DEALERTRACK HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Business Description
DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. is a leading provider of on-demand software, and data solutions for
the automotive retail industry in the United States. Utilizing the Internet, we have built a
network connecting automotive dealers with banks, finance companies, credit unions and other
financing sources, and other service and information providers, such as aftermarket providers and
the major credit reporting agencies. We have established a network of active relationships in the
United States, which as of June 30, 2008, consisted of over 21,700 dealers, including approximately
90% of all franchised dealers; over 650 financing sources and a number of other service and
information providers to the automotive retail industry. We consider a financing source to be
active in our network as of a date if it has accepted credit application data electronically from
dealers in the DealerTrack network in that month, including financing sources visible to dealers
through drop down menus. This counting methodology reflects revisions we made in July 2008 to more
accurately reflect the number of financing sources available on the network. Prior to this revision
only financing sources available on a primary menu were counted. Our credit application processing
product enables dealers to automate and accelerate the indirect automotive financing process by
increasing the speed of communications between these dealers and their financing sources. We have
leveraged our leading market position in credit application processing to address other
inefficiencies in the automotive retail industry value chain. We believe our proven network
provides a competitive advantage for distribution of our software and data solutions. Our
integrated subscription-based software products and services enable our dealer customers to manage
their dealership data and operations, receive valuable consumer leads, compare various financing
and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, analyze inventory,
document compliance with certain laws and execute financing contracts electronically. We have also
created efficiencies for financing source customers by providing a comprehensive digital and
electronic contracting solution. In addition, we offer data and other products and services to
various industry participants, including lease residual value and automobile configuration data.
2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2008 and for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and
footnotes required for a complete set of financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair
statement have been included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. All
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2008. The December 31, 2007 balance sheet
information has been derived from the audited 2007 consolidated financial statements, but does not
include all disclosures required for a complete set of financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. For further information,
please refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) on February 28, 2008.
3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 142-3 Determination of the Useful Life of
Intangible Assets (FSP SFAS No. 142-3). FSP SFAS No. 142-3 amends the factors that should be
considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a
recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The intent
of FSP SFAS No. 142-3 is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized
intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair
value of the asset under other accounting principles generally accepted in the Untied States of
America. FSP SFAS No. 142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is
prohibited. The guidance for determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset shall be
applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. Certain disclosure
requirements shall be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and
subsequent to, the effective date.
In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement 157,
delaying the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and
interim periods within those fiscal years for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities,
except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a
recurring basis (at least annually). We are currently evaluating the impact that this statement
will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS No. 159), which permits
entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain
other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 also
establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between
entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.
SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We have elected not to apply
SFAS No. 159 to any of our existing assets or liabilities.

4. Fair Value Measurements
Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157), which defines the fair value as the exchange price that
would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or
most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy
that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to
maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels
of inputs used to measure fair values are as follows:
|
|
|
Level 1 Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the
measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest
priority to Level 1 inputs. |
|
|
|
|
Level 2 Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but
corroborated by market data. |
|
|
|
|
Level 3 Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The
fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. |
We have segregated all financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis
(at least annually) into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the
inputs used to determine the fair value at the measurement date in the table below.
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis include the following as of June 30, 2008

Cash equivalents consist primarily of money market funds with original maturity dates
of three months or less, for which we determine fair value through quoted market prices. |
|
(2) |
|
Short-term investments consist primarily of corporate bonds and municipal commercial
paper with maturity dates of one year or less, for which we determine fair value through
quoted market prices. |
|
(3) |
|
Non-current investments consist of auction rate securities (ARS) that are invested in
tax-exempt and tax-advantaged preferred stock trust securities. We classify investment
securities as available for sale, and as a result, report the investments at fair value.
Auction rate securities have long-term underlying maturities, but have interest rates that
are reset every six months or less. Our intent is not to hold these securities to maturity,
but rather to use the interest rate reset feature to provide liquidity as necessary. Our
investment in these securities generally provides higher interest rates than money market
and other cash equivalent investments. Due to the lack of observable market quotes on our
ARS portfolio due to failed auctions within the industry, we utilize valuation models that
rely exclusively on Level 3 inputs including those that are based on expected cash flow
streams, including assessments of counterparty credit quality, default risk underlying the
security, discount rates and overall capital market liquidity. The valuation of our ARS
investment portfolio is subject to uncertainties that are difficult to predict. If the
issuers of these securities are unable to successfully complete future auctions or
refinance their obligations and their credit ratings deteriorate, we may be required to
adjust the carrying value of these securities and recognize an impairment charge for an
other-than temporary decline in the fair value. We believe that we will be able to
liquidate our investment without material loss and that these securities are not
permanently impaired, however, due to the uncertainty of whether we will be able to sell
these securities within the next year we have classified our ARS as long-term at June 30,
2008. Based on our available cash and other investments, we do not currently anticipate
that the lack of liquidity caused by failed auctions will have a material adverse effect on
our operating cash flows or will affect our ability to operate our business as usual. |

5. Net Income per Share
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, we computed net income per share in
accordance SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share (SFAS No. 128). Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128,
basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing
net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, assuming dilution, during
the period. The diluted earnings per share calculation assumes that (i) all stock options, which
are in the money are exercised at the beginning of the period and the proceeds are used by us to
purchase shares at the average market price for the period and (ii) if applicable, unvested awards
that are considered to be contingently issuable shares because they contain either a performance or
market condition will be included in diluted earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128 if
dilutive and if their conditions (a) have been satisfied at the reporting date or (b) would have
been satisfied if the reporting date was the end of the contingency period.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share (in

In accordance with SFAS No. 128, for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2007, we have excluded 393,333 and 290,000
contingently issuable shares, respectively, from diluted weighted
average common stock outstanding as their contingent conditions (a)
have not been satisfied at the reporting date nor (b) would have been
satisfied if the reporting date was the end of the contingency period
(Refer to Note 15 for further information). |
The following is a summary of the weighted shares outstanding during the respective periods
that have been excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation because the effect would

8. Stock Repurchase Program
On March 18, 2008, the board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program under which we
may spend up to $75.0 million to repurchase shares of our common stock. Stock repurchases under
this program may be made on the open market, through 10b5-1 programs, or in privately negotiated
transactions in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. The transactions may be
made from time to time without prior notice and in such amounts as our management deems appropriate
and will be funded from cash on hand. The number of shares to be repurchased and the timing of
repurchases will be based on several factors, including the price of our common stock, legal or
regulatory requirements, general business and market conditions, and other investment
opportunities. The stock repurchase program will expire on March 31, 2009, but may be limited or
terminated at any time by our Board of Directors without prior notice. From inception of the
program through June 30, 2008, we repurchased approximately 1.0 million shares of common stock for an aggregate
price of approximately $19.1 million. Refer to Note 20 for subsequent purchases of stock after
June 30, 2008.

14. Income Taxes
We adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 of FIN 48, on January 1, 2007. FIN 48
specifies the way public companies are to account for uncertainty in income tax reporting, and
prescribes the methodology for recognizing, reversing, and measuring the tax benefits of a tax
position taken, or expected to be
taken, in a tax return. Our adoption of FIN 48 did not result in any change to the level of our
liability for uncertain tax positions, and there was no adjustment to our retained earnings for the
cumulative effect of an accounting change. At January 1, 2008, the total liability for uncertain
tax positions recorded in our balance sheet in accrued other liabilities was $0.1 million.
We file a consolidated U.S. income tax return and tax returns in various state and local
jurisdictions. Certain of our subsidiaries also file income tax returns in Canada. The Internal
Revenue Service has completed its examination of our federal income tax returns through 2004.
Interest and penalties related to tax positions taken in our tax returns are recorded in
interest expense and general and administrative expenses, respectively, in our consolidated
statement of operations. At January 1, 2008, the combined amount of accrued interest and penalties
related to tax positions taken on our tax returns was zero. There was no significant change to this
amount during the first six months of 2008.
15. Long-Term Incentive Equity Awards
On August 2, 2006, November 2, 2006, and July 21, 2007, the compensation committee of the
board of directors granted long-term performance equity awards (under the 2005 Incentive Award
Plan) consisting of 565,000 shares, 35,000 shares, and 10,000 shares of restricted common stock,
respectively, to certain executive officers and other employees. Each individuals award is
allocated 50% to achieving earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as
adjusted to reflect any future acquisitions (EBITDA Performance Award) and 50% to the market value
of our common stock (Market Value Award). The awards are earned upon our achievement of EBITDA and
market-based targets for the fiscal years 2007, 2008 and 2009, but will not vest unless the grantee
remains continuously employed in active service until January 31, 2010. If an EBITDA Performance
Award or Market Value Award is not earned in an earlier year, it can be earned upon achievement of
that target in a subsequent year. The awards will accelerate in full upon a change in control, if
any.
11
In accordance with FAS 123(R), we valued the EBITDA Performance Award and the Market Value
Award using the Black-Scholes and binomial lattice-based valuation pricing models, respectively.
The total fair value of the entire EBITDA Performance Award is $6.0 million (prior to estimated
forfeitures), of which, in January 2007, we began expensing on a straight-line basis the amount
associated with the 2007 award as it was deemed probable that the threshold for the year ending
December 31, 2007 would be met. We have met the EBITDA target for 2007. The total value of the
entire Market Value Award is $2.5 million (including estimated forfeitures), which is expensed on a
straight-line basis from the date of grant over the applicable service period. As long as the
service condition is satisfied, the expense is not reversed, even if the market conditions are not
satisfied. As of June 30, 2008, we have not begun to expense the
EBITDA Performance Awards for 2008
and 2009 as it has not been deemed probable that the targets will be achieved. We will continue to evaluate
the probability of achieving the target on a quarterly basis.
The expense recorded related to the EBITDA Performance Award and the Market Value Award for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 is as follows (in thousands):

16. Commitments and Contingencies
Retail Sales Tax
The Ontario Ministry of Revenue (the Ministry) has conducted a retail sales tax field audit on
the financial records of our Canadian subsidiary, DealerTrack Canada, Inc. (formerly known as
DealerAccess Canada, Inc.), for the period from March 1, 2001 through May 31, 2003. We received a
formal assessment from the Ministry indicating unpaid Ontario retail sales tax totaling
approximately $0.2 million, plus interest. Although we are disputing the Ministrys findings, the
assessment, including interest, has been paid in order to avoid potential future interest and
penalties.
As part of the purchase agreement dated, December 31, 2003 between us and Bank of Montreal for
the purchase of 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DealerAccess, Inc., Bank of
Montreal agreed to indemnify us specifically for this potential liability for all sales tax periods
prior to January 1, 2004. The potential sales tax liability for the period covered by this
indemnification is now closed due to the statutory expiration of the periods open for audit by the
Ministry. To date, all amounts paid to the Ministry by us for this assessment have been reimbursed
by the Bank of Montreal under this indemnity.
We undertook a comprehensive review of the audit findings of the Ministry using external tax
experts. Our position has been that our financing source revenue transactions are not subject to
Ontario retail sales tax. We filed a formal Notice of Objection with the Ministry on December 12,
2005. We received a letter dated November 2, 2007 from an appeals officer of the Ministry stating
that the assessment was, in his opinion, properly raised and his intention was to recommend his
confirmation to senior management of the Ministry. The officer agreed, however, to defer his
recommendation for a period of thirty business days to enable us to submit any additional
information not yet provided. We submitted additional information to the Ministry to support our
position that the services are not subject to sales tax.
We received a letter dated December 21, 2007 from the Ministry stating that no change should
be made to the appeals officers opinion. The letter further stated that we had ninety days from
the date of the letter to file a Notice of Appeal with the Superior Court of Justice. A Notice of
Appeal was filed on our behalf on March 18, 2008 to challenge the assessment because we did not
believe these services are subject to sales tax. We have not accrued any related sales tax
liability for the period subsequent to May 31, 2003, for these financing source revenue
transactions. This appeal is supported by the financial institutions whose source revenue
transactions were subject to the assessment. These financial institutions have agreed to
participate in the cost of the litigation.
In the event we are obligated to charge sales tax for this type of transaction, this Canadian
subsidiarys contractual arrangements with its financing source customers obligate these customers
to pay all sales taxes that are levied or imposed by any taxing authority by reason of the
transactions contemplated under the particular contractual arrangement. In the event of any failure
to pay such amounts, we would be required to pay the obligation, which could range from $3.9
million (CAD) to $4.3 million (CAD), including penalties and interest.
12
Commitments
Pursuant to employment or severance agreements with certain employees, we have a commitment to
pay severance of approximately $7.8 million as of June 30, 2008 and $7.5 million as of December 31,
2007, in the event of termination without cause, as defined in the agreements, as well as certain
potential gross-up payments to the extent any such severance payment would constitute an excess
parachute payment under the Internal Revenue Code.
We are a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which we may be obligated to indemnify
the other party with respect to breach of contract, infringement and other matters. Typically,
these obligations arise in the context of agreements entered into by us, under which we customarily
agree to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from breaches of representations,
warranties and/or covenants. In these circumstances, payment by us is generally conditioned on the
other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular agreement, which
procedures typically allow us to challenge the other partys claims. Further, our obligations under
these agreements may be limited to indemnification of third-party claims only and limited in terms
of time and/or amount. In some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain
payments made by us.
It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or
similar agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts and
circumstances involved in each particular agreement. To date, we have not been required to make any
such payment. We believe that if we were to incur a loss in any of these matters, it is not
probable that such loss would have a material effect on our business or financial condition.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are a party to litigation matters arising in connection with the normal
course of our business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on us. In
addition to the litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business, we
are party to the litigation described below.
DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne LLC
On January 28, 2004, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne LLC
(RouteOne) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Civil Action
No. CV 04-322 (SJF). The complaint sought injunctive relief as well as damages against RouteOne for
infringement of two patents owned by us, which relate to computer implemented automated credit
application analysis and decision routing inventions (the Patents). The complaint also sought relief
for RouteOnes acts of copyright infringement, circumvention of technological measures and common
law fraud and unfair competition.
The court approved a joint stipulation of dismissal with respect to this action. Pursuant
to the joint stipulation, the patent count has been dismissed without prejudice to be pursued as
part of the below consolidated actions and all other counts have been dismissed with prejudice.
DealerTrack, Inc. v. Finance Express et al., CV-06-2335;
DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-06-6864; and
DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-07-215
On April 18, 2006, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against David Huber, Finance
Express LLC (Finance Express), and three of their unnamed dealer customers in the United States
District Court for the Central District of California, Civil Action No. CV-06-2335 AG (FMOx). The
complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as, damages against the defendants for
infringement of the Patents. We also are seeking relief for acts of copyright infringement and
unfair competition.
On June 8, 2006, David Huber and Finance Express filed their answer and counterclaims. The
counterclaims seek damages for libel related to an allegation in the complaint, breach of contract,
deceit, actual and constructive fraud, misappropriation of trade secrets and unfair
competition related to a confidentiality agreement between the parties. On October 26, 2006, the
Court dismissed the counterclaim for libel pursuant to a motion by us.
On October 27, 2006, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne,
David Huber and Finance Express in the United States District Court for the Central District of
California, Civil Action No. CV-06-6864 (SJF). The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive
relief as well as damages against the defendants for infringement of the Patents. On November 28,
2006 and December 4, 2006, respectively, defendants RouteOne, David Huber and Finance Express filed
their answers. Finance Express also asserted counterclaims for breach of contract, deceit, actual
and constructive fraud, misappropriation of trade secrets and unfair competition related to a
confidentiality agreement between Finance Express and us.
On February 20, 2007, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne,
David Huber and Finance Express in the United States District Court for the Central District of
California, Civil Action No. CV-07-215 (CWx). The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief
as well as damages against the defendants for infringement of U. S. Pat. No. 7,181,427 (the 427
Patent). On April 13, 2007 and April 17, 2007, respectively, defendants RouteOne, David Huber and
Finance Express filed their answers. RouteOne, David Huber and Finance Express asserted
counterclaims for a declaratory judgment of unenforceability due to inequitable conduct with
respect to the 427 Patent and the Patents. David Huber and Finance Express also asserted
counterclaims for breach of contract, deceit, actual and constructive fraud, misappropriation of
trade secrets and unfair competition related to a confidentiality agreement between Finance Express
and us.
13
The DealerTrack, Inc. v. Finance Express et al., CV-06-2335 action, the DealerTrack Inc. v.
RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-06-6864 action and the DealerTrack v. RouteOne and Finance
Express et al., CV-07-215 action, described above, have been consolidated by the court. A hearing on claims construction, referred to as a Markman hearing, was held on September 25, 2007. Fact
and expert discovery are completed, as well as motions for summary judgment.
On July 21, 2008, the court resolved disputed issues of inventorship, validity, inequitable
conduct, and RouteOnes exposure to a willful infringement claim, in our favor. These rulings
eliminate certain defenses by RouteOne and Finance Express and allow our damages to be trebled if
RouteOnes infringement is found to be willful at trial.
A decision in the Markman hearing has not yet been issued. The court deferred rulings on two
additional summary judgment motions pending its upcoming Markman ruling, in which the court will
decide the meaning of certain terms in the patent claims. The court also denied our motion to
remove one defense, reserving it for trial because of questions of fact.
The parties are preparing for the trial that is currently scheduled to begin on October 28,
2008.
We intend to pursue our claims and defend any counterclaims vigorously.
We believe that the potential liability from all current litigations will not have a material
effect on our financial position or results of operations when resolved in a future period.
17. Segment Information
In accordance with SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information (SFAS No. 131) segment information is being reported consistent with our method of
internal reporting. In accordance with SFAS No. 131, 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. The chief operating decision maker reviews information at a consolidated level, as
such we have one reportable segment under SFAS No. 131. For enterprise-wide disclosure, we are
organized primarily on the basis of service lines. Revenue earned outside of the United States for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, is approximately 11% and 12% of our total revenue,
respectively. Revenue earned outside of the United States for the three and six months ended June
30, 2007 was less than 10% of our total net revenue.

Overview
DealerTrack is a leading provider of on-demand software, and data solutions for the automotive
retail industry in the United States. Utilizing the Internet, we have built a network connecting
automotive dealers with banks, finance companies, credit unions and other financing sources, and
other service and information providers, such as aftermarket providers and the major credit
reporting agencies. We have established a network of active relationships in the United States,
which as of June 30, 2008, consisted of over 21,700 automotive dealers, including approximately 90%
of all franchised dealers; over 650 financing sources and a number of other service and information
providers to the automotive retail industry. We consider a financing source to be active in our
network as of a date if it has accepted credit application data electronically from dealers in the
DealerTrack network in that month, including financing sources visible to dealers through drop down
menus. This counting methodology reflects revisions we made in July 2008 to more accurately reflect
the number of financing sources available on the network. Prior to this revision only financing
sources available on a primary menu were counted. Our credit application processing product enables
dealers to automate and accelerate the indirect automotive financing process by increasing the
speed of communications between these dealers and their financing sources. We have leveraged our
leading market position in credit application processing to address other inefficiencies in the
automotive retail industry value chain. We believe our proven network provides a competitive
advantage for distribution of our software and data solutions. Our integrated subscription-based
software products and services enable our dealer customers to manage their dealership data and
operations, receive valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and
programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, analyze inventory, document compliance
with certain laws and execute financing contracts electronically. We have also created efficiencies
for financing source customers by providing a comprehensive digital and electronic contracting
solution. In addition, we offer data and other products and services to various industry
participants, including lease residual value and automobile configuration data.
We are a Delaware corporation formed in August 2001. We are organized as a holding company and
conduct a substantial amount of our business through our subsidiaries including Automotive Lease
Guide (alg), Inc., Arkona, Inc., DealerTrack Accessories Solutions, Inc., Chrome Systems, Inc.,
DealerTrack Aftermarket Services, Inc., DealerTrack Canada, Inc., DealerTrack Digital Services,
Inc., and DealerTrack, Inc.
We monitor our performance as a business using a number of measures that are not found in our
consolidated financial statements. These measures include the number of active dealers and
financing sources in the DealerTrack network, the number of transactions processed and the number
of product subscriptions. We believe that improvements in these metrics will result in improvements
in our financial performance over time. We also view the acquisition and successful integration of
acquired companies as important milestones in the growth of our business as these acquired
companies bring new products to our customers and expand our technological capabilities. We believe
that successful acquisitions will also lead to improvements in our financial performance over time.
In the near term, however, the purchase accounting treatment of acquisitions can have a negative
impact on our net income as the depreciation and amortization expenses associated with acquired
assets, as well as particular intangibles (which tend to have a relatively short useful life), can
be substantial in the first several years following
an acquisition. As a result, we monitor our EBITDA and other business statistics as a measure of
operating performance in addition to net income and the other measures included in our consolidated
financial statements.
The following is a table consisting of EBITDA and certain other business statistics that
management is continually monitoring (amounts in thousands, except active dealers, financing source
data, and product subscriptions):

EBITDA represents net income before interest (income) expense, taxes,
depreciation and amortization. We present EBITDA because we believe
that EBITDA provides useful information with respect to the
performance of our fundamental business activities and is also
frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested
parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We rely on EBITDA
as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of
our company and management team in connection with our executive
compensation plan incentive payments. |
15
EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation, or as
a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP). Some of these limitations are:
|
|
|
EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
|
|
|
|
EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
|
|
|
|
EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or
principal payments, on our debts; |
|
|
|
|
Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have
to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and |
|
|
|
|
Other companies may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. |
|
|
|
|
Because of these limitations, EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to
invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and
using EBITDA only supplementally. EBITDA is a measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in
accordance with, GAAP. EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered
as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or
as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. |
The following table sets forth the reconciliation of EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to
net income, our most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP (in

Revenue
Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue consists of revenue earned from our
financing source customers for each credit application or contract that dealers submit to them. We
also earn transaction services revenue from financing source customers for each
financing contract executed via our electronic contracting and digital contract processing
solutions, as well as for any portfolio residual value analyses we perform for them. We also earn
transaction services revenue from dealers or other service and information providers, such as
aftermarket providers, vehicle sales lead distributors, and credit report providers, for each
fee-bearing product accessed by dealers.
16
Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue includes revenue earned from our
customers (typically on a monthly basis) for use of our subscription or license-based products and
services. Some of these subscription services enable dealer customers to manage their dealership
data and operations, obtain valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options
and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, analyze inventory, and execute
financing contracts electronically.
Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses
Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue primarily consists of expenses related to running our network
infrastructure (including Internet connectivity and data storage), amortization expense on acquired
intangible assets, compensation and related benefits for network and technology development
personnel, amounts paid to third parties pursuant to contracts under which a portion of certain
revenue is owed to those third parties (revenue share), direct costs (printing, binding, and
delivery) associated with our residual value guides, installation and hardware costs associated
with our dealership management system product offering, expenses related to our digital contract
business, allocated overhead and amortization associated with capitalization of software.
Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses consist primarily of compensation
and related benefits, consulting fees and other operating expenses associated with our product
development departments. The product development departments perform research and development, as
well as enhance and maintain existing products.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, facility costs and professional services
fees for our sales, marketing, customer service and administrative functions.
We allocate overhead such as occupancy and telecommunications charges, and depreciation
expense to all departments based on headcount, as we believe this to be the most accurate measure.
As a result, a portion of general overhead expenses is reflected in our cost of revenue and each
operating expense category.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our managements discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
is based on 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
consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect
the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the disclosure of contingent
liabilities.
Our critical accounting policies are those that we believe are both important to the portrayal
of our financial condition and results of operations and that involve difficult, subjective or
complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that
are inherently uncertain. The estimates are based on historical experience and on various
assumptions about the ultimate outcome of future events. Our actual results may differ from these
estimates in the event unforeseen events occur or should the assumptions used in the estimation
process differ from actual results. Management believes there have been no material changes during
the six months ended June 30, 2008 to the critical accounting policies discussed in the section
entitled Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, filed with the SEC on February
28, 2008.

Total net revenue increased $4.7 million, or 8%, to $63.2 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2008 from $58.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007.
Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue decreased $2.3 million, or 6%, to
$36.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $38.6 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2007. The decrease was primarily the result of a decline in the volume of
transactions processed through our network to 21.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008
from 23.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The 10% decrease in transaction volume,
as compared to the same period of the prior year, resulted in a $4.2 million reduction in revenue
in the current quarter. The tightening of the credit markets caused a significant decline in the
number of lending relationships between the various financing sources and automotive dealers
available through our network; this, together with the overall decrease in automobile sales has
meaningfully impacted our transaction volume compared to historical levels. The revenue decline of
$4.2 million related to the decrease in transaction volume was offset by a $1.9 million increase in
the average transaction price to $1.73 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $1.64 for the
three months ended June 30, 2007. The contributing factor to the increase in average transaction
price was the 47% increase in financing source customers active in our network to 659 as of June
30, 2008 from 447 as of June 30, 2007. The additional 212 financing source customers added are
lower transaction volume customers with higher price per application tiers.
18
Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue increased $5.5 million, or 31%,
to $22.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $17.4 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2007. Revenue growth was favorably impacted by the increase in the total number of
subscriptions to 31,499 as of June 30, 2008 from 25,621 as of June 30, 2007, together with a 3%
increase in the average subscription price to $246 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from
$238 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. These factors contributed $5.1 million to the
increase in revenue which includes $2.5 million related to acquisitions.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased $3.7 million, or 15%, to $27.9 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2008 from $24.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The
$3.7 million increase was primarily the result of increased amortization and depreciation charges
of $0.3 million, increased compensation and benefits related costs of $1.5 million and increased
occupancy and telecommunications costs of $0.2 million both due to overall headcount additions and
salary increases, $0.6 million of technology expense and $0.9 million in cost of revenue from our
dealer management system business.
Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses increased $0.8 million, or 35%, to
$3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $2.3 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2007. The $0.8 million increase was primarily a result of increased compensation and
related benefit costs of $0.7 million due to overall headcount additions and salary increases.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased $5.7 million, or 26%, to $28.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from
$22.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The $5.7 million increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased compensation and related
benefit costs of approximately $2.4 million due to headcount additions and salary increases, $2.3
million in increased professional fees related primarily to pending litigation and $0.9 million in
increased stock-based compensation expense due to additional stock options and restricted common
stock awards granted since June 30, 2007.

The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2008 of $2.2 million
consisted primarily of $0.6 million of federal tax expense, $0.3 million of state and local income
taxes, and $1.3 million of tax expense for our Canadian subsidiary. The provision for income taxes
for the three months ended June 30, 2007 of $4.6 million consisted primarily of $3.0 million of
federal tax expense, $0.3 million of state and local income taxes, $0.6 million of adjustments due
to a change in the New York State tax rate, and $0.7 million of tax expense for our Canadian
subsidiaries. Included in tax expense for our Canadian subsidiary for the three months ended June
30, 2008 and 2007 is $0.4 million
and $0.3 million, respectively, for a permanent item relating to intangible amortization. These
amounts have a 7% and 3% impact on the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2008
and 2007, respectively.

Total net revenue increased $17.3 million, or 16%, to $127.5 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2008 from $110.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue increased $1.6 million, or 2%, to
$74.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $72.9 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2007. This increase was less than expected due to the decline in the volume of
transactions processed through our network to 44.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008
from 46.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The 3% decrease in transaction volume, as
compared to the same period for the prior year, resulted in a $2.1 million reduction in revenue in
the first half of 2008. The tightening of the credit markets caused a significant decline in the
number of lending relationships between the various financing sources and automotive dealers
available through our network; this together with the overall decrease in automobile sales, has
meaningfully impacted our transaction volume compared to historical levels. The revenue decline of
$2.1 million related to the decrease in transaction volume was offset by a $3.6 million increase in
the average transaction price to $1.66 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $1.58 for the
six months ended June 30, 2007. The contributing factor to the increase in average transaction
price was the 47% increase in financing source customers active in our network to 659 as of June 30,
2008 from 447 as of June 30, 2007. The additional 212 financing source customers added are lower
transaction volume customers with higher price per application tiers.
Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue increased $12.1 million, or 36%,
to $45.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $33.2 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2007. Revenue growth was favorably impacted by the increase in the total number of
subscriptions to 31,499 as of June 30, 2008 from 25,621 as of June 30, 2007, together with a 6%
increase in the average subscription price to $249 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $236
for the six months ended June 30, 2007. These factors contributed $11.2 million to the increase in
revenue which includes $5.3 million related to acquisitions.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased $11.0 million, or 24%, to $56.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2008 from $45.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The $11.0
million increase was primarily the result of increased amortization and depreciation charges of
$2.7 million primarily relating to the acquired identifiable intangibles from our 2007 acquisitions
of Arkona, AutoStyleMart, Curomax, and the asset acquisition of certain assets from Manheim
Auctions, coupled with increased compensation and related benefits costs of $3.8 million and
increased occupancy and telecommunications costs of $0.4 million due to overall headcount additions
and salary increases, $1.3 million of technology expense, $1.7 million in cost of revenue from our
dealer management system business and $0.5 million in cost of revenue from our digital contract
business.
Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses increased $1.5 million or 34%, to
$6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $4.7 million for the six months ended June
30, 2007. The $1.5 million increase was primarily a result of increased compensation and related
benefit costs of $1.3 million due to headcount additions and salary increases.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased $14.2 million, or 33%, to $57.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $43.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The $14.2 million increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit
costs of approximately $5.5 million due to headcount additions and salary increases, $5.4 million
in increased professional fees related primarily to pending litigation, $2.0 million in increased
stock-based compensation expense due to additional stock options and restricted common stock awards
granted since June 30, 2007 and $0.5 million in increased depreciation expense.

(4,168 |

(8,059 |

The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2008 of $4.2 million
consisted primarily of $1.6 million of federal tax expense, $0.5 million of state and local income
taxes, and $2.1 million of tax expense for our Canadian subsidiary. The provision for income taxes
for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $8.1 million consisted primarily of $5.9 million of
federal tax expense, $0.8 million of state and local income taxes, $0.6 million of adjustments due
to a change in the New York State tax rate, and $0.8 million of tax expense for our Canadian
subsidiaries. Included in tax expense for our Canadian subsidiary for the six months ended June 30,
2008 and 2007 is $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for a permanent item relating to
intangible amortization. These amounts have a 7% and 3% impact on the effective tax rate for the
six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity requirements will continue to be for working capital, acquisitions, capital
expenditures and general corporate purposes. Our capital expenditures, software and web site
development costs for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $7.9 million, of which $7.4 million
was in cash. We expect to finance our future liquidity needs through working capital and cash flows
from operations, however future acquisitions or other strategic initiatives may require us to incur
or seek additional financing. On April 15, 2008, our $25.0 million revolving credit facility
expired and was not renewed.
As of June 30, 2008, we had $168.0 million of cash and cash equivalents, $35.3 million in
short-term investments, $12.8 million in non-current investments and $214.5 million in working
capital, as compared to $50.6 million of cash and cash equivalents, $169.6 million in short-term
investments and $222.8 million in working capital as of December 31, 2007.
Under our stock repurchase program we may spend up to an additional $55.9 million to purchase
our common stock through March 31, 2009, but may be limited or terminated at any time by our Board
of Directors without prior notice.
Under the terms of the merger agreement with AutoStyleMart, Inc. and Curomax Corporation, we
have future contingent payment obligations of up to $11.0 million and $1.8 million in cash,
respectively, based upon the achievement of certain operational targets. As of June 30, 2008, we
are uncertain if the operational targets for the earnouts will be achieved, and as such no
compensation expense or purchase price has been recorded in connection with these contingent
payment obligations. We will continue to re-assess the probability of achievement of the
operational targets on a quarterly basis. For further information see Note 3 included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Reductions in interest rates could materially impact our interest income and may negatively
impact future reported operating results and earnings per share.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities of $24.3 million for the six months ended June 30,
2008 was primarily attributable to net income of $5.4 million, which includes depreciation and
amortization of $20.2 million, amortization of stock-based compensation of $7.0 million, an
increase to the provision for doubtful accounts and sales credits of $3.6 million, and an increase
to deferred revenue and other current liabilities of $1.5 million, partially offset by decreases in
accounts payable and accrued expenses of $6.5 million, a deferred tax benefit of $1.1 million, a
stock-based compensation windfall tax benefit of $0.3 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and
other current assets of $1.8 million, and an increase in accounts receivable of $4.2 million due to
an overall increase in revenue. Net cash provided by operating activities of $20.5 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2007 was primarily attributable to net income of $11.1 million, which
includes depreciation and amortization of $16.9 million, amortization of stock-based compensation
of $4.6 million, an increase to the provision for doubtful accounts and sales credits of $2.4
million, and an increase to deferred revenue and other current liabilities of $1.0 million,
partially offset by a deferred tax benefit of $3.1 million, a stock-based compensation windfall tax
benefit of $1.7 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $8.2 million due to an overall
increase in revenue, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $3.6 million.
21
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities of $111.1 million for the six months ended June 30,
2008 was primarily attributable to the net sale of investments of $120.8 million offset by capital
expenditures of $3.0 million, an increase in capitalized software and web site development costs of
$4.4 million, and the payment for net assets acquired of $2.4 million. Net cash used in investing
activities of $38.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was attributable to capital
expenditures of $3.0 million, an increase in capitalized software and website development costs of
$2.1 million, and payments for net assets acquired of $99.4 million, offset by the net sale of
short-term investments of $66.1 million.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities of $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008
was primarily attributable to the repurchase of 1.0 million shares of common stock for an aggregate
price of approximately $19.1 million, offset by the net proceeds received from employee stock
purchases under our employee stock purchase plan of $1.1 million and the exercise of employee stock
options of $0.8 million. Net cash provided by financing activities of $3.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2007 was attributable to the receipt of cash proceeds from the exercise of
employee stock options of $1.6 million, net proceeds received from employee stock purchases under
our employee stock purchase plan of $0.8 million, and stock-based compensation windfall tax benefit
of $1.7 million.
Contractual Obligations
As of June 30, 2008, there were no material changes in our contractual obligations as
disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2007 except for our $0.3 million inventory
purchase commitment disclosed as of March 31, 2008 which has
been resolved as of June 30, 2008.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or relationships with unconsolidated
entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or
special purpose entities, which are typically established for the purpose of facilitating
off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.
Industry Trends
The number of dealers serviced and the level of indirect financing and leasing by our
participating financing source customers, special promotions by automobile manufacturers and the
level of indirect financing and leasing by captive finance companies not available in our network
impact our business. Our business may be affected by these and other economical, seasonal and
promotional trends in the indirect automotive finance market.
Effects of Inflation
Our monetary assets, consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and
long-term investments, and our non-monetary assets, consisting primarily of intangible assets and
goodwill, are not affected significantly by inflation. We believe that replacement costs of
equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements will not materially affect our operations. However,
the rate of inflation affects our expenses, which may not be readily recoverable in the prices of
products and services we offer.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Foreign Currency Exposure
We only have operations located in, and provide services to, customers in the United States
and Canada. Our earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar as compared
with the Canadian dollar. Our exposure is mitigated, in part, by the fact that we incur certain
operating costs in the same foreign currency in which revenue is denominated. The foreign currency
exposure that does exist is limited by the fact that the majority of transactions are paid
according to our standard payment terms, which are generally short-term in nature.
Interest Rate Exposure
As of June 30, 2008, we had cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and non-current
investments of $216.2 million invested in money market instruments, corporate bonds, municipal
commercial paper, and tax-exempt auction rate securities and tax advantaged preferred stock trust securities. Such
investments are subject to interest rate and credit risk. Our policy of investing in securities
with original maturities of three months or less minimizes our interest and credit risk.
As of June 30, 2008, approximately $12.8 million of our investment portfolio consisted
primarily of state and local government, universities and preferred stock trust securities. If the
issuers of these securities are unable to successfully complete future auctions or refinance their
obligations and their credit ratings deteriorate, we may be required to adjust the carrying value
of these securities and recognize an impairment charge for an other-than-temporary decline in fair
value. As of June 30, 2008, we have $0.5 million in
unrealized losses. We believe that we will be able to liquidate our investment without material loss and that these securities are not
permanently impaired, however due to the uncertainty of whether we will be able to sell these
securities within the next year, we have reclassified them to long-term at June 30, 2008. Based on
our available cash and other investments, we do not currently anticipate the lack of liquidity
caused by failed auctions, if any, related to these securities will have a material adverse effect
on our operating cash flows or will affect our ability to operate our business as usual.
22
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our
management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating our disclosure
controls and procedures, we and our management recognize that any controls and procedures, no
matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the
desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in
evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our chief
executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that they believe that, as of the end
of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter
ended June 30, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are a party to litigation matters arising in connection with the normal
course of our business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on us. In
addition to the litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business, we
are party to the litigation described below.
DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne LLC
On January 28, 2004, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne LLC
(RouteOne) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Civil Action
No. CV 04-322 (SJF). The complaint sought injunctive relief as well as damages against RouteOne for
infringement of two patents owned by us, which relate to computer implemented automated credit
application analysis and decision routing inventions (the Patents). The complaint also sought relief
for RouteOnes acts of copyright infringement, circumvention of technological measures and common
law fraud and unfair competition.
The court approved a joint stipulation of dismissal with respect to this action. Pursuant
to the joint stipulation, the patent count has been dismissed without prejudice to be pursued as
part of the below consolidated actions and all other counts have been dismissed with prejudice.
DealerTrack, Inc. v. Finance Express et al., CV-06-2335;
DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-06-6864; and
DealerTrack Inc. v. RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-07-215
On April 18, 2006, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against David Huber, Finance
Express LLC (Finance Express), and three of their unnamed dealer customers in the United States
District Court for the Central District of California, Civil Action No. CV-06-2335 AG (FMOx). The
complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as, damages against the defendants for
infringement of the Patents. We also are seeking relief for acts of copyright infringement and
unfair competition.
On June 8, 2006, David Huber and Finance Express filed their answer and counterclaims. The
counterclaims seek damages for libel related to an allegation in the complaint, breach of contract,
deceit, actual and constructive fraud, misappropriation of trade secrets and unfair competition
related to a confidentiality agreement between the parties. On October 26, 2006, the Court
dismissed the counterclaim for libel pursuant to a motion by us.
On October 27, 2006, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne,
David Huber and Finance Express in the United States District Court for the Central District of
California, Civil Action No. CV-06-6864 (SJF). The complaint seeks declaratory and
injunctive relief as well as damages against the defendants for infringement of the Patents. On
November 28, 2006 and December 4, 2006, respectively, defendants RouteOne, David Huber and Finance
Express filed their answers. Finance Express also asserted counterclaims for breach of contract,
deceit, actual and constructive fraud, misappropriation of trade secrets and unfair competition
related to a confidentiality agreement between Finance Express and us.
On February 20, 2007, we filed a Complaint and Demand for Jury Trial against RouteOne,
David Huber and Finance Express in the United States District Court for the Central District of
California, Civil Action No. CV-07-215 (CWx). The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief
as well as damages against the defendants for infringement of U. S. Pat. No. 7,181,427 (the 427
Patent). On April 13, 2007 and April 17, 2007, respectively, defendants RouteOne, David Huber and
Finance Express filed their answers. RouteOne, David Huber and Finance Express asserted
counterclaims for a declaratory judgment of unenforceability due to inequitable conduct with
respect to the 427 Patent and the Patents. David Huber and Finance Express also asserted
counterclaims for breach of contract, deceit, actual and constructive fraud, misappropriation of
trade secrets and unfair competition related to a confidentiality agreement between Finance Express
and us.

The DealerTrack, Inc. v. Finance Express et al., CV-06-2335 action, the DealerTrack Inc. v.
RouteOne and Finance Express et al., CV-06-6864 action and the DealerTrack v. RouteOne and Finance
Express et al., CV-07-215 action, described above, have been consolidated by the court. A hearing
on claims construction, referred to as a Markman hearing, was held on September 25, 2007. Fact
and expert discovery are completed, as well as motions for summary judgment.
On July 21, 2008, the court resolved disputed issues of inventorship, validity, inequitable
conduct, and RouteOnes exposure to a willful infringement claim, in our favor. These rulings
eliminate certain defenses by RouteOne and Finance Express and allow our damages to be trebled if
RouteOnes infringement is found to be willful at trial.
A decision in the Markman hearing has not yet been issued. The court deferred rulings on two
additional summary judgment motions pending its upcoming Markman ruling, in which the court will
decide the meaning of certain terms in the patent claims. The court also denied our motion to
remove one defense, reserving it for trial because of questions of fact.
The parties are preparing for the trial that is currently scheduled to begin on October 28,
2008.
We intend to pursue our claims and defend any counterclaims vigorously.
We believe that the potential liability from all current litigations will not have a material
effect on our financial position or results of operations when resolved in a future period.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you
should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section entitled Risk Factors in Part I,
Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, which was filed
with the SEC on February 28, 2008, that could materially affect our business, financial condition
or results of operations. The risks described in that Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only
risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently
deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or
results of operations. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer
From time to time, in connection with the vesting of restricted common stock under our Amended
and Restated 2005 Incentive Award Plan, we may receive shares of our common stock from certain
restricted common stockholders in consideration of the tax withholdings due upon the vesting of
restricted common stock. Additionally, on March 18, 2008, the board of directors authorized a stock
repurchase programs under which we may spend up to $75.0 million to repurchase our common stock.
Stock repurchases under this program may be made on the open market, through 10b5-1 programs, or in
privately negotiated transactions in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.
The transactions may be made from time to time without prior notice and in such amounts as
management deems appropriate and will be funded from cash on hand. The number of shares to be
repurchased and the timing of repurchases will be based on several factors, including the price of
our common stock, legal or regulatory requirements, general business and market conditions, and
other investment opportunities. The stock repurchase program will expire on March 31, 2009, but may
be limited or terminated at any time by the Board of Directors without prior notice. During the
first six months of 2008, we repurchased approximately 1.0 million shares of our common stock
pursuant to the repurchase program for an aggregate price of approximately $19.1 million.
The following table sets forth the repurchases for the three months ended June 30, 2008:
