“Eclipsys continues to see positive results from the organizational changes we’ve introduced over the last 24 months. We are operating at a much higher level as a business, which is evidenced by increased cash flow, improved margins, and growth in EPS,” said R. Andrew Eckert, Eclipsys president and chief executive officer. “We continue to make progress by activating more clients on our ambulatory solutions, helping clients achieve outcome improvements and winning new clients such as Bronx-Lebanon Hospital Center Health System. Another significant accomplishment this quarter was the signing of SingHealth, as it gives us an anchor client to help grow our international business.”
Continued Eckert, “We exited our low-margin networking services business, which reflects our ongoing efforts to focus on core, higher-margin elements of our business. We also announced the move of our corporate headquarters to Atlanta, Georgia. By consolidating more of our operations in Atlanta, Eclipsys will be able to reduce overheard costs and better leverage our existing investment there, including our new Outcomes Strategy Center.”
Added Eckert, “In October, we held our annual Eclipsys User Network (EUN), where we had record attendance. We believe this year’s EUN will add to our business momentum.”
Guidance
The company expects 2007 annual revenues to range from $473 million to $476 million, slightly down from earlier guidance, due mainly to the company’s decision to exit the networking services business. 2007 EPS on a GAAP basis is expected to range from $0.47 to $0.51. Excluding stock-based compensation expenses, costs related to the company’s voluntary stock option review and related derivative litigation, and costs associated with the relocation of the company’s corporate headquarters, non-GAAP 2007 EPS is expected to range from $0.77 to $0.81.

Non-GAAP Measures
The financial results reported in this press release have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). In addition to the GAAP results, the company has provided net income and earnings per share information on a non-GAAP basis: (i) for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 to exclude stock-based compensation expenses and costs related to the company’s voluntary stock option review and related derivative litigation; (ii) for the three month period ended September 30, 2006 to exclude stock-based compensation expenses; and (iii) for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 to exclude stock-based compensation expenses and restructuring charges. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, any measure derived in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may also be inconsistent with the manner in which similar measures are derived or used by other companies. Internally, management uses this non-GAAP information for forecasting and to help make management decisions, as an indicator of business performance, and to evaluate management’s effectiveness and help determine bonuses for management and others. The economic substance of omitting non-cash stock-based compensation expense in presenting non-GAAP earnings derives from providing investors with consistent measures of performance both before and after including non-cash stock-based compensation charges. The economic substance of omitting the expenses related to the company’s voluntary stock option review and related derivative litigation and restructuring charges in presenting non-GAAP earnings derives from the fact that episodic charges of this kind make it more difficult to compare operating results of different periods, not all of which include such expenses and charges. The omission of non-cash stock-based compensation expense may mask an economic cost incurred by the company in connection with stock-based compensation, and the omission of the expenses related to the company’s voluntary stock option review and related derivative litigation and restructuring charges may mask actual and expected future cash expenditures associated with such matters. Management compensates for these limitations by using both the GAAP and non-GAAP measures. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provided, when considered in conjunction with comparable GAAP financial measures, facilitate the understanding and evaluation of the company’s operating performance and future prospects, as well as comparisons of the company’s results with its prior period results that did not include these charges and with results of other companies on a more consistent basis. Omitting the stock-based compensation expense facilitates review by the majority of the company’s analysts, who model the company’s earnings excluding stock-based compensation charges. Omitting the 2007 expenses related to the company’s voluntary stock option review and related derivative litigation facilitates comparison between the 2006 and 2007 nine month periods, as no voluntary stock option review and related derivative litigation were recorded in the 2006 period. Omitting the 2006 restructuring charges facilitates comparison between the 2006 and 2007 nine month periods, as no restructuring charges were recorded in the 2007 period. The company has provided reconciling information in the attachment to this release.

Special Note
Statements in this news release or the investor call referenced herein concerning the company’s sales, marketing and operational initiatives; future financial results, operating performance, and development efforts; and the benefits provided by Eclipsys software and services are forward-looking statements and actual results may differ from those projected due to a variety of risks and uncertainties. Future performance expectations are predicated upon achievement of various sales and performance targets that may be difficult to meet. Sales may be slower than expected due to market conditions, competition, and other factors. Costs may be greater than anticipated due to the potential need to increase spending to ensure performance in accordance with commitments to clients and other factors. Software development may take longer and cost more than expected, and incorporation of anticipated features and functionality may be delayed, due to various factors including programming and integration challenges and resource constraints. The market is highly competitive. Implementation and customization of Eclipsys software is complex and time-consuming. Results depend upon a variety of factors and can vary by client. Each client’s circumstances are unique and may include unforeseen issues that make it more difficult than anticipated to implement or derive benefit from software, implementation or consulting services. The success and timeliness of the company’s services will depend at least in part upon client involvement, which can be difficult to control. Eclipsys is required to meet specified performance standards, and clients can terminate contracts, assess penalties or reduce contract scope under certain circumstances. More information about company risks is available in recent Form 10-K and other filings made by Eclipsys from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Special attention is directed to the portions of those documents entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
