1) They are not recognizing revenue agressively. They are deferring a lot, and pushing out the
sales cycle.


Liz,

The deferred revenue exceeds the accounted revenue so it is far better than it appears. Deferred revenue is $153 million but no one here seems to count that? I like companies that are conservative. Ariba is cash flow positive so additional financing is not an issue.

I would love to compare the FA of ARBA to that of AMZN sometime but not today. I had stated on numerous occasions AMZN cannot make it, they were aggressively counting revenue and and were burning a lot of cash. Nothing has changed their. AMZN will need funds again this spring.

I have no clue how AMZN and ARBA can be compared.
