John Heyman, the Company’s chief executive officer commented, “We are pleased with the exceptional results we generated during the quarter. We continue to see strong demand for our products and steady execution across the business. The results of our channel partners, the signing of significant new deals and the continued success of our products provides the impetus for growing results in the second half of this year and next”

“The business continues to track well against our long-term business model,” said Mark Haidet, the Company’s chief financial officer. “We were able to increase our operating margins for the sixth consecutive quarter, with adjusted operating margins reaching 9% in the second quarter. This increase resulted from our ability to continue to drive revenue growth while leveraging our existing cost structure. The strength of the first-half results has allowed us to increase our guidance for the balance of the year. In addition, we expect to see this success carry over into 2006 with revenue growth in the range of 15% to 20% and continued improvement in our operating margin”

The Company provided guidance for the third quarter of 2005 and increased its previous guidance for the 2005 fiscal year as follows:

	Revenue Range (millions)		Adjusted Earnings / Share Range
Quarter ending September 30, 2005	$	39-$40	$	.09 - $.11
Year ending Dec. 31, 2005 – previous	$	155 - $160	$	.32 - $.38
Year ending Dec. 31, 2005 – updated	$	158 - $161	$	.38 - $.40

On Jan. 31, 2004 the Company completed the disposition of its Enterprise Software Systems segment.
