BUSINESS OUTLOOK FOR 2004
Manhattan Associates currently intends to publish, in each quarterly earnings
release, certain expectations with respect to future financial performance. The
following statements regarding future financial performance are based on current
expectations, which includes a modestly improving spending environment for
information technology. These statements are forward looking. Actual results may
differ materially, especially in the current uncertain economic environment.
These statements do not reflect the potential impact of mergers, acquisitions or
other business combinations that may be completed after the date of this
release.
Manhattan Associates will make its earnings release and published expectations
available on its Web site (www.manh.com). Beginning June 15, 2004, Manhattan
Associates will observe a "Quiet Period" during which Manhattan Associates and
its representatives will not comment concerning previously published financial
expectations. Prior to the start of the Quiet Period, the public can continue to
rely on the expectations published in this Business Outlook section as still
being Manhattan Associates' current expectation on matters covered, unless
Manhattan Associates publishes a notice stating otherwise. The public should not
rely on previously published expectations during the Quiet Period, and Manhattan
Associates disclaims any obligation to update any previously published financial
expectations during the Quiet Period. The Quiet Period will extend until the
date when Manhattan Associates' next quarterly earnings release is published,
presently scheduled for the fourth week of July 2004.
For the year ending December 31, 2004, Manhattan affirms its expectation to
achieve adjusted earnings, which excludes the amortization of
acquisition-related intangibles in
the range of $0.91 to $1.04 per fully diluted share and GAAP earnings per share
of $0.83 to $0.96 per fully diluted share. These expectations assume that the
current general economic and capital spending environment will improve modestly
over the course of the year.
