Deferred revenue at the end of the quarter increased to $19.7
million, from $12.4 million at the end of the second quarter of
2004, and from $15.1 million at the end of 2004. First Six Month

Cash and Cash Flow SumTotal Systems generated cash flow from

and $1.9 million for the first six months of the year. Cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments increased from $34.7 million
as of December 31, 2004 to $36.7 million as of June 30, 2005. In
announcing the company's results, Andy Eckert, chief executive
officer, said, "We continued to expand our leadership position in
learning technology in the second quarter. We believe our
increasing scale is key to long-term success in this industry, as
evidenced by the fact that we were also cash flow positive. With
the continued growth in our deferred revenue balance and the
strength of our pipeline, I am confident that we will see strong
revenue growth in the second half of 2005." Acquisition of Pathlore
In a separate announcement today, SumTotal Systems announced the
signing of a definitive merger agreement for SumTotal to acquire
Pathlore(R) Software Corporation for approximately $48 million. At
the closing of the acquisition, Pathlore shareholders will receive
approximately $29 million in cash and 4 million shares of SumTotal
Systems common stock. The company will also incur additional cash
obligations due to deal-related and severance expenses. The company
plans to fund the cash element of the transaction, in part, by
establishing a new $22.5 million credit facility. "After surveying
our industry's landscape, it became evident that Pathlore has a
tremendous amount of momentum in complementary markets," said Andy
Eckert, CEO of SumTotal. "We believe that its growth, significant
revenue base, and profitability profile could help us reach a
critical threshold of revenue scale and profitability for our
customers, partners and investors. With similar philosophies and
cultures, complementary technology and offerings, and an unmatched
footprint, we believe the combined company will be a true
enterprise-class player in our industry with the scale to drive
innovation and customer satisfaction in a profitable manner."
