. Moreover, if the activities of our customers or other entity with which we have a business relationship were found to constitute a violation of the federal anti-kickback law and we, as a result of the provision of products or services to such customer or entity, were found to have knowingly participated in such activities, we could be subject to sanction or liability under such laws, including civil and/or criminal penalties, as well as exclusion from government health programs. As a result of exclusion from government health programs, neither products nor services could be provided to any beneficiaries of any federal healthcare program.	
Increased government involvement in healthcare could adversely affect our business.
U.S. healthcare system reform under the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, and other initiatives at both the federal and state level, could increase government involvement in healthcare, lower reimbursement rates and otherwise change the business environment of our customers and the other entities with which we have a business relationship. While no federal price controls are included in the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act, any legislation that reduces physician incentives to dispense medications in their offices could adversely affect physician acceptance of our products. We cannot predict whether or when future healthcare reform initiatives at the federal or state level or other initiatives affecting our business will be proposed, enacted or implemented or what impact those initiatives may have on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Our customers and the other entities with which we have a business relationship could react to these initiatives and the uncertainty surrounding these proposals by curtailing or deferring investments, including those for our products and services. Additionally, government regulation could alter the clinical workflow of physicians, hospitals and other healthcare participants, thereby limiting the utility of our products and services to existing and potential customers and curtailing broad acceptance of our products and services. Further examples of government involvement could include requiring the standardization of technology relating to EHR’s, providing customers with incentives to adopt EHR solutions or developing a low-cost government sponsored EHR solution, such as VistA-Office EHR. In addition, the federal government and state governments, including Florida, have imposed or may in the future impose pedigree requirements for pharmaceutical distribution. Our medications business is required to comply with any current regulations relating to pharmaceutical distribution and will be required to comply with any future regulations and such compliance may impose additional costs on our business.
If the electronic healthcare information market fails to develop as quickly as expected, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
The electronic healthcare information market is in the early stages of development and is rapidly evolving. A number of market entrants have introduced or developed products and services that are competitive with one or more components of the solutions we offer. We expect that additional companies will continue to enter this market. In new and rapidly evolving industries, there is significant uncertainty and risk as to the demand for, and market acceptance of, recently introduced products and services. Because the markets for our products and services are new and evolving, we are not able to predict the size and growth rate of the markets with any certainty. We cannot assure you that markets for our products and services will develop or that, if they do, they

will be strong and continue to grow at a sufficient pace. If markets fail to develop, develop more slowly than expected or become saturated with competitors, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.
Consolidation in the healthcare industry could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Many healthcare industry participants are consolidating to create integrated healthcare delivery systems with greater market power. As provider networks and managed care organizations consolidate, thus decreasing the number of market participants, competition to provide products and services like ours will become more intense, and the importance of establishing relationships with key industry participants will become greater. These industry participants may try to use their market power to negotiate price reductions for our products and services. Further, consolidation of management and billing services through integrated delivery systems may decrease demand for our products. If we were forced to reduce our prices, our business would become less profitable unless we were able to achieve corresponding reductions in our expenses.
Risks Related to the A4 Acquisition
The A4 acquisition is one of the largest acquisitions we have achieved to date. We will face challenges integrating A4’s operations and technology and may not realize anticipated benefits.
The A4 acquisition is our largest acquisition to date. There is a risk that, due to the size of the A4 acquisition, we will be unable to integrate A4 into our operations as effectively as we have with prior acquisitions, which would result in fewer benefits to us from this acquisition than currently anticipated as well as increased costs. For example, the integration of A4’s operations will require implementation of appropriate operations, management and financial reporting systems and controls. We may experience difficulties in effectively implementing these and other systems, assimilating A4’s technology and operations and maintaining the customer base and goodwill of A4. To successfully integrate and fully benefit from A4’s technology, we must build sophisticated interfaces and successfully integrate A4’s practice management system. The integration of A4 will require the focused attention of our management team, including a significant commitment of their time and resources. The need for management to focus on integration matters could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If the integration is not successful, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We have assumed all of A4’s liabilities, including contingent liabilities. If these liabilities are greater than expected, or if there are unknown A4 obligations, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
As a result of the A4 acquisition, we have assumed all of A4’s liabilities, including contingent liabilities. We may learn additional information about A4’s business that adversely affects us, such as unknown liabilities, issues relating to internal controls over financial reporting that could affect our ability to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or issues that could affect our ability to comply with other applicable laws and regulatory requirements, including laws and regulations governing the healthcare industry. As a result, we cannot assure you that the A4 acquisition will be successful. Among other things, if A4’s liabilities are greater than expected, or if there are obligations of A4 of which we were not aware at the time of completion of the acquisition, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We have limited indemnification rights from the A4 shareholders with respect to liabilities of A4. If we are responsible for liabilities not covered by indemnification rights or substantially in excess of amounts covered through any indemnification rights, we could suffer severe consequences that would substantially reduce our revenues, earnings and cash flows.

Table of Contents
If we experience a higher than normal turnover rate for A4 employees, we may not be able to effectively integrate their operations and technology.
In order to successfully integrate A4’s operations and technology into our own, we will require the continued services of A4’s sales, software development and professional services employees. The pool of qualified personnel with experience working with or selling to acute and ambulatory care groups is limited. Competition for such qualified personnel can be intense, and we might not be successful in retaining A4’s employees. If we experience a higher than normal turnover rate for A4 employees, we may not be able to effectively integrate A4’s systems and operations.
We may fail to attract new customers or lose current customers as a result of the A4 acquisition.
The A4 acquisition may cause disruptions, including potential loss of customers and other business partners, in our or A4’s business, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We may experience difficulty in supporting and transitioning A4’s customers, and, consequentially, certain of our current or potential new customers may cancel or defer requests for our services. In addition, certain of A4’s healthcare technology solutions target markets in which we have limited direct prior experience, including the market for practice and care management solutions and offerings to hospitals and smaller physician practice groups. If we fail to attract new customers or generate additional business from our current customers, we may not achieve our planned growth.
If A4 has failed or fails to comply with existing laws, government regulations and industry initiatives applicable to its operations, we could be harmed.
As a participant in the highly regulated healthcare industry, A4’s operations, as well as those of its customers, are or may be subject to federal, state and local government regulation. If A4 has failed or fails to comply with healthcare laws and regulations, or A4’s products cannot be used by its customers in a manner that complies with healthcare laws and regulations, we could be subject to penalties for such violations and otherwise may be harmed.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
Because of certain features of our outstanding 3.50% convertible senior debentures and anti-takeover provisions under Delaware law and in our organizational documents, a takeover of us may be difficult, and you may be prevented from obtaining an optimal price for our shares of common stock in the event of a takeover of us.
We are required to increase the conversion rate on our 3.50% convertible senior debentures that are converted in connection with certain change of control transactions that occur on or prior to July 15, 2009, which effectively increases the cost of a takeover of the company. In addition, in the event of a change of control of the company, subject to certain exceptions, holders of the debentures have the right to require us to repurchase in cash all or any portion of their debentures. These features may in certain circumstances make more difficult or discourage such a takeover. Additionally, certain provisions of Delaware law and our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, and by-laws could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control of us. These provisions:
 
 	•	 	authorize the issuance of preferred stock that can be created and issued by our board of directors without prior stockholder approval to increase the number of outstanding shares and deter or prevent a takeover attempt;	
 
 	•	 	prohibit common stockholder action by written consent, thereby requiring all common stockholder actions to be taken at a meeting of our common stockholders;	
 
24

Table of Contents
 	•	 	prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise enable less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates;	
 
 	•	 	limit the ability of stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders;	
 
 	•	 	establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at stockholder meetings; and	
 
 	•	 	provide for a classified board of directors, expanding the time required to change the composition of a majority of directors.	
In addition, we are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us.
Future sales of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock that we may issue and our ability to raise funds in new securities offerings.
Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing trading prices of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or equity-related securities. As of March 10, 2006, we had approximately:
 
 	•	 	51,937,184 shares of common stock outstanding;	
 
 	•	 	3,333 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding warrants;	
 
 	•	 	8,017,804 shares of common stock reserved and available for issuance pursuant to stock options and other awards outstanding under our stock plans at a weighted average exercise price of $7.22 per share;	
 
 	•	 	752,857 additional shares of common stock reserved and available for issuance under our stock plans;	
 
 	•	 	395,000 shares of unvested restricted common stock to employees and directors; and	
 
 	•	 	7,329,424 shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon conversion of our outstanding 3.50% convertible senior debentures. The number of shares issuable upon conversion of these debentures is subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to anti-dilution provisions.	
On February 21, 2006, we entered into a purchase agreement with GE, IDX and IDX Investment Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of IDX (which entities we collectively refer to as the “GE Entities”), pursuant to which we agreed to repurchase from IDX 1,250,000 shares of our common stock. The repurchase of these shares closed on March 9, 2006. The terms of the purchase agreement also provide that the GE Entities will not sell any of the remaining shares of our common stock owned by them for 60 days starting on February 22, 2006, which was the date we priced on our public offering of stock, subject to certain exceptions. On March 10, 2006, IDX beneficially owned 5,827,138 shares of our common stock or approximately 11.2% of our outstanding shares. We are a party to a stock rights and restrictions agreement with IDX which may impose restrictions on the ability of the GE Entities to sell shares of our common stock after the expiration of the 60-day period described above and the manner of such future sales. However, the GE Entities retain the ability to sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock by the GE Entities in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the prevailing trading prices of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or equity related securities.
In connection with our acquisition strategy, we may issue shares of our common stock as consideration in other acquisition transactions. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that future sales of shares of common stock or the availability of shares of common stock for future sale will have on the trading price of our common stock.

Table of Contents
Our outstanding 3.50% convertible senior debentures are convertible at the option of the holders into shares of our common stock, subject to the certain conditions set forth in the indenture governing these debentures. Any shares of common stock issued on conversion of these debentures and subsequently sold will be freely tradable in the public markets without restriction. In addition, we will be required to repurchase these debentures following certain change in control events relating to us, and the holders of these debentures will have the option to require us to purchase all or a portion of their debentures on July 15, 2009, July 15, 2014 and July 15, 2019. The conversion of these debentures into common stock or the issuance of common stock to pay the purchase price of any such debentures could result in the issuance of a substantial number of shares of our common stock and substantial dilution to our stockholders.
Our issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect holders of our common stock and discourage a takeover.
Our board of directors is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock without any action on the part of our stockholders. Our board of directors also has the power, without stockholder approval, to set the terms of any series of preferred stock that may be issued, including voting rights (except that shares of preferred stock may not have more than one vote per share), dividend rights, preferences over our common stock with respect to dividends or in the event of a dissolution, liquidation or winding up and other terms. In the event that we issue preferred stock in the future that has preference over our common stock with respect to payment of dividends or upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, or if we issue preferred stock that is convertible into our common stock at greater than a one-to-one ratio, the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock or the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected. In addition, the ability of our board of directors to issue shares of preferred stock without any action on the part of our stockholders may impede a takeover of us and prevent a transaction favorable to the holders of our common stock.
Failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could have an adverse effect on our business and the trading price of our common stock.
If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, in accordance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock.
The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile.
The market price of our common stock is volatile and could fluctuate significantly in response to the factors described above and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
 
 	•	 	actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly operating results;	
 
 	•	 	announcements of technological innovations or new services or products by our competitors or us;	
 
 	•	 	changes in financial estimates by securities analysts;	
 
 	•	 	conditions and trends in the electronic healthcare information, Internet, e-commerce and pharmaceutical markets; and	
 
 	•	 	general market conditions and other factors.	
In addition, the stock markets, especially the Nasdaq National Market, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices of equity securities of many technology companies and Internet-related companies in particular. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to

operating performance. These broad market factors may materially affect the trading price of our common stock. General economic, political and market conditions such as recessions and interest rate fluctuations may also have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Volatility in the market price for our common stock may result in the filing of securities class action litigation.
Our quarterly operating results may vary.
Our quarterly operating results have varied in the past, and we expect that our quarterly operating results will continue to vary in future periods depending on a number of factors, some of which we have no control over, including customers’ budgetary constraints and internal acceptance procedures, seasonal variances in demand for our products and services, the sales, service and implementation cycles for our clinical software products and physician education products and services, potential downturns in the healthcare market and in economic conditions generally, and other factors described in this “Risk Factors” section. For instance, all other factors aside, sales of our prepackaged medications have historically been highest in the third and fourth quarters. Sales of our software products have also historically been highest in the fourth quarter.
We base our expense levels in part upon our expectations concerning future revenue, and these expense levels are relatively fixed in the short term. If we have lower revenue than expected, we may not be able to reduce our spending in the short term in response. Any shortfall in revenue would have a direct impact on our results of operations. In addition, our product sales cycle for larger sales is lengthy and unpredictable, making it difficult to estimate our future bookings for any given period. If we do not achieve projected booking targets for a given period, securities analysts may change their recommendations on our common stock. For these and other reasons, we may not meet the earnings estimates of securities analysts or investors, and our stock price could suffer.
Conversion of the 3.50% convertible senior debentures will dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders, including holders who had previously converted their debentures.
The conversion of some or all of our 3.50% convertible senior debentures will dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders. Any sales in the public market of the common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. In addition, the existence of the debentures may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the debentures could depress the price of our common stock.

As a result of the A4 acquisition on March 2, 2006, we own the former corporate headquarters of A4 in Cary, North Carolina, consisting of approximately 55,000 square feet. We also lease an approximately 7,400 square foot warehouse facility in Morrisville, North Carolina, which expires in September 2010, approximately 4,900 square feet of office space in Austin, Texas under a lease that expires in January 2008, approximately 1,800 square feet of office space in Round Rock, Texas under a lease that expires in October 2007, approximately 15,200 square feet of office space in Nashua, New Hampshire under a lease that expires in October 2008 and approximately 3,000 square feet of office space in Novi, Michigan under a lease that expires in August 2007. We believe that our facilities are adequate for our current operations.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Beginning in 1999, we became a defendant in various multi-defendant lawsuits involving the manufacture and sale of dexfenfluramine, fenfluramine and phentermine. The majority of these suits were filed in state courts in Texas. The plaintiffs in these cases claim injury as a result of ingesting a combination of these weight-loss drugs. In each of these suits, we are one of many defendants, including manufacturers and other distributors of these drugs. We do not believe we have significant liability incident to the distribution or repackaging of these drugs, and we have tendered defense of these lawsuits to our insurance carrier for handling. In addition, we have been indemnified by the primary manufacturer of the drugs at issue in these cases. We believe that it is unlikely that we are responsible for the distribution of the drugs at issue in many of these cases. The lawsuits are in various stages of litigation, and it is too early to determine what, if any, liability we will have with respect to the claims made in these lawsuits. If our insurance coverage and our indemnity from the drug manufacturer is inadequate to satisfy any resulting liability, we will have to defend these lawsuits and be responsible for the damages, if any, that we suffer as a result of these lawsuits. We do not believe that the outcome of these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
In addition, we are involved in litigation incidental to our respective businesses from time to time. We are not currently involved in any litigation in which we believe an adverse outcome would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.

(1)	On August 1, 2003, Allscripts acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of AIC. On August 8, 2003, Allscripts acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of RxCentric.	
(2)	In July 2001, Allscripts announced and began implementation of a restructuring plan to realign its organization, prioritize its initiatives around high-growth areas of its business, focus on profitability, reduce operating expenses, and focus sales and service efforts on larger physician practices, academic medical centers, and integrated delivery networks. During 2001, Allscripts recorded charges of $1,053 related to the termination of certain agreements and non-cancelable leases, $4,266 related to the termination of unprofitable customer contracts, and $3,317 related to severance and related benefits for workforce reduction. During 2002, Allscripts recorded $414 for severance costs in connection with the departure of the former chief financial officer and an additional charge of $186 for remaining workforce reductions.	
(3)	On January 8, 2001, Allscripts acquired ChannelHealth, Inc. (“ChannelHealth”), a business unit of IDX. In addition to the acquisition, Allscripts and IDX entered into a 10-year strategic alliance, which was amended on January 18, 2006.	
(4)	On December 30, 2005, our Board of Directors approved a plan to accelerate vesting of certain options to purchase approximately 1,291 shares of our common stock awarded under our stock plans that were due to fully vest by August 1, 2007. The exercise prices of the affected stock options range from $2.77 to $10.67 per share. As a result of the acceleration, we recognized an additional non-cash, non-recurring stock-based compensation expense of approximately $518. Management believes that the presentation of adjusted net income per share—diluted is useful to provide investors with a more direct comparison of changes in our results of operations over the periods shown without the effect of this non-operating, non-recurring charge. A reconciliation of adjusted net income per share—diluted to net income per share—diluted is as follows:

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion and analysis together with “Selected Financial Data” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. You should read the cautionary statements made in this report as applying to related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this report. Our actual results may be materially different from the results we discuss in the forward-looking statements due to certain factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” and other sections of this report.
Overview
Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. is a leading provider of clinical software, connectivity and information solutions that physicians use to improve the quality of healthcare. Our business groups provide innovative solutions that inform physicians with just right, just in time information, connect physicians to each other and to the entire community of care, and transform healthcare, improving both the quality and efficiency of care. We provide clinical software applications, including EHR, e-prescribing and document imaging solutions through our Clinical Solutions Group. Additionally, we provide clinical education and information solutions for physicians and patients through our Physicians Interactive Group, along with physician-patient connectivity solutions through our partnership with Medem. We also provide prepackaged medication fulfillment services through our Medication Services Group.
We report our financial results utilizing three business segments: software and related services segment; information services segment; and prepackaged medications segment. The software and related services segment consists of clinical software solutions offered by our Clinical Solutions Group, such as TouchWorks and TouchScript offerings. TouchWorks is an award-winning EHR solution designed to enhance physician productivity using Tablet PCs, wireless handheld devices, or a desktop workstation for the purpose of automating the most common physician activities, including prescribing, dictating, ordering lab tests and viewing results, documenting clinical encounters, and capturing charges, among others. TouchWorks has the functionality to handle the complexities of large physician practices, while also addressing the needs of mid-sized physician practice groups. TouchScript is an e-prescribing solution that physicians can access securely via the Internet to quickly, safely and securely prescribe medications, check for drug interactions, access medication histories, review drug reference information, and send prescriptions directly to a pharmacy or mail order facility. TouchScript can be a starting point for medical groups to seamlessly transition over time to a complete EHR.
On March 2, 2006, we completed our acquisition of A4, which will allow us to reach new markets such as the small and mid-sized physician practice groups that are seeking either a practice management system or a combined EHR and practice management solution and hospitals that are seeking EDIS and care management solutions. The A4 acquisition will also enable us to extend our product offerings by allowing us to independently offer an integrated solution that combines our EHR solution with A4’s practice management system. We intend to classify A4’s operating results in the software and related services segment as of the date of acquisition.
In our information services segment, our key product offerings are Physicians Interactive, Patients Interactive and Enterprise eMarketing Solution, which we recently introduced. Physicians Interactive is a web-based solution that connects physicians with pharmaceutical companies, medical device manufacturers, and biotech companies. One element of this solution, often referred to as e-Detailing, uses interactive sessions to provide clinical education and information to physicians about medical products and disease states, which promotes more informed decision-making, increased efficiency, and ultimately higher quality patient care. Other elements of the Physicians Interactive platform include e-surveys, clinical updates, resource centers, key opinion leader materials, and other physician relationship management services. Patients Interactive is a web-based solution that enables physician-directed patient education, promoting medication adherence and compliance, and disease management. Through our partnership with Medem, our Patients Interactive and TouchWorks solutions

also provide physicians and patients with a tool for secure online consultations, automated disease management services and personal health records. Enterprise eMarketing Solution provides pharmaceutical companies with a turnkey system to build an electronic dialogue and manage ongoing relationships with physicians. The Enterprise eMarketing solution incorporates a full suite of online tools, including campaign management, physician communication and education, sample and rep requests, as well as e-Detailing opportunities.
Finally, our prepackaged medications segment is comprised of our Medication Services Group. This group provides point-of-care medication management and medical supply services and solutions for physicians and other healthcare providers.
The composition of our revenue by segment is as follows:

Cost of revenue for the software and related services segment consists primarily of salaries, bonuses and benefits of our billable professionals, third party software costs, hardware costs, capitalized software amortization and other direct engagement costs. Cost of revenue for the prepackaged medications segment consists primarily of the cost of the medications, cost of salaries, bonuses and benefits for repackaging personnel, shipping costs, repackaging facility costs and other costs. Cost of revenue for the information services segment consists primarily of salaries, bonuses and benefits of our program management and program development personnel, third-party program development costs, costs to recruit physicians and other program management costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, bonuses and benefits for management and support personnel, commissions, stock-based compensation expense, facilities costs, depreciation and amortization, general operating expenses, non-capitalizable product development expenses, and selling and marketing expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for each segment consist of expenses directly related to that segment.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition
Revenue from software licensing arrangements where the service element is considered essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement is accounted for under the provisions of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position (“SOP”) 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type Contracts and Certain Production-Type Contracts” (“SOP 81-1”). SOP 81-1 requires that management make estimates of the total value of the contract as well as the percentage of the contract that has been completed as of the end of each period. Changes in circumstances may cause management’s estimates of the value of the contract or the effort required to complete the services to change. The changes may cause us to adjust upward or downward the amount of revenue recognized or recognize less revenue than anticipated through the completion of the project.
Certain of our customer arrangements in our software and services segment and information services segment encompass multiple deliverables. We account for these arrangements in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”). If the deliverables meet the criteria in EITF 00-21, the deliverables are separated into separate units of accounting and revenue is allocated to the deliverables based on their relative fair values. The criteria specified in EITF 00-21 are that the delivered item has value to the customer on a stand-alone basis, there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered item, and if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item, delivery or performance of the undelivered item is considered probable and substantially in the control of the vendor. Applicable revenue recognition criteria is considered separately for each separate unit of accounting. Management applies judgment to ensure appropriate application of EITF 00-21, including value allocation among multiple deliverables, determination of whether undelivered elements are essential to the functionality of delivered elements and timing of revenue recognition, among others. For those arrangements where the deliverables do not qualify as a separate unit of accounting, revenue from all deliverables are treated as one accounting unit and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the arrangement. Changes in circumstances and customer data may affect management’s analysis of EITF 00-21 criteria, which may cause us to adjust upward or downward the amount of revenue recognized under the arrangement. The adoption of EITF 00-21 during the second half of 2003 did not have a significant effect on our revenue recognition due to the methodology utilized prior to EITF 00-21 having very similar accounting treatment for multiple deliverables.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable
We rely on estimates to determine our bad debt expense and the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts. These estimates are based on our historical experience and the industry in which we operate. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances and related bad debt expense may be required.
Inventories
We adjust the value of our inventory downward for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual future demand or market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.
Investment in Promissory Note and Minority Interest
Allscripts holds an investment in Medem totaling $2,600 as of December 31, 2005. The investment has been accounted for under the cost basis of accounting and is recorded in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The investment consists of a $2,100 note receivable from and a $500 minority interest in Medem. The fair value of the investment is dependent upon the actual financial performance of Medem, its market value, and the volatility inherent in the external markets for this type of investment. In assessing potential impairment of the investment, we consider these factors, as well as the forecasted financial performance of Medem, liquidation preference value of the stock that we hold, and estimated potential for investment recovery. If any of these factors indicate that the investment has become other-than-temporarily impaired, we may have to record an impairment charge.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets
We evaluate the value of intangible assets based upon the present value of the future economic benefits expected to be derived from the assets. We assess the impairment of the identifiable intangibles and goodwill annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. If we determine that the value of the intangible assets and goodwill may not be recoverable from future cash flows, a write-down of the value of the asset may be required.
We estimate the useful lives of our intangible assets and amortize the value over that estimated life. If the actual useful life is shorter than our estimated useful life, we will amortize the remaining book value over the remaining useful life or the asset may be deemed to be impaired and, accordingly, a write-down of the value of the asset may be required.
Software Capitalization
The carrying value of capitalized software is dependent upon the ability to recover its value through future revenue from the sale of the software. If we determine in the future that the value of the capitalized software could not be recovered, a write-down of the value of the capitalized software to its recoverable value may be required.
We estimate the useful life of our capitalized software and amortize the value over that estimated life. If the actual useful life is shorter than our estimated useful life, we will amortize the remaining book value over the remaining useful life or the asset may be deemed to be impaired and, accordingly, a write-down of the value of the asset may be required.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets or liabilities are established for temporary differences between financial and tax reporting bases and for tax carryforward items and are subsequently adjusted to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance is established for any deferred tax asset for which realization is not likely.

Year Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004
Software and Related Services
Software and related services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased 47.7%, or $21,045, from $44,121 in 2004 to $65,166 in 2005. The increase is attributable to an increase in our installed customer base, an increase in hardware revenue as a result of obtaining certain large contracts in 2005 and an increase in maintenance revenue, as customers typically continue maintenance with us. We also experienced a number of existing customers converting their subscription contracts into licenses in 2005, and certain existing customers purchasing additional software licenses to resell to local and regional small physician groups.
Gross profit for software and related services for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased 47.4%, or $13,396, from $28,263 in 2004 to $41,659 in 2005. The increase in gross profit is a result of an increase in the overall installed customer base, an increase in hardware revenue, and an increase in maintenance revenue, combined with the continued focus in reducing our costs of implementation and training, and due to a decrease in royalties as a percent of revenue. In addition, the improvement in gross profit during 2005 reflects an increase in the number of customers converting subscription contracts to licenses and the recognition of higher margin revenue associated with add-on license sales to existing customers, including licenses purchased by such customers for resale to external local and regional physician groups. Gross profit for software and related services as a percentage of revenue decreased from 64.1% in 2004 to 63.9% in 2005. This slight decrease is due to a larger percentage of our 2005 revenue being comprised of lower margin hardware sales and due to the recognition of additional capitalized software amortization as a percentage of 2005 revenue.
Operating expenses for software and related services for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased 18.5%, or $3,624, from $19,630 in 2004 to $23,254 in 2005. The increase is primarily the result of an increase in compensation and commissions expense, as we expanded our sales and marketing resources in 2005 to meet increased demand for our EHR solutions, an increase in bad debt expense, which is attributable to our increase in revenue, and due to lower capitalized software costs. We capitalized $2,796 and $3,949 of software development costs for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 86, “Accounting for Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed.” These increases were offset by lower non-capitalizable research and development expense in 2005 compared to 2004.
Prepackaged Medications
Prepackaged medications revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased 2.0%, or $876, from $44,733 in 2004 to $45,609 in 2005. The increase is primarily due to an increase in revenue from wholesale customers from $7,751 in 2004 compared to $13,202 in 2005, as a result of fulfilling available demand, and due to the inclusion of flu vaccine sales in the fourth quarter of 2005, that were not available to us in the fourth quarter of 2004 because of the lack of supply in the United States as a result of manufacturing problems by one of the main flu vaccine suppliers. These increases were offset by lost sales of COX-2 inhibitors that resulted from the Vioxx recall announced on September 30, 2004 and lost sales as a result of Hurricane Katrina.
Gross profit for prepackaged medications for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased 15.9%, or $1,426, from $8,989 in 2004 to $7,563 in 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased from 20.1% in 2004 to 16.6% in 2005. The decrease in both gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenue is due to an overall reduction in the volume of prepackaged medications sold on a year over year basis and an increase in lower margin revenue to wholesale customers.
Operating expenses for prepackaged medications for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased $112, or 6.5%, from $1,714 in 2004 to $1,826 in 2005. The increase is primarily due to an increase in sales and marketing headcount and related salary and benefits.

Information Services
Information services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased 17.8%, or $2,127, from $11,916 in 2004 to $9,789 in 2005. The decrease is due to a decline in the number of e-detailing sessions completed during 2005 compared to 2004. The decrease in e-detailing sessions reflects the challenging sales environment experienced in 2004 as a result of the Office of Inspector General highlighting certain issues regarding physician marketing activities by pharmaceutical manufacturers in 2003 and, in some cases, customer cancellations of second and third program waves of a contract. The decrease was offset by revenue recognized from program early termination fees, accelerated development revenue on cancelled programs, and revenue recorded from the development and hosting of an e-marketing platform solution.
Gross profit for information services increased 4.8%, or $257, from $5,396 in 2004 to $5,653 in 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased from 45.3% in 2004 to 57.7% in 2005. The increases in both gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenue are primarily due to the recognition of additional program early termination fees, the recognition of development revenue on cancelled programs, lower certificate reward redemption rate estimates and revenue from certain higher-margin programs, offset by a lower number of e-detailing programs completed in 2005 compared to 2004.
Operating expenses for information services decreased 7.4%, or $232, from $3,142 in 2004 to $2,910 in 2005. The decrease is primarily the result of lower marketing expenditures, a higher level of capitalizable research and development efforts and lower commission expense, which is reflective of the revenue decrease in the information services segment.
Unallocated Corporate Expenses
Unallocated corporate expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased 18.4%, or $2,743, from $14,919 in 2004 to $17,662 in 2005. The increase is due to an overall increase in corporate salaries expense, which is reflective of an increase in headcount in order to support the growth of our business, standard salary increases, additional marketing expenses and information system consulting expenses related to improvements in our operating systems, offset by a decrease in bad debt expense due to the ability to collect on certain previously determined doubtful accounts. The results of 2005 also reflect a $518 non-cash, stock-based compensation charge in the fourth quarter of 2005 related to the accelerated vesting of certain options. In addition, 2004 results reflect a $400 legal settlement received in first quarter of 2004, which was offset against corporate expenses.
Interest Income
Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased 146.4%, or $2,453, from $1,675 in 2004 to $4,128 in 2005. The increase is primarily related to interest income earned for the full year of 2005 on the net proceeds received from the issuance of our Senior Convertible Debentures (“Notes”) completed in July 2004 and due to positive cash flow generated in 2005 which resulted in additional investment purchases, as well as more favorable interest rates experienced in 2005 than in 2004. Total net proceeds received from the 2004 offering amounted to $79,612, offset by $11,250, which we used for the repurchase of approximately 1,399 shares of our common stock.
Interest Expense
We incurred $3,516 and $1,717 of interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The increase in interest expense is the result of our Notes being outstanding for the full year of 2005 compared to 2004. In connection with the issuance, we incurred $2,888 of debt issuance costs. Interest expense for both periods includes debt issuance cost amortization expense of $628 and $313 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Income Taxes
No tax provision or tax benefit for income taxes was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2005 or 2004 due to the fact that any current year income tax liability would be offset by the net operating loss carryforward, which resulted from prior year losses.
Year Ended December 31, 2004 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2003
Software and Related Services
Software and related services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 increased 55.5%, or $15,755, from $28,366 in 2003 to $44,121 in 2004. The increase reflects the implementation of our integrated content and clinical solution products to new customers during 2004, as well as the add-on of additional software and services to our existing customers. The increase in revenue is also reflective of an increase in the average contract size for our EHR solutions during 2004 and due to a full year of revenue in 2004 from AIC, which we acquired in August 2003.
Gross profit for software and related services for the year ended December 31, 2004 increased 97.4%, or $13,947, from $14,316 in 2003 to $28,263 in 2004. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 64.1% in 2004 from 50.5% in 2003. The improvement in both gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenue in 2004 resulted from the overall increase in revenue in 2004, the full year effect of AIC’s results of operations in 2004, combined with our ongoing concentrated efforts to reduce our costs of implementation, training, and support. These improvements in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenue were partially offset by an increase in the amortization of capitalized software.
Operating expenses for software and related services for the year ended December 31, 2004 increased 11.1%, or $1,964, from $17,666 in 2003 to $19,630 in 2004. The increase in operating expenses in 2004 was primarily the result of having AIC reflected in operations for the full year. The increase was offset by an increase in capitalized development costs. All development costs are capitalized pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed.” In 2004 and 2003, we capitalized development costs of $3,949 and $2,400, respectively.
Prepackaged Medications
Prepackaged medications revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 decreased by 3.1%, or $1,439, from $46,172 in 2003 to $44,733 in 2004. The decrease in revenue is due to a change in product mix from more expensive brand medications to generic brand medications as a result of new generic vendor product offerings for 2004. It also is attributable to a decrease in the overall customer base as a result of competitive factors and trends experienced in the repackaging marketplace, as well as the impact of the Vioxx recall announced on September 30, 2004, which negatively affected revenue by approximately $716 in 2004. This decrease in revenue was offset by an increase in revenue to wholesale customers from $3,114 in 2003 to $7,751 in 2004.
Gross profit for the prepackaged medications segment for the year ended December 31, 2004 decreased by 8.9%, or $880, from $9,869 in 2003 to $8,989 in 2004. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased to 20.1% in 2004 from 21.4% in 2003. The decrease in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenue in 2004 is due primarily to a change in the mix of revenue, reflecting an increase in bulk sales to wholesale customers, which have a significantly lower gross margin than sales of prepackaged medications to our traditional physician customers. Gross profit for prepackaged medications excluding bulk sales to wholesale customers as a percentage of revenue was 23.7% and 22.7% for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
Operating expenses for prepackaged medications for the year ended December 31, 2004 decreased by $111, or 6.1%, from $1,825 in 2003 to $1,714 in 2004. This decrease was primarily due to a reduction in headcount in the sales and services department.

Information Services
Information services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 increased by 5.4%, or $613, from $11,303 in 2003 to $11,916 in 2004. The increase in information services revenue was primarily due to an increase in the number of e-detailing programs completed on a year-over-year basis, an increase in transaction revenue, and the revenue contribution of RxCentric, which was acquired in August 2003. Such increases were partially offset by pricing discounts that were given to our large domestic pharmaceutical customers and by a challenging sales environment, resulting from issues raised in 2003 by the Office of Inspector General (“OIG”) regarding physician marketing activities by pharmaceutical manufacturers.
Gross profit for the information services segment for the year ended December 31, 2004 decreased by 16.8%, or $1,091, from $6,487 in 2003 to $5,396 in 2004. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased to 45.3% in 2004 from 57.4% in 2003. The decrease in both gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenue is the result of a challenging sales environment as discussed above and a change in product mix as a result of the acquisition of RxCentric, whose products have a lower margin than the historical PI business contracts. In addition, the adoption of EITF No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” resulted in a decrease in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of revenue due to transitional timing differences on the recognition of revenue for 2004 compared to 2003 when EITF No. 00-21 was not effective.
Operating expenses for information services for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $3,142, compared to $2,977 in 2003. The $165, or 5.5% increase was primarily due to the addition of operating expenses from our RxCentric acquisition.
Corporate
Unallocated corporate expenses were $14,919 and $14,541 for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The $378, or 2.6% increase was due primarily to an increase in intangible amortization expense of $801 in 2004 when compared to 2003 due to the AIC and RxCentric acquisitions and an increase in overall corporate salary expense due to an increase in headcount. These additional costs of 2004 were partially offset by a decrease in depreciation expense as a result of fixed assets that became fully depreciated in 2004 and due to a decrease in the expense recorded for sales and use tax considerations in 2004 compared to 2003.
Interest Income
Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2004 increased $291, or 21.0%, from $1,384 in 2003 to $1,675 in 2004. The increase is primarily related to interest income earned on the net proceeds received from the issuance of our Notes completed in July 2004. Total net proceeds of $79,612 were offset by $11,250, which we used to repurchase approximately 1,399 shares of our common stock.
Interest Expense
We incurred $1,717 of interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 primarily related to the issuance of our Notes in July 2004. In connection with the issuance, we incurred $2,888 of debt issuance costs. The interest expense for 2004 includes amortization expense on the debt issuance costs of $313. We did not incur any interest expense or amortization of debt issuance costs in 2003 and 2002.
Income Taxes
No tax provision or tax benefit for income taxes was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2004 or 2003 due to the fact that any current year income tax liability would be offset by the net operating loss carryforward, which resulted from prior year losses.

Our quarterly gross profits improved during 2005 compared to 2004 primarily due to the growth in our higher margin software and related services revenue, combined with the reduction of related costs of implementation, training, and royalties as a percent of revenue. The gross margin improvements during 2005 were partially offset by an increase in the quarterly amortization of capitalized software in 2005 compared to 2004 and the increase in lower margin wholesale revenue in 2005 compared to 2004 in our prepackaged medications segment.
Starting in the third quarter of 2005, we incurred stock-based compensation expense related to the issuance of restricted stock. In the fourth quarter of 2005, we incurred a $518 (approximately $0.01 per share) non-cash,

Table of Contents
stock-based compensation charge related to the accelerated vesting of certain options. We incurred interest expense starting in the second half of 2004 due to the issuance of the Notes. The proceeds from the Notes also attributed to the increase in interest income and interest expense in the second half of 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2005 and 2004, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $146,063 and $128,239, respectively. The increase of $17,824 is primarily due to $16,507 in net cash provided by operations and $9,482 of proceeds received from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by the payment of $1,716 in purchase price holdback obligations related to the acquisition of AIC, additional funding of $1,050 to Medem, $3,186 in capitalized software and website development costs, and $1,958 in capital expenditures.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $16,507 for the year ended December 31, 2005, which was primarily due to net income of $9,710, adjusted for non-cash reconciling items of $7,736, an increase in accounts payable and accruals of $5,987, offset by payments of interest on our Notes totaling $2,960 and an increase in accounts receivable of $8,402, as a result of higher sales volume experienced during 2005 compared to 2004.
Our working capital increased by $78,403 during the year ended December 31, 2005 from $34,914 at December 31, 2004 to $113,317 at December 31, 2005. The increase is mainly due to an increase in our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term marketable securities as a result of positive cash inflow from operating activities, as well as a change in the mix of our marketable securities portfolio from long-term marketable securities to short-term marketable securities, which was done in anticipation of the A4 acquisition. At December 31, 2005, we had an accumulated deficit of $545,700 compared to $555,410 at December 31, 2004.
Future Capital Requirements
At December 31, 2005, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $146,063. On March 2, 2006, we acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in A4 for approximately $283,775, which is subject to a working capital adjustment as defined in the Merger Agreement (estimated to be an additional payment of $11,400 as of February 28, 2006), of which $215,000 was paid in cash and approximately $68,775 was paid through the issuance of 3,500 shares of our common stock (based on the last reported sale price of $19.65 per share of our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market (“Nasdaq”) on March 2, 2006). The cash component of the A4 purchase price was partially funded through the completion of our public offering of 8,395 shares of our common stock on February 28, 2006, which generated approximately $140,711 in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses. All of the proceeds received from the sale of common stock were used to fund the acquisition of A4.
On March 9, 2006, we repurchased 1,250 shares of our common stock from IDX. We paid approximately $21,078 for the shares, which is based on the February 22, 2006 public offering price of $17.75 and after deducting a standard underwriting discount and commission. On February 7, 2006, we also funded an additional convertible secured promissory note from Medem in a principal amount of $500 under a contract signed in November 2005.
We believe that our cash flow from operations in 2006 and our remaining net cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our working capital, capital expenditures, and contractual obligations and investment needs of our current business for the next twelve months. However, we cannot provide assurance that our actual cash requirements will not be greater than we currently expect. We will, from time to time, consider the acquisition of, or investment in, complementary businesses, products, services and technologies, which might impact our liquidity requirements or cause us to issue additional equity or debt securities.

Table of Contents
If sources of liquidity are not available or if we cannot generate sufficient cash flow from operations in 2006, we might be required to obtain additional sources of funds through additional operating improvements, capital market transactions, asset sales or financing from third parties, or a combination thereof. We cannot provide assurance that these additional sources of funds will be available or, if available, would have reasonable terms.
Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have various contractual obligations, which are recorded as liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. Other items, such as operating lease contract obligations are not recognized as liabilities in our consolidated financial statements but are required to be disclosed.
The following table summarizes our significant contractual obligations as of December 31, 2005 and those known through the date of this report and the effect such obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash in future periods assuming all obligations reach maturity:

*	Indicates a contractual obligation as of December 31, 2005.	
On March 2, 2006, we acquired all of the outstanding equity interests in A4 for approximately $283,775 which is subject to a working capital adjustment as defined in the Merger Agreement (estimated to be an additional payment of $11,400 as of February 28, 2006), of which $215,000 was paid in cash and approximately $68,775 was paid through the issuance of 3,500 shares of our common stock (based on the last reported sale price of $19.65 per share of our common stock on the Nasdaq on March 2, 2006). The cash component of the A4 purchase price was partially funded through the completion of our public offering of 8,395 shares of our common stock on February 28, 2006, which generated approximately $140,711 in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses. As a result of the A4 acquisition, we incurred investment banking fees, a loan commitment fee for securing bridge financing, legal, accounting, and other deal related obligations of approximately $4,000 that will be paid in 2006.
In connection with the A4 acquisition, we assumed certain commitments and contractual obligations, including operating leases, a note payable and a purchase commitment to purchase perpetual software licenses. We anticipate total obligations under these contracts approximate $4,800 to $5,000 to be paid over the next ten years. These obligations are not included in the table above.

On March 9, 2006, we repurchased 1,250 shares of our common stock from IDX. We paid $21,078, which is based on 95% of the February 22, 2006 public offering price of $17.75 and after deducting a standard underwriting discount and commission. On February 7, 2006, we funded an additional convertible note from Medem in a principal amount of $500 under a contract signed in November 2005.
In July 2004, we completed the private placement of our Notes and are obligated to pay approximately $1,444 in interest payments every six months under the Notes, payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year. These Notes can be converted, in certain circumstances, into approximately 7,300 shares of common stock based upon a conversion price of approximately $11.26 per share, subject to adjustment for certain events. The Notes were convertible in the third and fourth quarter of 2005, however, cease to be convertible beginning on January 1, 2006 by virtue of the last reported sale price for Allscripts’ common stock not having exceeded $14.63 for twenty consecutive days in the thirty-day period prior to December 31, 2005. No notes were converted during the period the Notes were convertible. The timing of our obligation on the Notes may change as it relates to funding interest payments and making a principal payment on the Notes based on whether the holders elect to convert the Notes. In addition, Allscripts may redeem some or all of the Notes for cash any time on or after July 20, 2009 at the Notes’ full principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Holders of the Notes may require Allscripts to repurchase some or all of the Notes on July 15, 2009, 2014 and 2019 or, subject to certain exceptions, upon a change of control of Allscripts.
Our AIC acquisition payment obligation consists of $84 as of December 31, 2005. The original AIC acquisition holdback provision amounted to $1,800. In the first half of 2005, we paid $1,763 of the holdback provision, which included $47 of accrued interest. The remaining payment of $84 will occur upon the receipt of the required acknowledgement from the AIC stockholders.
In connection with the corporate facilities lease agreement, Allscripts has provided to the lessor an unconditional irrevocable letter of credit in favor of the lessor in the amount of $500 as security for the full and prompt performance by Allscripts under the lease agreement. The letter of credit may be drawn upon by the lessor and retained, used or applied by lessor for the purpose of curing any monetary default or defaults of Allscripts under the lease. The letter of credit provides for an expiration date of one year from the commencement date of the lease, and will automatically extend for additional successive one-year periods through the term of the lease. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, no amounts had been drawn on the letter of credit.
We have other letters of credit as security for full and prompt performance under various contractual arrangements totaling $125. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, no amounts had been drawn on the letters of credit.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“FAS 123(R)”). This statement requires that the compensation cost relating to share based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Compensation cost is to be measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity-based compensation awards issued as of the grant date. The related compensation expense will be based on the estimated number of awards expected to vest and will be recognized over the requisite service period (often the vesting period) for each grant. The statement requires the use of assumptions and judgments about future events and some of the inputs to the valuation models will require considerable judgment by management. FAS 123(R) replaces FAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. Allscripts continued to apply APB 25 to equity-based compensation awards through December 31, 2005 and will adopt FAS 123(R) as of January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective transition method. Allscripts estimates the non-cash compensation charge for unvested options as of December 31, 2005 to be approximately $450 for 2006.
In May 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“FAS 154”). FAS 154 requires restatement of prior period financial statements for changes in accounting principle, unless it is

impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. Also, FAS 154 requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change. FAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Allscripts does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2005, EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 05-6, “Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements Purchased after Lease Inception or Acquired in a Business Combination” (“EITF 05-6”). This guidance requires that leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or purchased subsequent to the inception of a lease be amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the assets or a term that includes required lease periods and renewals that are reasonably assured at the date of the business combination or purchase. This guidance is applicable only to leasehold improvements that are purchased or acquired in reporting periods beginning after June 29, 2005. Allscripts is evaluating this EITF as it relates to leasehold improvements acquired in the A4 acquisition completed on March 2, 2006.
In November 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 115-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments” (“FSP 115-1”). FSP 115-1 provides additional guidance on when an investment in a debt or equity security should be considered impaired and when that impairment should be considered other-than-temporary and recognized as a loss in earnings. Specifically, the guidance clarifies that an investor should recognize an impairment loss no later than when the impairment is deemed other-than-temporary, even if a decision to sell has not been made. FSP 115-1 also requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. Allscripts does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk (Dollars in thousands)
As of December 31, 2005, we did not own any derivative financial instruments, but we were exposed to market risks, primarily changes in U.S. interest rates. Our Notes bear a fixed interest rate, and accordingly, the fair market value of the debt is sensitive to changes in interest rates. We have no cash flow or earnings exposure due to market interest rate changes for our fixed debt obligation.
As of December 31, 2005, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities in financial instruments of $146,063. Declines in interest rates over time will reduce our interest income from our investments. Based upon our balance of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of December 31, 2005, a decrease in interest rates of 1.0% would cause a corresponding decrease in our annual interest income by approximately $1,461.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc.:
We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A that Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) (a Delaware Corporation) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, management’s assessment that Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on COSO. Also in our opinion, Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the balance sheets of Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the years then ended and our report dated March 15, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

ALLSCRIPTS HEALTHCARE SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollar and share amounts in thousands, except per-share amounts)
1. Nature of Business
Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (“Allscripts”) is a leading provider of clinical software, connectivity and information solutions that physicians use to improve the quality of healthcare. Our business groups provide innovative solutions that inform physicians with just right, just in time information, connect physicians to each other and to the entire community of care, and transform healthcare, improving both the quality and efficiency of care. We provide clinical software applications, including electronic health record (“EHR”), electronic prescribing (“e-prescribing”) and document imaging solutions through our Clinical Solutions Group. Additionally, we provide clinical education and information solutions for physicians and patients through our Physicians Interactive Group, along with physician-patient connectivity solutions through our partnership with Medem, Inc. (“Medem”). We also provide prepackaged medication fulfillment services through our Medication Services Group.
We report our financial results utilizing three business segments: software and related services segment; information services segment; and prepackaged medications segment. The software and related services segment consists of clinical software solutions offered by our Clinical Solutions Group, such as TouchWorks and TouchScript offerings. TouchWorks is an award-winning EHR solution designed to enhance physician productivity using Tablet PCs, wireless handheld devices, or a desktop workstation for the purpose of automating the most common physician activities, including prescribing, dictating, ordering lab tests and viewing results, documenting clinical encounters, and capturing charges, among others. TouchWorks has the functionality to handle the complexities of large physician practices, while also addressing the needs of mid-sized physician practice groups. TouchScript is an e-prescribing solution that physicians can access securely via the Internet to quickly, safely and securely prescribe medications, check for drug interactions, access medication histories, review drug reference information, and send prescriptions directly to a pharmacy or mail order facility. TouchScript can be a starting point for medical groups to seamlessly transition over time to a complete EHR.
On March 2, 2006, we completed our acquisition of A4 Health Systems, Inc. (“A4”), which will allow us to reach new markets such as the small and mid-sized physician practice groups that are seeking either a practice management system or a combined EHR and practice management solution and hospitals that are seeking emergency department information systems (“EDIS”) or care management solutions. The A4 acquisition will also enable us to extend our product offerings by allowing us to independently offer an integrated solution that combines our EHR solution with A4’s practice management system. We intend to classify A4’s operating results in the software and related services segment as of the date of acquisition.
In our information services segment, our key product offerings are Physicians Interactive, Patients Interactive and Enterprise eMarketing Solution, which we recently introduced. Physicians Interactive is a web-based solution that connects physicians with pharmaceutical companies, medical device manufacturers, and biotech companies. One element of this solution, often referred to as e-Detailing, uses interactive sessions to provide clinical education and information to physicians about medical products and disease states, which promotes more informed decision-making, increased efficiency, and ultimately higher quality patient care. Other elements of the Physicians Interactive platform include e-surveys, clinical updates, resource centers, key opinion leader materials, and other physician relationship management services. Patients Interactive is a web-based solution that enables physician-directed patient education, promoting medication adherence and compliance, and disease management. Through our partnership with Medem, our Patients Interactive and TouchWorks solutions also provide physicians and patients with a tool for secure online consultations, automated disease management services and personal health records. Enterprise eMarketing Solution provides pharmaceutical companies with a turnkey system to build an electronic dialogue and manage ongoing relationships with physicians. The Enterprise eMarketing solution incorporates a full suite of online tools, including campaign management, physician communication and education, sample and rep requests, as well as e-Detailing opportunities.

Finally, our prepackaged medications segment is comprised of our Medication Services Group. This group provides point-of-care medication management and medical supply services and solutions for physicians and other healthcare providers.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Allscripts and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Stock-Based Compensation
Allscripts applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standard (“FAS”) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“FAS 123”). As allowed by FAS 123, Allscripts has elected to continue to account for its stock-based compensation programs according to the provisions of Accounting Principles Bulletin (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”). Accordingly, compensation expense has been recognized based on the intrinsic value of compensatory options or shares granted under the plans. Allscripts has adopted the disclosure provisions required by FAS 123.
Had Allscripts elected to apply the provisions of FAS 123 regarding recognition of compensation expense to the extent of the calculated fair value of stock awards granted, reported net income (loss) per share for the three years ended December 31, 2005 would have been as follows:

 	  	2005	 	 	2004	 	 	2003	 	
Net income (loss), as reported	  	$9,710	 	 	$3,108	 	 	($4,979	)	
Stock-based compensation cost related to the issuance of stock awards included in net income (loss), as reported	  	87	 	 	—  	 	 	78	 	
Stock-based compensation cost	  	(13,083	)	 	(16,468	)	 	(21,506	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Pro forma net loss	  	($3,286	)	 	($13,360	)	 	($26,407	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Net income (loss) per share—basic, as reported	  	$0.24	 	 	$0.08	 	 	($0.13	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Net income (loss) per share—diluted, as reported	  	$0.23	 	 	$0.07	 	 	($0.13	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Pro forma net loss per share—basic and diluted	  	($0.08	)	 	($0.34	)	 	($0.68	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Under FAS 123, compensation expense representing fair value of the stock award is recognized over the vesting period.
For purposes of the FAS 123 pro forma net loss and net loss per share calculation, the fair value of each option grant is estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted average assumptions used in determining fair value are as follows:

 	  	2005	 	 	2004	 	 	2003	 	
Risk-free interest rate	  	3.23	%	 	2.78	%	 	2.23	%	
Volatility	  	150	%	 	174	%	 	110	%	
Dividend rate	  	—  	%	 	—  	%	 	—  	%	
Option life (years)	  	2.7	 	 	2.4	 	 	3.8	 	
For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, the weighted-average fair value of options granted was $9.40, $7.28, and $2.62, respectively.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“FAS 123(R)”). This statement requires that the compensation cost relating to share based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Compensation cost is to be measured based on the estimated fair value of the equity-based compensation awards issued as of the grant date. The related compensation expense will be based on the estimated number of awards expected to vest and will be

recognized over the requisite service period (often the vesting period) for each grant. The statement requires the use of assumptions and judgments about future events and some of the inputs to the valuation models will require considerable judgment by management. FAS 123(R) replaces FAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. Allscripts continued to apply APB 25 to equity-based compensation awards through December 31, 2005 and will adopt FAS 123(R) as of January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective transition method. Allscripts estimates the non-cash compensation charge for unvested options as of December 31, 2005 to be approximately $450 for 2006.
On December 30, 2005, Allscripts’ Board of Directors approved the accelerated vesting of certain options to purchase approximately 1,291 shares of common stock that were due to fully vest by August 1, 2007. The primary purpose of the accelerated vesting was to eliminate future stock-based employee compensation expense of approximately $5,500 that the Company would have otherwise recognized under FAS 123(R). The exercise prices of the affected stock options range from $2.77 to $10.67 per share. As a result of the acceleration, Allscripts recognized an additional non-cash, non-recurring, stock-based compensation charge of approximately $518 on December 30, 2005.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from the prepackaged medications segment, from the sale of medications, net of provisions for estimated returns, is recognized upon shipment of the pharmaceutical products, the point at which the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, when no performance obligations remain and collection of the receivable is probable. Allscripts offers the right of return on pharmaceutical products under various policies and estimates and maintains reserves for product returns based on historical experience following the provisions of FAS No. 48, “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists.”
Revenue from software licensing arrangements, where the service element is considered essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement, is accounted for under American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type Contracts and Certain Production-Type Contracts.” Allscripts recognizes revenue on an input basis using actual hours worked as a percentage of total expected hours required by the arrangement, provided that the fee is fixed and determinable and collection of the receivable is probable. Maintenance and support from these agreements is recognized over the term of the support agreement based on vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of the maintenance revenue, which is generally based upon contractual renewal rates. For agreements that are deemed to have extended payment terms, revenue is recognized using the input method but is limited to the amounts due and payable.
Revenue from software licensing arrangements where the service element is not considered essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement is accounted for under SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended by SOP 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions.” Such revenue is recognized upon shipment of the software or as services are performed, provided persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, fees are considered fixed and determinable, and collection of the receivable is considered probable. The revenue recognized for each separate element of a multiple-element software contract is based upon vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value, which is based upon the price the customer is required to pay when the element is sold separately.
Certain of our customer arrangements in our information services segment encompass multiple deliverables. We account for these arrangements in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” (“EITF 00-21”). If the deliverables meet the criteria in EITF 00-21, the deliverables are separated into separate units of accounting, and revenue is allocated to the deliverables based on their relative fair values. The criteria specified in EITF 00-21 are that the delivered item has value to the customer on a stand-alone basis, there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered item, and if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item, delivery or performance of the undelivered item is considered probable and substantially in the control of the vendor. Applicable revenue recognition criteria is considered separately for each separate unit of accounting.
 
54

Table of Contents
Management applies judgment to ensure appropriate application of EITF 00-21, including value allocation among multiple deliverables, determination of whether undelivered elements are essential to the functionality of delivered elements and timing of revenue recognition, among others. For those arrangements where the deliverables do not qualify as a separate unit of accounting, revenue from all deliverables is treated as one accounting unit and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the arrangement. Changes in circumstances and customer data may affect management’s analysis of EITF 00-21 criteria, which may cause Allscripts to adjust upward or downward the amount of revenue recognized under the arrangement.
In accordance with EITF issued Consensus 01-14, “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements for ‘Out-of-Pocket’ Expenses Incurred,” revenue includes reimbursable expenses charged to our clients.
As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, there were $6,668 and $2,351 of revenue earned on contracts in excess of billings, which are included in the balance of accounts receivable. Billings on contracts where revenue has been earned in excess of billings are expected to occur according to the contract terms. Deferred revenue consisted of the following:

 	  	December 31,	
 	  	2005	  	2004	
Prepayments and billings in excess of revenue earned on contracts in progress for software, services and support provided by the Clinical Solutions Group included in our software and related services segment	  	$12,860	  	$9,467	
Prepayments and billings in excess of revenue earned for interactive physician education sessions and related services provided by the Physicians Interactive Group included in our information services segment	  	4,446	  	5,140	
 	  	 	  	 	
Total deferred revenue	  	$17,306	  	$14,607	
 	  	 	  	 	
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities
Cash and cash equivalent balances at December 31, 2005 and 2004 consist of cash and highly liquid corporate debt securities with maturities at the time of purchase of less than 90 days. Allscripts’ cash, cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities and long-term marketable securities are invested in overnight repurchase agreements, money market funds, U.S. and non-U.S. government debt securities, and corporate debt securities. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities and long-term marketable securities held by Allscripts are as follows:

Management determines the appropriate classification of debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates the designation at each balance sheet date. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, marketable securities were classified as available-for-sale and carried at their fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses reported net-of-tax in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The components of the net unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities are as follows:

 	  	As of
December 31,	 	
 	  	2005	 	 	2004	 	
Short-term marketable securities:	  	 	 	 	 	 	
Gross unrealized gains	  	$14	 	 	$2	 	
Gross unrealized losses	  	(258	)	 	(60	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	
Net short-term unrealized losses	  	(244	)	 	(58	)	
Long-term marketable securities:	  	 	 	 	 	 	
Gross unrealized gains	  	—  	 	 	7	 	
Gross unrealized losses	  	(416	)	 	(538	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	
Net long-term unrealized losses	  	(416	)	 	(531	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	
Total net unrealized losses on marketable securities	  	($660	)	 	($589	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	
For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, net realized gains (losses) were ($51), $3, and $95, respectively.
Realized gains and losses and declines in value determined to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are included in other expense, net. The cost of securities sold is based on specific identification. Interest and dividends on securities classified as available-for-sale are included in interest income. There were no other-than-temporary declines for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amounts and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded to provide for estimated losses resulting from uncollectible accounts, and is based principally upon specifically identified amounts where collection is deemed doubtful. Additional non-specific allowances are recorded based on historical experience and management’s assessment of a variety of factors related to the general financial condition of Allscripts’ customer base. Allscripts reviews the collectibility of individual accounts and assesses the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Allscripts does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.
Inventories
Inventories, which consist primarily of medications, are carried at the lower of cost or market with cost being determined using the specific identification method.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Upon asset retirement or other disposition, cost and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations. Amounts expended for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the costs over the fair value of assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized in accordance with FAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“FAS 142”), but instead tested for impairment at least annually. FAS 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with FAS 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”
Allscripts has selected January 1 as the date of its annual impairment test of goodwill. No indicators of impairment were identified as a result of its annual impairment test performed on January 1, 2006.
Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are stated at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic lives of those assets, including the period being reported on.
Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of
In accordance with FAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“FAS 144”), Allscripts reviews its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Investment in Promissory Note and Minority Interest
Allscripts holds an investment in Medem totaling $2,600 and $1,550 as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The investment has been accounted for under the cost basis of accounting and is recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The investment at December 31, 2005 and 2004 consists of a $2,100 and $1,050 note receivable, respectively, and a $500 minority interest in Medem. The fair value of the investment is dependent upon the actual financial performance of Medem, its market value, and the volatility inherent in the external markets for this type of investment. In assessing potential impairment of the investment, we consider these factors, as well as the forecasted financial performance of Medem, liquidation preference value of the stock that we hold, and estimated potential for investment recovery. If any of these factors indicate that the investment has become other-than-temporarily impaired, we may have to record an impairment charge.
Software Development Costs
Allscripts capitalizes purchased software that is ready for service and software development costs incurred from the time technological feasibility of the software is established until the software is available for general release in accordance with FAS No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed.” Research and development costs and other computer software maintenance costs related to software development are expensed as incurred. Upon the establishment of technological feasibility, related software development costs are capitalized. During 2005, 2004, and 2003, software development costs in the amount of $3,186, $3,949, and $2,400, respectively, were capitalized. The unamortized balance of capitalized software at the end of 2005 and 2004 was $6,409 and $6,270, respectively. Upon the availability for general release, Allscripts commences amortization of the software on a product by product basis. Amortization is recorded based upon the greater of the ratio that current gross revenues for a product are to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product or the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product, including the period being reported on, which is estimated to be three years. Amortization of capitalized software development costs amounted to $3,047, $1,719, and $1,043 for 2005, 2004,

and 2003, respectively. Software development costs of $3,765, $4,316, and $5,050 have been expensed in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.
At each balance sheet date, the unamortized capitalized costs of a software product are compared to the net realizable value of that product. The amount by which the unamortized capitalized costs of a software product exceed the net realizable value of that asset is written off. The net realizable value is the estimated future gross revenues from that product reduced by the estimated future costs of completing and disposing of that product, including the costs of performing maintenance and customer support required to satisfy Allscripts’ responsibility set forth at the time of sale.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets or liabilities are established for temporary differences between financial and tax reporting bases and for tax carryforward items and are subsequently adjusted to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance is established for any deferred tax asset for which realization is not likely.
Manufacturer Rebates
Rebates from suppliers are recorded as a reduction of cost of revenue and are generally recognized on an estimated basis upon shipment of the product to customers. The difference between the amount estimated and the amount actually received is reflected prospectively as a change of estimate. These revisions have not been material.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in stockholders’ equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of income tax, consist of unrealized losses on Allscripts marketable securities of ($660) and ($589), at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
The components of comprehensive income (loss) are as follows:

 	  	2005	 	 	2004	 	 	2003	 	
Net income (loss)	  	$9,710	 	 	$3,108	 	 	($4,979	)	
Other comprehensive income (loss):	  	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Unrealized loss on marketable securities, net of tax	  	(71	)	 	(691	)	 	(257	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Comprehensive income (loss)	  	$9,639	 	 	$2,417	 	 	($5,236	)	
 	  	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Allscripts accounts for net income (loss) per share in accordance with FAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share” (“FAS 128”). FAS 128 requires the presentation of “basic” income (loss) per share and “diluted” income (loss) per share. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted-average shares of outstanding common stock. For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, the denominator
 
58

Table of Contents
includes both the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive potential common stock equivalents. Dilutive common stock equivalent shares consist primarily of stock options.
The components of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding is as follows:

 	  	December 31,	
 	  	2005	  	2004	  	2003	
Weighted average shares outstanding:	  	 	  	 	  	 	
Basic	  	40,045	  	38,979	  	38,621	
Effect of dilutive securities	  	3,023	  	2,613	  	—  	
 	  	 	  	 	  	 	
Diluted	  	43,068	  	41,592	  	38,621	
 	  	 	  	 	  	 	
FAS 128 requires all anti-dilutive securities, including stock options, be excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation. Because of Allscripts’ net loss for the year ended December 31, 2003, 608 dilutive securities were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
On September 30, 2004, the EITF reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 04-8, “The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt on Diluted Earnings Per Share” (“EITF 04-8”). Effective December 15, 2004, contingently convertible debt instruments are subject to the if-converted method under FAS 128, “Earnings Per Share,” regardless of the contingent features included in the instrument assuming the shares are not anti-dilutive. Under the provisions of EITF 04-8, the as-if convertible 7,300 shares and interest expense related to Allscripts’ Notes were excluded from the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, as the effects were anti-dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are reported at their fair values in the balance sheets with the corresponding mark-to-market adjustments recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for accounts receivable, investment in Medem, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Allscripts’ notes receivable from Medem and senior convertible debentures have interest rates that approximate current market values; therefore, the carrying value of both approximate fair value. Letters of credit fair value amounts are based on fees currently charged on similar agreements.
Risks and Uncertainties
Financial instruments that potentially subject Allscripts to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and trade receivables. Allscripts maintains its cash balances with one major commercial bank and its cash equivalents and marketable securities in interest-bearing, investment-grade securities.
Allscripts sells its products and services to healthcare providers. Credit risk with respect to trade receivables is generally diversified due to the large number of customers and their dispersion across the United States. To reduce credit risk, Allscripts performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and their payment histories. In general, Allscripts does not require collateral from its customers, but it does enter into advance deposit, security or guarantee agreements, if appropriate. The provision for doubtful accounts aggregated $553, $451, and $558 in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.
The majority of revenue is derived from customers located in the United States. All long-lived assets are located in the United States. There were no customers that accounted for greater than 10% of revenue or accounts receivable in 2005, 2004, and 2003.

Allscripts purchases a majority of its drug inventories under a contractual agreement with one wholesaler/distributor, which accounted for approximately 92% and 88% of all inventory purchases during 2005 and 2004, respectively. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, approximately 66% and 42%, respectively, of accounts payable are related to these purchases. Allscripts is exposed to risk of loss of revenue and customers in the event of a breach of contract or nonperformance by this wholesaler/distributor resulting in restriction of or diminished availability of inventory. In addition, if Allscripts does not meet certain minimum purchasing requirements with its primary wholesaler/distributor, it may increase the prices that Allscripts pays under the agreement, in which case Allscripts would have the option to terminate the agreement. However, Allscripts does not anticipate that a breach of contract or any nonperformance will occur. In the event it does, Allscripts believes that there are several other available wholesalers/distributors, which would be able to provide the necessary inventories to Allscripts on a timely basis such that no material loss would occur. As of December 31, 2005, Allscripts believes that it has met all minimum purchase requirements as defined in the agreement with its primary wholesaler/distributor.
Allscripts provides its software customers with a standard product warranty beginning with live use of the software. If a software product is found to have a material defect that causes the product not to operate in accordance with the software specifications, Allscripts will deliver any necessary alterations to the customer.
Beginning in 1999, Allscripts became a defendant in various multi-defendant lawsuits involving the manufacture and sale of dexfenfluramine, fenfluramine and phentermine. The majority of these suits were filed in state courts in Texas. The plaintiffs in these cases claim injury as a result of ingesting a combination of these weight-loss drugs. In each of these suits, Allscripts is one of many defendants, including manufacturers and other distributors of these drugs. Allscripts does not believe it has significant liability incident to the distribution or repackaging of these drugs, and Allscripts has tendered defense of these lawsuits to our insurance carrier for handling. In addition, Allscripts has been indemnified by the primary manufacturer of the drugs at issue in these cases. Allscripts believes that it is unlikely that it is responsible for the distribution of the drugs at issue in many of these cases. The lawsuits are in various stages of litigation, and it is too early to determine what, if any, liability Allscripts will have with respect to the claims made in these lawsuits. If Allscripts’ insurance coverage and its indemnity from the drug manufacturer is inadequate to satisfy any resulting liability, Allscripts will have to defend these lawsuits and be responsible for the damages, if any, that it suffers as a result of these lawsuits. Allscripts does not believe that the outcome of these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Use of Estimates
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at year end and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts reported in prior years have been reclassified from what was previously reported to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“FAS 154”). FAS 154 requires restatement of prior periods’ financial statements for changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. Also, FAS 154 requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change. FAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years

beginning after December 15, 2005. Allscripts does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2005, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 05-6, “Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements Purchased after Lease Inception or Acquired in a Business Combination” (“EITF 05-6”). This guidance requires that leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or purchased subsequent to the inception of a lease be amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the assets or a term that includes required lease periods and renewals that are reasonably assured at the date of the business combination or purchase. This guidance is applicable only to leasehold improvements that are purchased or acquired in reporting periods beginning after June 29, 2005. Allscripts is evaluating this EITF as it relates to leasehold improvements acquired in the A4 acquisition completed on March 2, 2006.
In November 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 115-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments” (“FSP 115-1”). FSP 115-1 provides additional guidance on when an investment in a debt or equity security should be considered impaired and when that impairment should be considered other-than-temporary and recognized as a loss in earnings. Specifically, the guidance clarifies that an investor should recognize an impairment loss no later than when the impairment is deemed other-than-temporary, even if a decision to sell has not been made. FSP 115-1 also requires certain disclosures about unrealized losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. Allscripts does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect on its financial statements.
3. Business Combinations
On August 1, 2003, Allscripts acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Advanced Imaging Concepts Inc. (“AIC”), a provider of document imaging, scanning and management software for the medical industry. AIC’s results are included in Allscripts’ results of operations from the date of acquisition. The purchase price of $18,981 included the issuance of 474 common stock options in exchange for existing AIC common stock options, with a value of $1,242, and the granting of an additional 431 common stock options, with a value of $1,000. A purchase price holdback obligation totaling $1,800 was established to provide for certain contingencies and financial items, as defined. The holdback period was for eighteen months following the closing of the acquisition. All of the holdback obligation has been paid as of December 31, 2005, with the exception for $84, which will be paid upon the receipt of required acknowledgment from the AIC stockholders. The holdback obligation of $84 and $1,800 as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, is included in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets.
At the date of acquisition, the estimated fair value of the total assets and liabilities acquired was approximately $21,050 and $2,069, respectively. Allscripts recorded $10,269 and $8,869 of goodwill and intangible assets, respectively, in connection with the acquisition. The $10,269 of goodwill, which was subsequently increased by $11 in 2004 and $47 in 2005 due to additional acquisition obligations, was assigned to the software and related services segment. Of that total amount, none is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Of the $8,869 of acquired intangible assets, $2,700 was assigned to registered trademarks, which are not subject to amortization. The remaining $6,169 has a weighted-average useful life of approximately 6 years. The intangible assets that make up that amount include proprietary technology of $4,600 (5-year weighted-average useful life), customer relationships of $1,520 (10-year weighted-average useful life) and employment agreements of $49 (2-year weighted-average useful life). A deferred tax liability of $3,454, based on the tax effects of non-goodwill intangibles related to the acquisition, was recorded.
On August 8, 2003, Allscripts acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of RxCentric, a provider of technology-enabled sales and marketing solutions for the pharmaceutical industry. Allscripts acquired certain assets of RxCentric to expand its client base in the United States and in the international market for its information services business. The results of operations related to the acquisition of certain assets of RxCentric are included in Allscripts’ results of operations from the date of acquisition. At the date of acquisition,

Table of Contents
the estimated fair value of the total assets acquired and liabilities assumed was approximately $4,177 and $2,731, respectively. Allscripts recorded $3,283 and $60 of goodwill and intangible assets, respectively, in connection with the acquisition. The $3,283 of goodwill was assigned to the information services segment. Of that total amount, $3,283 is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The original purchase price related to the acquisition was $1,446 in cash, subject to adjustment upon obtaining a third-party valuation of the intangible assets. A purchase price holdback obligation totaling $400 was established to provide for certain contingencies and financial items, as defined.
The third party valuation of the intangible assets was completed in first quarter 2004, and Allscripts allocated $440 of the original purchase price to an intangible asset for customer relationships, which will be amortized over a ten-year weighted average useful life. The finalization of the RxCentric asset valuation also resulted in $108 of additional goodwill. In addition, the $400 holdback obligation was settled for $150 in the second quarter of 2004, which resulted in a $250 purchase price adjustment to goodwill.
The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of Allscripts, AIC and RxCentric as if the acquisitions had occurred as of January 1, 2003. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of what consolidated results of operations actually would have been had the acquisitions been completed at the date indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not purport to project the future results of operations of the combined company.

6. Investment in Promissory Note Receivable and Minority Interest
On August 18, 2004, Allscripts entered into a Convertible Secured Promissory Note Purchase Agreement (“Note Purchase Agreement”) with Medem and certain other investors. Under the Note Purchase Agreement, Allscripts acquired a convertible secured promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $2,100 (“Promissory Note”) under which Medem may borrow up to $2,100 from Allscripts. The Promissory Note bears interest at an annual rate of 3% and is payable on a quarterly basis. The Promissory Note becomes due and payable upon the earlier to occur of (i) a sale of Medem, as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement, or the filing of a registration statement with the SEC for public offering of any class of securities of Medem (a “Liquidity Event”), and (ii) August 12, 2007. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, Allscripts had funded $2,100 and $1,050, respectively, under the Note Purchase Agreement. The Promissory Note receivable balance is included in other
 
63

Table of Contents
assets in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004. In February 2006, Allscripts funded an additional $500 convertible secured promissory note under a contract signed in November 2005 (see Note 17).
At any time on or prior to maturity, Allscripts may convert all (but not a portion) of the Promissory Note into 2,100 shares of Medem’s Series A Common Stock. In connection with the transaction described above, Allscripts entered into a Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Allscripts purchased shares of Medem’s Series A Common Stock and shares of Medem’s Series B Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price equal to $500 in cash and is recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004. In addition, pursuant to the terms of such agreement, Allscripts has a three-year option to acquire an additional interest in Medem for an aggregate price of $600.
As of December 31, 2005, we owned 3.1% of the voting capital of Medem and 1.9% of the capital stock of Medem. If we convert the entire promissory note and exercise our full option to purchase additional equity in Medem, we will own approximately 38.9% of the voting capital of Medem and 31.9% of the capital stock of Medem. The total investment in the Promissory Note and Share Purchase Agreement totaled $2,600 and $1,550 as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, and has been accounted for under the cost basis of accounting.
7. Long-Term Debt
In July 2004, Allscripts completed a private placement of $82,500 of 3.50% Senior Convertible Debentures due 2024 (“Notes”). The Notes can be converted, in certain circumstances, into approximately 7,300 shares of common stock based upon a conversion price of approximately $11.26 per share, subject to adjustment for certain events.
The Notes are only convertible under certain circumstances, including: (i) during any fiscal quarter if the closing price of Allscripts’ common stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter exceeds $14.64 per share; (ii) if Allscripts calls the Notes for redemption; or (iii) upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate transactions, as defined. Upon conversion, Allscripts has the right to deliver common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock. Allscripts may redeem some or all of the Notes for cash any time on or after July 20, 2009 at the Notes’ full principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Holders of the Notes may require Allscripts to repurchase some or all of the Notes on July 15, 2009, 2014 and 2019 or, subject to certain exceptions, upon a change of control of Allscripts.
Allscripts received approximately $79,612 in net proceeds from the offering after deduction for issuance costs consisting of underwriting fees and professional expenses. The debt issuance costs of approximately $2,888 have been capitalized as an other asset and is being amortized as interest expense over five years using the effective interest method, through the first date that the holders have the option to require Allscripts to purchase the Notes. Long-term debt outstanding as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 consists solely of the principal balance on the notes of $82,500. No payments of principal are due until 2024.

The valuation allowance as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $61,284 and $54,630, respectively. The net change in the total valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was an increase of $6,654 and a decrease of $1,535, respectively. As a result of the A4 acquisition on March 2, 2006 (see Note 17), and the resulting forecasted net income of the combined company, Allscripts’ management is evaluating the possible reversal of its deferred tax asset valuation allowance in conjunction with the purchase accounting for the A4 acquisition.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.

At December 31, 2005, Allscripts had operating loss carryforwards available for federal income tax reporting purposes of approximately $167,340. The operating loss carryforwards expire between 2006 and 2023. Allscripts’ ability to utilize these operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income is dependent on a variety of factors, including possible limitations pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section (IRC) 382. IRC 382 imposes an annual limitation on the future utilization of operating loss carryforwards due to changes in ownership resulting from the issuance of common stock, stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock.
9. Common Stock
In connection with the private placement of the Notes in July of 2004, Allscripts received approximately $79,612 in net proceeds from the offering after deduction for underwriting fees and professional expenses. Allscripts used approximately $11,250 of the net proceeds to repurchase approximately 1,399 shares of its common stock, which are held in treasury as of December 31, 2005 and 2004.
On February 28, 2006, Allscripts completed a public offering of 8,395 shares of common stock and received net proceeds of $140,711. On March 2, 2006, we issued 3,500 shares of common stock in connection with the A4 acquisition. On March 9, 2006, Allscripts repurchased 1,250 shares of common stock from IDX for $21,078 (see Note 17).
10. Stock Award Plans
At December 31, 2005, options to purchase 10,093 shares of common stock were authorized under Allscripts’ Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Incentive Plan (“1993 Plan”). The exercise price for shares under this plan is determined by Allscripts’ Board of Directors at the date of grant. All options or restricted stock issued under the plan must be exercised within ten years of the date of grant. Options and restricted stock vest on various schedules, primarily on a straight-line basis over three and four year periods from the date of grant, and in certain circumstances upon a change in control. The plan provides for exercise of options by payment of cash or mature shares of common stock. During 2005 and 2004, shareholders approved an increase of 700 shares and 1,000 shares, respectively, of common stock to be available for issuance under the 1993 Plan. At December 31, 2005, Allscripts had reserved 6,098 shares of common stock for issuance upon exercise of outstanding options and 856 shares of common stock were available for future issuance under the 1993 Plan.
In January 2001, the Board of Directors approved the Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. 2001 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan (“2001 Plan”). The plan provides for the issuance of up to 4,500 options to purchase common stock. The plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The plan covers employees of Allscripts or its affiliates (excluding, however, any employee who is also serving as an officer or director of Allscripts or an affiliate) designated by the Board or the Compensation Committee as being eligible under the plan and non-employee consultants or contractors. The exercise price, term and vesting period of options issued under this plan are determined by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant. During 2003, the Board of Directors approved an increase of 1,500 shares of common stock to be available for issuance under the 2001 Plan. At December 31, 2005, Allscripts had reserved 2,420 shares of common stock for issuance upon exercise of outstanding options and 102 shares of common stock were available for future issuance under the 2001 Plan.
On December 30, 2005 Allscripts’ Board of Directors approved the accelerated vesting of certain options to purchase approximately 1,291 shares of common stock that were due to fully vest by August 1, 2007. The Company estimates that approximately $5,500 of future compensation expense that otherwise would be recognized under FAS 123(R) was eliminated. The exercise prices of the affected stock options range from $2.77 to $10.67 per share. As a result of the acceleration, Allscripts recognized an additional non-cash, non-recurring, stock-based compensation charge of approximately $518 on December 30, 2005.
Total stock-based compensation expense related to options issued to employees was $518, $0, and $78 for the years ended 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

During 2005, management awarded 30 shares of restricted stock with a fair value of $15.38 to certain employees under the 1993 Plan. The restricted stock has an average three-year vesting term and, upon termination, any unvested shares will be forfeited. The fair value of the restricted stock on the date of the grant is amortized ratably over the vesting period. Total stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock issued to employees was $87 for the year ended December 31, 2005, and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.
11. Commitments
Allscripts conducts its operations from leased premises under several operating leases. Total rent expense from operations was $1,489, $1,326, and $1,144 in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. Rent expense is net of sublease rental income of $36, $0, and $0 in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

In connection with the Allscripts’ lease agreement of its corporate facilities, Allscripts has provided to the lessor an unconditional irrevocable letter of credit in favor of the lessor in the amount of $500 as security for the full and prompt performance by Allscripts under the lease agreement. The letter of credit may be drawn upon by the lessor and retained, used or applied by lessor for the purpose of curing any monetary default or defaults of Allscripts under the lease. The letter of credit provides for an expiration date of one year from the commencement date of the lease, and will automatically extend for additional successive one-year periods through the term of the lease. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, no amounts had been drawn on the letter of credit.
We have other letters of credit as security for full and prompt performance under various contractual arrangements totaling $125. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, no amounts had been drawn on the letter of credit.
12. Savings Plan
Allscripts’ employees who meet certain eligibility requirements can participate in Allscripts’ 401(k) Savings and Investment Plan. Under the plan, Allscripts may, at its discretion, match the employee contributions. Allscripts recorded expense related to its matching contributions in 2005, 2004, and 2003 of $361, $377, and $347, respectively.
13. Business Segments
FAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of a Business Enterprise and Related Information,” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
Allscripts currently organizes its business around groups of similar products, which results in three reportable segments being reported: software and related services; prepackaged medications; and information services. The software and related services segment derives its revenue from the sale and installation of clinical software that provides point-of-care decision support solutions, document imaging solutions, and the resale of related hardware. The prepackaged medications segment derives its revenue from the repackaging, sale, and distribution of medications and medical supplies. The information services segment primarily derives its revenue from the sale of interactive physician education sessions. Allscripts does not report its assets by segment. Allscripts does not allocate interest income, interest expense, other income or income taxes to its operating segments. In addition, Allscripts records corporate selling, general, and administration expenses, amortization of intangibles, restructuring and other related charges in its unallocated corporate costs. These costs are not included in the evaluation of the financial performance of Allscripts’ operating segments.

Table of Contents
and an accrual to Medem of $145 as of December 31, 2005, of which $648 is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Allscripts resells the iHealthRecord to Allscripts’ customers and accordingly recorded revenue of $221 and costs of $139 for the year ended December 31, 2005. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2005, Allscripts funded $1,050, respectively, to Medem under the Note Purchase Agreement (see Note 7).
During the second quarter of 2005, Allscripts entered into a service contract with ExactTarget, an email marketing solutions company, of which one of our Board members serves as Chairman of the Board. The total amount of the obligation under the contract is $69. As of December 31, 2005, Allscripts had accrued $7 and paid $39 under such service contract.
IDX owned approximately 17% of Allscripts’ common stock at December 31, 2005. As part of a 10-year strategic alliance agreement as amended on January 18, 2006, Allscripts is obligated to pay IDX a percentage of Allscripts’ revenue related to IDX customers. Pursuant to this obligation, Allscripts paid IDX approximately $2,059, $1,829, and $980 during 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. Allscripts also leases office space from IDX and contracted with IDX for certain marketing and consulting services in 2005, 2004 and 2003. Allscripts paid IDX approximately $357, $359, and $465 for lease of office space and use of the facility’s infrastructure for the years 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively, and $47, $12, and $27 for marketing and consulting services for the years 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, Allscripts had accounts payable and accruals with IDX of $1,596 and $502, respectively.
Allscripts and IDX were also joint parties under certain customer contracts in 2005 and 2004. Allscripts paid IDX approximately $14 and $140 for billings and collections on behalf of IDX related to such contracts in 2005 and 2004, respectively. IDX paid us approximately $904 and $88 for billings and collections on our behalf related to such contracts in 2005 and 2004, respectively. Such transactions did not have any impact on Allscripts results of operations for both years.
One of Allscripts’ directors is a partner at the law firm of Gardner Carton & Douglas, LLP, which has represented Allscripts in various matters since 1987. Payments made to the law firm were $75 and $57 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, Allscripts had accounts payable and accruals with the law firm of $5 and $0, respectively.
Our Chief Executive Officer serves on the Advisory Board of Acquirent, LLC, a telemarketer and a reseller of our e-prescribing solution. During the year ended December 31, 2005, we paid $43 and had accrued $28 as of December 31, 2005 to this company.
17. Subsequent Events
Medem Note Purchase
On February 7, 2006, we funded an additional convertible secured promissory note from Medem in a principal amount of $500 under a contract signed in November 2005. If we convert the entire promissory note and exercise our full option to purchase additional equity in Medem, we will own approximately 41.1% of the voting capital of Medem and 33.2% of the capital stock of Medem. We continue to account for this investment under the cost basis of accounting.
Public Offering of Common Stock
On February 28, 2006, we completed our offering of 8,395 shares of common stock and received approximately $140,711 in net proceeds, based on a public offering price of $17.75 per share after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated expenses. Of the 8,395 shares issued, 1,399 shares were issued from treasury. All of the proceeds received from the sale of common stock were used to fund the acquisition of A4.

Table of Contents
Acquisition of A4 Health Systems, Inc.
On January 18, 2006, we entered into an agreement of merger (“Merger Agreement”) with A4. The Merger Agreement provides for a business combination whereby a newly formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of Allscripts will be merged with and into A4, with A4 surviving the merger. We consummated the merger with A4 on March 2, 2006. A4 develops and provides EHR and practice management solutions to small and mid-sized physician practice groups, EDIS to hospital emergency departments, and care management solutions to hospitals.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, on March 2, 2006 we acquired all of the outstanding equity interests (including options) of A4 for aggregate merger consideration of $215,000 in cash and 3,500 shares of Allscripts common stock, subject to a purchase price adjustment based on positive working capital as defined in the Merger Agreement (estimated to be an additional payment of $11,400 as of February 28, 2006). Our acquisition of A4 will be accounted for as a business combination under SFAS No. 141. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded at their fair values. The total preliminary purchase price (subject to adjustment), of which the estimated working capital adjustment has been determined using unaudited financial results as of September 30, 2005 and is subject to adjustment as defined in the Merger Agreement, is $294,175 including acquisition related transaction costs, and is comprised of:

Acquisition of the outstanding common stock of A4 (cash of $215,000, working capital cash of $6,400 as of September 30, 2005, and 3,500 Allscripts shares at $19.65 per share, the last sale price of our common stock on March 2, 2006)	  	$290,175	
Acquisition related transaction costs	  	4,000	
 	  	 	
Total preliminary purchase price	  	$294,175	
 	  	 	
Acquisition related transaction costs include our estimate of investment banking fees, loan commitment fee for securing bridge financing, legal and accounting fees and other external costs directly related to the A4 acquisition.
Under business combination accounting, the total preliminary purchase price will be allocated to A4’s net tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values. Based upon our management’s preliminary valuation, the total purchase price will be allocated as follows:

Goodwill	  	$161,475	
Identifiable intangible assets	  	80,500	
Net tangible assets	  	30,100	
Net deferred tax assets	  	22,100	
 	  	 	
Total preliminary purchase price	  	$294,175	
 	  	 	
Repurchase of Common Stock
On March 9, 2006, we repurchased 1,250 shares of our common stock directly from GE, IDX, and IDX Investment Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of IDX. We paid $21,078, which is based on 95% of the February 22, 2006 public offering price of $17.75.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
On April 16, 2004, we announced that we appointed Grant Thornton LLP as our independent accountants, replacing KPMG LLP. The decision to change auditors was not caused by any disagreement between Allscripts and KPMG LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework  issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the framework in  Internal Control—Integrated Framework , our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2005.
Our management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 has been audited by Grant Thornton LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term  “Direct Competitor”  shall mean any person or entity engaged in the business of marketing or providing within the continental United States those businesses in which the Company currently engages in or plans to engage in the twelve months from the date of departure including but not limited to clinical software for physicians, decision support software, tools or applications, practice management systems, process consulting or implementation services, prescription products or services for pharmacy benefit management products or services including, without limitation, prepackaged prescription products or services, point of care pharmacy dispensing systems, and, mail service pharmacy products or services, or pharmaceuticals or pharmaceutical delivery systems.

employed by Company at any time during the six (6) month period immediately prior to the Termination Date.
5.3 Confidential Information. Company has advised Executive, and Executive acknowledges, that it is the policy of Company to maintain as secret and confidential all Protected Information (as defined below), and that Protected Information has been and will be developed at substantial cost and effort to Company.

5.4 Injunctive Relief. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions imposed upon her by this Section 5 and the purpose for such restrictions are reasonable and are designed to protect the Protected Information and the continued success of Company without unduly restricting Executive’s future employment by others. Furthermore, Executive acknowledges that in view of the Protected Information of Company which Executive has or will acquire or has or will have access to and the necessity of the restriction contained in this Section 5, any violation of the provisions of this Section 5 would cause irreparable injury to Company and its successors in interest with respect to the resulting disruption in their operations. By reason of the foregoing, Executive consents and agrees that if he violates any of the provisions of this Section 5, the company and its successors in interest, as the case may be, shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies that they may have, including monetary damages, to an injunction to be issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, restraining Executive from committing or continuing any violation of this Section 5.

In no event shall Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement and, except as otherwise provided herein, such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not Executive obtains other employment.

Exhibit 10.29
ALLSCRIPTS HEALTHCARE SOLUTIONS, INC.
Restricted Stock Award Agreement
(Directors)
THIS AGREEMENT is made as of «Date» (the “Grant Date”), by and between Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Corporation”), and «First_Name» «Last_Name» (“«Last_Name»“).
WHEREAS, «Last_Name» is expected to perform valuable services for the Corporation and the Corporation considers it desirable and in its best interests that «Last_Name» be given a proprietary interest in the Corporation and an incentive to advance the interests of the Corporation by possessing shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), in accordance with the Corporation’s Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Incentive Plan adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Plan”).
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, it is agreed by and between the parties as follows:
 
1.	Grant of Restricted Stock.	
 
 	(a)	Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, the Corporation hereby grants to «Last_Name» an award of «Total_Individual_Grant» restricted shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock (the “Restricted Stock Award”), which shall vest and become unrestricted in accordance with Section 2 hereof.	
 
 	(b)	Legend. The certificate representing the shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement shall bear a legend, in addition to any other legends as appropriate, substantially similar to the following:	
“The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock represented by this certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law, is subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth in the Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. 1993 Stock Incentive Plan, as restated and amended, and rules and administration adopted pursuant to such Plan, and a Restricted Stock Agreement dated «Date». A copy of the Plan, such rules and such Restricted Stock Agreement may be obtained from the Secretary of Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc.”
 
 	(c)	Transferability. Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award and not then vested and unrestricted may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, alienated, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to sell, transfer, assign, pledge, alienate, hypothecate or encumber, or otherwise dispose of such Common Stock, the Restricted Stock Award shall immediately become null and void.	

2.	Vesting.	
 
 	(a)	Time Vesting. Subject to paragraph (b) of this Section 2, the Restricted Stock Award shall vest and become unrestricted in accordance with the following schedule: «Vesting Schedule»	
 
 	(b)	Accelerated Vesting. If «Last_Name» continues to perform valuable services for the Corporation from the date of this Agreement until the occurrence of a Change of Control (as hereinafter defined), the portion of the Restricted Stock Award which has not become vested and unrestricted under Section 2(a) at the date of such event shall immediately vest and become unrestricted with respect to 100% of the Common Stock subject to this Restricted Stock Award simultaneously with the consummation of the Change of Control. A “Change of Control” shall mean and be determined to have occurred upon any one of the following events: (i) any person or entity becoming the owner, directly or indirectly, of securities representing 35% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors other than a person or entity which as of the date hereof owned, directly or indirectly, such amount or more; provided, however, that no Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred if immediately subsequent to an acquisition of securities, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of the directors are owned, directly or indirectly, by the persons who, immediately prior to such acquisition, were the owners, directly or indirectly, or at least a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, in substantially the same proportion; or (ii) (A) the Corporation shall be a party to a merger or consolidation in which persons who were the owners, directly or indirectly, or at least a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of the directors immediately prior thereto do not own, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors immediately subsequent thereto or (B) the Corporation shall sell all or substantially all of its assets (each event in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be referred to herein as a “Change of Control”). If «Last_Name» is not re-elected to the Board by the shareholders at the end of his respective term, then the portion of the Restricted Stock Award which has not become vested and unrestricted under Section 2(a) at the date of such event shall immediately vest and become unrestricted with respect to 100% of the Common Stock subject to this Restricted Stock Award.	
 
 	(c)	Removal of Restriction. Upon the date shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement become vested and unrestricted, such shares shall become freely transferable. As soon as practicable after such vesting date, the Corporation will notify its transfer agent to remove the restrictions applicable to such vested shares.	
 
3.	Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the Plan, «Last_Name» shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Corporation with	

respect to any unvested and restricted shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement; including the right to vote and to receive dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such shares of Common Stock. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in Common Stock or other property, such Common Stock or property shall be subject to the same restrictions as the shares with respect to which they were paid.
 
4.	Termination of Unvested Restricted Stock Award. If «Last_Name»‘s employment with the Corporation is terminated for any reason, the portion of the Restricted Stock Award which is not vested and unrestricted as of the date of termination shall be forfeited by «Last_Name» and such portion shall be cancelled by the Company. «Last_Name» irrevocably grants to the Corporation the power of attorney to transfer any unvested shares of Common Stock forfeited to the Corporation and agrees to execute any document required by the Corporation in connection with such forfeiture and transfer.	
 
5.	Adjustment in Event of Happening of Condition.	
In the event that there is any change in the number of issued shares of Common Stock of the Corporation without new consideration to the Corporation (such as by stock dividends or stock split-ups), then the number of unvested and restricted shares subject to this Restricted Stock Award shall be adjusted in proportion to such change in issued shares.
If the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation shall be combined, or be changed into another kind of stock of the Corporation or into equity securities of another corporation, whether through recapitalization, reorganization, sale, merger, consolidation, etc. (where such event is not a Change of Control as defined in Section 2(b) above) the Corporation shall cause adequate provision to be made whereby the unvested and unrestricted shares of Common Stock subject to this Agreement shall be adjusted so that the equitable securities received upon vesting shall be the same as if the vesting had occurred immediately prior to such recapitalization, reorganization, sale, merger, consolidation, etc.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a sale of the Company through a merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of its assets where all or part of the consideration is cash or property (other than equity securities of another corporation) and where such event is not a Change of Control as defined in Section 2(b) above (a “Transaction”), the Restricted Stock Award shall be assumed or an award of equivalent value shall be substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Restricted Stock Award, then simultaneously with the consummation of the Transaction, «Last_Name» shall fully vest in the Restricted Stock Award and all Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award shall become unrestricted. For the purposes of this Section 5, the Restricted Stock Award shall be considered assumed if, following the Transaction, the Restricted Stock Award confers the right to receive, for each share of Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award and unvested immediately prior to the Transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Transaction by holders of Common Stock held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares).

6.	Provisions of Plan. This Restricted Stock Award is granted pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Plan (which is incorporated herein by reference). In the event a provision of this Agreement conflicts with the Plan, the terms of the Plan will prevail. «Last_Name» acknowledges receiving a copy of the Plan and this Agreement. Any capitalized term not defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Plan.	
 
7.	Withholding of Taxes. The Corporation shall be entitled, if necessary or desirable, to withhold from any amounts due and payable by the Corporation to «Last_Name» (or to secure payment from «Last_Name» in lieu of withholding) the amount of any withholding or other tax due from the Corporation with respect to any Common Stock which becomes vested and unrestricted under this Agreement, and the Corporation may defer such issuance until such amounts are paid or withheld.	
 
8.	Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrator, successors and assigns.	
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed on the day and year first above written.
