We continue to deliver record performance, driven by the right business strategy, great products and a global infrastructure designed to serve the information technology needs of our customers worldwide.”
MICROS’s guidance for its fiscal 2008 first quarter ending September 30, 2007 is for revenue between $201.0 million and $204.0 million, and non-GAAP net income, excluding the currently projected share-based payment charge for the first quarter, between $21.0 million and $22.0 million, or non-GAAP earnings per share between $0.50 and $0.52. Guidance for GAAP net income is between $18.5 million and $19.0 million, or earnings per diluted share of $0.43 to $0.45.
Guidance for the fiscal 2008 year ending June 30, 2008 is for revenue between $910.0 million and $915.0 million and non-GAAP net income, excluding the currently projected share-based payment charge for the fiscal year, between $109.0 million and $111.0 million, or non-GAAP earnings per diluted share between $2.59 and $2.62. Guidance for GAAP net income is between $97.0 million and $99.0 million, or earnings per diluted share of $2.29 to $2.34.
Commencing with the fiscal 2008 second quarter, MICROS will no longer provide quarterly guidance; MICROS will continue to provide fiscal year annual guidance. MICROS management is in agreement with a growing consensus that publishing quarterly guidance may create an undue focus on short term financial performance.

We believe the inclusion of the above non-GAAP measure, excluding the effect of share-based payment charge, will be useful to investors because it will enhance the comparability of our results in recent periods to results in periods prior to our adoption of FAS 123(R). We also believe inclusion of this measure will enhance comparability of our results to results of our competitors, particularly those who did not adopt FAS 123(R) during one or more periods included in their public filings, and to the analysts’ forecasts because the analysts continue to forecast excluding the effect of share-based payment charge, the non-GAAP measure. In addition, our management uses this measure to evaluate our operating performance and compare our performance to those of our competitors. Management also uses this measure as a metric to measure performance under our executive compensation program.
The Company notes that non-GAAP financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Instead, they are based on subjective determinations by management designed to supplement our GAAP financial measures. They are subject to a number of important limitations and should be considered only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Among the limitations on the use of the non-GAAP measure are the following:
| · | The exclusion of non-cash share-based payment charges can have a significant impact on reported GAAP net income and reported GAAP diluted net income per share. |
| · | Other companies may utilize non-cash share-based payments to a significantly greater or lesser degree in relation to overall compensation than MICROS. |
| · | Other companies may calculate non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share differently than MICROS does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes. |
