Operations Overview



Our strategy for connecting creative professionals and media enterprises with
audiences in a powerful, efficient, collaborative, and profitable way leverages
our creative software tools, including ProTools for audio and MediaComposer for
video, and Avid MediaCentral Platform - the open, extensible, and customizable
foundation that streamlines and simplifies content workflows by integrating all
Avid or third-party products and services that run on top of it. The platform
provides secure and protected access, and enables fast and easy creation,
delivery, and monetization of content.

We work to ensure that we are meeting customer needs, staying ahead of industry
trends, and investing in the right areas through a close and interactive
relationship with our customer base. The Avid Customer Association was
established to be an innovative and influential media technology community. It
represents thousands of organizations and over 33,000 professionals from all
levels of the industry including inspirational and award-winning thought
leaders, innovators, and storytellers. The Avid Customer Association fosters
collaboration between Avid, its customers, and other industry colleagues to help
shape our product offerings and provide a means to shape our industry together.

A key element of our strategy is our transition to a recurring revenue-based
model through a combination of subscription offerings and long-term agreements.
We started offering subscription licensing options for some of our products and
solutions in 2014 and by March 31, 2020, had approximately 218,000 paid
subscriptions. These licensing options offer choices in pricing and deployment
to suit our customers' needs. Our subscription offerings to date have primarily
been sold to creative professionals, though we expect to increase subscription
sales to media enterprises going forward as we expand offerings and move through
customer upgrade cycles, which we expect will further increase recurring revenue
on a longer-term basis. Our long-term agreements are comprised of multi-year
agreements with large media enterprise customers to provide specified products
and services, including SaaS offerings, and channel partners and resellers to
purchase minimum amounts of products and service over a specified period of
time.

Another key aspect of our strategy has been to implement programs to increase
operational efficiencies and reduce costs. We are making significant changes in
business operations to better support the company's strategy and overall
performance. We have implemented a number of spending control initiatives biased
towards non-personnel costs to reduce the overall cost structure while still
investing in key areas that will drive growth. We have also revamped our supply
chain and logistics, and in 2019 completed our move to a lean model that
leverages a new supplier and distribution network. We are optimizing our
go-to-market

                                       18

strategy, simplifying our strategy to address specific customer markets to help
maximize our commercial success, which we expect will improve effectiveness,
while increasing efficiency and driving growth of our pipeline and ultimately
revenue.


A summary of our revenue sources for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 is as follows (in thousands):

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business



We have operations in a number of countries, which exposes us to risks
associated with public health crises such as the novel coronavirus (COVID-19)
that was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19
adversely impacted our business operations and results of operations for the
first quarter of 2020, as described in more detail under the Results of
Operations below. We expect the evolving COVID-19 pandemic to continue to have
an adverse impact on our business and results of operations, as the ongoing
pandemic is likely to continue to depress economic activity and reduce the
demand for our products and services, as well as disrupt supply chains. Although
the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and resulting economic
impacts, are highly uncertain, we expect that our business operations and
results of operations, including our net revenues, earnings and cash flows, will
be adversely impacted for at least the balance of 2020. These economic impacts
are the result of, but not limited to,:

• the postponement or cancellation of film and television productions,


          major sporting events, and music festivals;


•         delays in purchasing and projects by our enterprise customers and
          channel partners;


•         disruption to the supply chain caused by distribution and other
          logistical issues, including disruptions arising from government
          restrictions; and

• decreased productivity due to travel ban, work-from-home policies or

shelter-in-place orders.





We are focused on navigating these recent challenges presented by COVID-19
through preserving our liquidity and managing our cash flow through taking
preemptive action to enhance our ability to meet our short-term liquidity needs.
Such actions include, but are not limited to, reducing our discretionary
spending, revisiting our investment strategies, and reducing payroll costs,
including through temporary employee furloughs and pay cuts. We may be required
to take additional steps to preserve our liquidity depending on the duration and
severity of the pandemic and its impact on our operations and cash flows.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES



Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the
date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates and judgments on
historical experience and various other factors we believe to be reasonable
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the amounts of revenues and
expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

We believe that our critical accounting policies and estimates are those related
to revenue recognition and allowances for sales returns and exchanges, discount
rates used for lease liabilities, stock-based compensation, income tax assets
and liabilities, and restructuring charges and accruals. We believe these
policies and estimates are critical because they most significantly affect the
portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and involve our
most complex and subjective estimates and judgments. A discussion of our
critical accounting policies and estimates may be found in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for

                                       19
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the year ended December 31, 2019 in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," under the heading "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" and below. There have been no significant changes to the identification of the accounting policies and estimates that are deemed critical.

Revenue Recognition



We enter into contracts with customers that include various combinations of
products and services, which are typically capable of being distinct and are
accounted for as separate performance obligations. We account for a contract
when (i) it has approval and commitment from both parties, (ii) the rights of
the parties have been identified, (iii) payment terms have been identified, (iv)
the contract has commercial substance, and (v) collectibility is probable. We
recognize revenue upon transfer of control of promised products or services to
customers, which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the
terms of the underlying contracts, in an amount that reflects the consideration
we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services.

We often enter into contractual arrangements that have multiple performance
obligations, one or more of which may be delivered subsequent to the delivery of
other performance obligations. These arrangements may include a combination of
products, support, training, and professional services. We allocate the
transaction price of the arrangement based on the relative estimated standalone
selling price of each distinct performance obligation.

See Note 9 for disaggregated revenue schedules and further discussion on revenue and deferred revenue performance obligations and the timing of revenue recognition.

Leases



We have operating leases for facilities and certain equipment in North America,
Europe, and Asia. Our operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are
recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over
the lease term at commencement date. As our leases generally do not provide an
implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information
available at commencement date in determining the present value of future
payments. An average incremental borrowing rate of 6% as of January 1, 2019, the
adoption date of ASC 842, was used for our leases that commenced prior to that
date. We determined that the rate of 6% is appropriate for our operating leases
after we considered an estimated incremental borrowing rate provided by our
bank, the interest rate of our Term Loan, and the terms and geographic locations
of our facilities. See Note 5 for further discussion on our leases.

statements of operations as a percentage of net revenues for the three months

Net Revenues

Our net revenues are derived mainly from sales of products and solutions for
digital media content production, management and distribution, and related
professional services and maintenance contracts. We also sell individual
licenses for our software products through our webstore. We commonly sell large,
complex solutions to our customers that, due to their strategic nature, have
long lead times where the timing of order execution and fulfillment can be
difficult to predict. In addition, the rapid evolution of the media industry is
changing our customers' needs, businesses, and revenue models, which is
influencing their short-term and long-term purchasing decisions. As a result of
these factors, the timing and amount of product revenue recognized each quarter
related to these large orders, as well as the services associated with them, can
fluctuate from quarter to quarter and cause significant volatility in our
quarterly operating results. For a discussion of these factors, see the risk
factors discussed in Part I - Item 1A under the heading "Risk Factors" in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Asia-Pacific                        14%                19%



Products and Solutions Revenues



Our products and solutions revenues are derived primarily from sales of our
storage and workflow solutions, media management solutions, video creative
tools, digital audio software and workstation solutions, and our control
surfaces, consoles, and live-sound systems. Products and solutions revenues
decreased $19.7 million, or 36.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020,
compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 was primarily due to lower sales as a result of COVID-19.

Services Revenues



Services revenues are derived primarily from maintenance contracts, as well as
professional services and training. Services revenues increased $2.8 million, or
5.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in
2019. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily due
to strong growth in our subscription services, partially offset by lower
professional services revenue as delivery was limited due to COVID-19.

Cost of Revenues, Gross Profit and Gross Margin Percentage

Cost of revenues consists primarily of costs associated with:

• procurement of components and finished goods;

• assembly, testing and distribution of finished products;

• warehousing;

• customer support related to maintenance;

• royalties for third-party software and hardware included in our products;

• amortization of technology; and

• providing professional services and training.

Amortization of technology represents the amortization of developed technology assets acquired as part of acquisitions.

Gross Margin Percentage



Gross margin percentage, which is net revenues less costs of revenues divided by
net revenues, fluctuates based on factors such as the mix of products sold, the
cost and proportion of third-party hardware and software included in the systems
sold, the offering of product upgrades, price discounts and other
sales-promotion programs, the distribution channels through which products are
sold, the timing of new product introductions, sales of aftermarket hardware
products, and currency exchange-rate fluctuations. For a discussion of these
factors, see the risk factors discussed in Part I - Item 1A under the heading
"Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2019.

Our gross margin percentage for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased
to 61.5% from 59.3% for the same period in 2019. This increase was primarily due
to subscription margin improvement, offset by lower gross margin percentage in
all other areas of the business due to lower volumes.

Research and Development Expenses



Research and development ("R&D") expenses include costs associated with the
development of new products and the enhancement of existing products, and
consist primarily of employee compensation and benefits, facilities costs,
depreciation, costs for consulting and temporary employees, and prototype and
other development expenses. R&D expenses decreased $0.9 million, or 5.3%, for
the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. The
table below provides further details regarding the changes in components of R&D
expenses.

The decrease in personnel-related expenses for the three months ended March 31,
2020, compared to the same period in 2019, was primarily due to a decrease in
incentive-based compensation accrual and reduced travel and expenses as a result
of COVID-19. The decrease in facilities and information technology expenses for
the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, was
primarily due to our programs to increase operational efficiencies and reduce
costs. The increase in consulting and outside services for 2020 compared
to 2019 was primarily the result of increased webstore fees due to higher
transactions on our webstore.

Marketing and Selling Expenses



Marketing and selling expenses consist primarily of employee compensation and
benefits for selling, marketing and pre-sales customer support personnel,
commissions, travel expenses, advertising and promotional expenses, web design
costs, and facilities costs. Marketing and selling expenses increased $0.4
million, or 1.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the
same period in 2019. The table below provides further details regarding the
changes in components of marketing and selling expenses.

  Change in Marketing and Selling Expenses for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019

                                                                      $                  %

Total marketing and selling expenses increase                 $         411              1.7  %



The decrease in personnel-related expenses and advertising and promotions
expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period
in 2019, were primarily the result of our programs to increase operational
efficiencies and reduce costs and reduced travel and expenses as a result of
COVID-19. The increase in foreign exchange translations for the three months
ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same periods in 2019, was due to more
foreign exchange losses resulted from foreign currency denominated transactions
and the revaluation of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. The
change was primarily due to the euro-dollar exchange rate volatility. The
decrease in advertising and promotions expenses for 2020 compared to 2019 was
primarily the result of our programs to increase operational efficiencies and
reduce costs.

General and Administrative Expenses



General and administrative ("G&A") expenses consist primarily of employee
compensation and benefits for administrative, executive, finance and legal
personnel, audit, legal and strategic consulting fees, and insurance,
information systems and facilities costs. Information systems and facilities
costs reported within general and administrative expenses are net of allocations
to other expenses categories. G&A expenses decreased $1.0 million, or 7.6%, for
the three months ended March 31, 2020,

compared to the same period in 2019. The table below provides further details regarding the changes in components of G&A expenses.



    Change in G&A Expenses for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019
                             (dollars in thousands)

Total G&A expenses decrease                       $      (1,044 )         (7.6 )%



The decrease in personnel-related expenses for the three months ended March 31,
2020, compared to the same period in 2019, was primarily the result of our
spending control initiatives, a decrease in incentive-based compensation
accrual, and reduced travel and expenses as a result of COVID-19. The decrease
in consulting and outside services for the three months ended March 31, 2020,
compared to the same period in 2019, was primarily due to lower audit and legal
fees.

Provision for Income Taxes


          Provision for Income Taxes for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019
                                     (dollars in thousands)
                                              2020                 Change                2019
                                                               $             %
Provision for income taxes                $       122     $     (316 )    (72.1)%    $      438



The decrease in our income tax provision for the three months ended March 31,
2020 compared to the same period in 2019 was primarily driven by an overall
reduction in pre-tax income and a related $0.3 million deferred tax benefit
recognized in our Irish branch. The Irish benefit was partially offset by a
deferred tax provision in our German subsidiary and other changes in the
jurisdictional mix of earnings. No benefit was provided for the tax loss
generated in the United States due to a full valuation on the deferred tax
asset. In addition, the estimated annual effective tax rate excluded the United
States due to its pre-tax loss position.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security ("CARES") Act was enacted in
the United States on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act includes several income tax
provisions such as net operating loss ("NOL") carryback and carryforward
benefits and other tax deduction benefits. As noted previously, the U.S.
deferred tax asset has a full valuation; accordingly these NOL and other benefit
provisions had no impact on our financial statements for the period ended March
31, 2020. The CARES Act accelerates the alternative minimum tax ("AMT") credit
refund originally enacted by the Tax Cut and Jobs Act in 2017. Accordingly, we
have reclassified our $0.4 million receivable related to the AMT credit refund
from long-term assets to current assets at March 31, 2020.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity and Sources of Cash



Our principal sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents
totaling $81.2 million as of March 31, 2020. We have generally funded operations
in recent years through the use of existing cash balances, supplemented from
time to time with the proceeds of long-term debt and borrowings under our credit
facilities.

On April 8, 2019, we entered into an amendment to the Financing Agreement. The
amendment provided for an additional delayed draw term loan commitment in the
aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million (the "Delayed Draw Funds") for the

                                       25
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


purpose of funding the purchase of a portion of Notes in the Offer described in
Note 10 to our financial statements in Item 1 above. On May 2, 2019, we received
the Delayed Draw Funds under the Financing Agreement. We used $72.7 million of
the Delayed Draw Funds for the purchase of a portion of our Notes, $0.6 million
for the Notes interest payment, and $6.0 million for the payment of refinancing
fees. On June 18, 2019, we repaid $20.7 million of the Delayed Draw Funds. The
$79.3 million Delayed Draw Funds borrowed and that remain outstanding will
mature on May 10, 2023 under the terms of the Financing Agreement. The amendment
also modified the covenant that requires us to maintain a leverage ratio
(defined to mean the ratio of (a) the sum of indebtedness under the Term Loan
and Credit Facility and non-cash collateralized letters of credit to (b)
consolidated EBITDA under the Term Loan and Credit Facility) based on the level
of availability of our Credit Facility plus unrestricted cash on-hand (the
"Leverage Ratio Covenant"). As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all
covenants under the Financing Agreement.

After completing the Offer, we have $28.9 million of principal payments remaining on the Notes, which mature on June 15, 2020. We plan to repay the Notes in cash when they come due through available liquidity, which includes (i) cash on hand, and (ii) borrowings under our $22.5 million revolving credit facility, of which we have drawn down $22.0 million as of March 31, 2020.



Our ability to satisfy the Leverage Ratio Covenant in the future is dependent on
our ability to maintain profitability at or above levels experienced over the
last 12 months. In recent quarters, we have experienced volatility in revenues
resulting from, among other things, (i) our transition towards subscription and
recurring revenue streams and the resulting decline in traditional upfront
product sales, (ii) dramatic changes in the media industry and the impact it has
on our customers, (iii) the impact of new and anticipated product launches and
features, (iv) volatility in currency rates, and (v) in the most recent quarter,
the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. If revenues were to decrease from
the levels of the last twelve months, we would need to reduce expenses to
maintain the required level of profitability. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic,
we are closely monitoring our covenant compliance going forward.

As discussed above, while the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic,
and resulting economic impacts, are highly uncertain, we expect that our
business operations and results of operations, including our net revenues,
earnings and cash flows, will be adversely impacted by these developments for at
least the balance of 2020. To address expected reductions in net revenues and
cash flows, we have already taken steps to reduce our discretionary spending and
reduce payroll costs, including through temporary employee furloughs and pay
cuts. We may be required to take additional remedial steps, depending on the
duration and severity of the pandemic and its impact on our operations and cash
flows, which could include, among other things (and where allowed by the
lenders), (i) further cost reductions, (ii) seeking replacement financing, (iii)
raising funds through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities or
the incurrence of additional borrowings, (iv) disposing of certain assets or
businesses, or (v) applying for various programs that have been implemented by
the U.S. government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Such remedial actions,
which may not be available on favorable terms or at all, could have a material
adverse impact on our business. If we are not in compliance with the Leverage
Ratio Covenant and are unable to obtain an amendment or waiver, such
noncompliance may result in an event of default under the Financing Agreement,
which could permit acceleration of the outstanding indebtedness under the
Financing Agreement and require us to repay such indebtedness before the
scheduled due date. If an event of default were to occur, we might not have
sufficient funds available to make the payments required. If we are unable to
repay amounts owed, the lenders may be entitled to foreclose on and sell
substantially all of our assets, which secure our borrowings under the Financing
Agreement.

Our cash requirements vary depending on factors such as the growth of the
business, changes in working capital, capital expenditures, and obligations
under our cost efficiency program. We must repay the remaining amount due under
the Notes of $28.9 million on June 15, 2020, the maturity date. We expect to
fund such amount and meet our other obligations in connection with the operation
of our business and the execution of our strategic initiatives principally with
funds generated from operations, remaining net proceeds from the term loan
borrowings under the Financing Agreement, and draws of up to a maximum of $22.5
million under the Financing Agreement's revolving credit facility, which, as
stated above, we have drawn down $22.0 million as of March 31, 2020. We
anticipate that we will have sufficient internal and external sources of
liquidity to fund operations and anticipated working capital and other expected
cash needs for at least the next 12 months as well as for the foreseeable
future. We also believe that our financial resources will allow us to manage the
anticipated impact of COVID-19 on our business operations for the foreseeable
future, which could include reductions in revenue and delays in payments from
customers and partners. The challenges posed by COVID-19 on our business are
expected to evolve rapidly. Consequently, we will continue to evaluate our
financial position in light of future developments, particularly those relating
to COVID-19.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities



Cash used in operating activities aggregated $5.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2020. The decrease in cash provided by operations compared to
the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to decreased revenues
and a change in working capital.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash flows used in investing activities reflected $1.5 million used for the purchase of property and equipment. Our purchases of property and equipment largely consist of computer hardware and software to support R&D activities and information systems.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash flows provided by financing activities were primarily the result of the borrowing made on our revolving credit facility.
