            Actuate Reports Third Quarter Financial Results

               Record Non-GAAP Operating Margin of 18.4%

                License Revenues Up 32% Year-over-Year



    SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 25,
2006--Actuate Corporation (NASDAQ:ACTU), the world leader in
Enterprise Reporting and Performance Management Applications that
empower 100% of users to achieve breakthrough corporate performance,
today announced its financial results for its fiscal third quarter
ended September 30, 2006.

    Revenues for the third quarter of 2006 were $32.1 million, a 20%
increase compared with the third quarter of 2005. License revenues for
the third quarter of 2006 were $11.8 million, a 32% increase from the
year-ago quarter. Services revenues for the third quarter of 2006 were
$20.3 million, a 13% increase compared with the third quarter of 2005.

    Net income for the third quarter of 2006, as reported in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
was $2.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared with net income
of $3.7 million or $0.06 per diluted share in the third quarter of
2005. Third quarter 2006 results included a $1.7 million charge
related to FAS 123R, which requires that stock-based compensation
expense be included in GAAP results.

    Non-GAAP operating margin for the third quarter of 2006 was a
record 18.4% compared with a non-GAAP operating margin of 17.6% for
the third quarter of 2005. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter
of 2006 was $4.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared with
non-GAAP net income of $3.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share in the
third quarter of 2005.

    For the first nine months of 2006, revenues totaled $93.6 million,
an increase of 21% compared with the first nine months of 2005.
Non-GAAP diluted net income per share for the first nine months of
2006 totaled $0.15, an increase of $0.03 compared with the same period
in 2005. Cash flow from operations for the nine months ended September
30, 2006 aggregated $9.6 million.

    Non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release exclude the
following items: a) amortization charges for purchased technology and
other intangible assets resulting from the company's acquisition
transactions; b) stock-based compensation expense; c) in-process R&D
charges resulting from the company's acquisition transactions; d)
legal costs related to our litigation with MicroStrategy, Inc., which
has since been resolved; e) restructuring charges; f) an asset
impairment charge and g) an adjustment to the income tax provision.
All of these expenses are included in Actuate's GAAP results. The
income tax rate used to compute the third quarter 2006 and third
quarter 2005 non-GAAP net income was 30%.

    Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at September 30,
2006 totaled $47.5 million, an increase of $2.4 million from June 30,
2006. This amount is net of a $1.5 million cash outlay in furtherance
of Actuate's ongoing open-market share repurchase program.

    "The third quarter continued Actuate's growth in total revenues,
license revenues and profitability," said Pete Cittadini, Actuate's
president and CEO. "Our innovations continue to extend our leadership
in the Enterprise Reporting and Performance Management Applications
markets."

    "Actuate shipped two major new products during the third quarter.
Actuate 9, which shipped to customers at the end of September,
includes the first set of value-added products based on the open
source Eclipse BIRT project as well as the breakthrough SmartSheets
Security option that securely produces mass customized, data-driven
spreadsheets for millions of users. We also began shipping Actuate
Performancesoft Track during the quarter. This product first became
available at the end of July and is the first application to truly
empower executives, management teams and all individuals with the
control, insight and collaborative tools they need to manage the
activities that drive organizational performance forward."

    Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This press release contains financial measures that are not
calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP). Actuate management evaluates and makes operating
decisions using various performance measures. In addition to our GAAP
results, we also consider adjusted net income, which we refer to as
non-GAAP net income. We further consider various components of
non-GAAP net income such as non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP
operating expense. Non-GAAP net income is generally based on the
revenues of our product, maintenance and services business operations
and the costs of those operations, such as cost of revenue, research
and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative
expenses, that management considers in evaluating our ongoing core
operating performance. Non-GAAP net income consists of net income
excluding amortization of intangible assets, merger and acquisition
charges, restructuring charges, equity plan-related compensation
expenses and charges and gains which management does not consider
reflective of our core operating business. Intangible assets consist
primarily of purchased technology, trade names, customer
relationships, employment agreements and other intangible assets
issued in connection with acquisitions. Merger and acquisition charges
represent in-process research and development charges related to
products in development that had not reached technological feasibility
at the time of acquisition. Restructuring charges consist of severance
and benefits, excess facilities and asset-related charges, and also
include strategic reallocations or reductions of personnel resources.
Equity plan-related compensation expenses represent the fair value of
all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee
stock options, as required under SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004),
"Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123R). Management does not consider these
unusual expenses associated with a financial transaction to be part of
core operating performance. For purposes of comparability across other
periods and against other companies in our industry, non-GAAP net
income is adjusted by the amount of additional taxes or tax benefit
that the company would accrue using a normalized effective tax rate
applied to the non-GAAP results.

    Non-GAAP net income is a supplemental measure of our performance
that is not required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP.
Moreover, it should not be considered as an alternative to net income,
operating income, or any other performance measure derived in
accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating
activities or as a measure of our liquidity. We present non-GAAP net
income because we consider it an important supplemental measure of our
performance.

    Management excludes from non-GAAP net income certain recurring
items to facilitate its review of the comparability of the company's
core operating performance on a period to period basis because such
items are not related to the company's ongoing core operating
performance as viewed by management. Management uses this view of its
operating performance for purposes of comparison with its business
plan and individual operating budgets and allocations of resources.
Additionally, when evaluating potential acquisitions, management
excludes the items described above from its consideration of target
performance and valuation. More specifically, management adjusts for
the excluded items for the following reasons:

    a) amortization charges for purchased technology and other
intangible assets resulting from the company's acquisition
transactions; b) stock-based compensation expense; c) in-process R&D
charges resulting from the company's acquisition transactions; d)
legal costs related to our litigation with MicroStrategy, Inc., which
has since been resolved; e) restructuring charges; f) an asset
impairment charge and g) an adjustment to the income tax provision.

    The Company believes that, in general, these items possess one or
more of the following characteristics: their magnitude and timing is
largely outside of the Company's control; they are unrelated to the
ongoing operation of the business in the ordinary course; they are
unusual and the Company does not expect them to occur in the ordinary
course of business; or they are non-operational, or non-cash expenses
involving stock option grants.

    The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP
financial measures is warranted for several reasons:

    1) Such non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional
analytical tool for understanding the Company's financial performance
by excluding the impact of items which may obscure trends in the core
operating performance of the business;

    2) Since the Company has historically reported non-GAAP results to
the investment community, the Company believes the inclusion of
non-GAAP numbers provides consistency and enhances investors' ability
to compare the Company's performance across financial reporting
periods;

    3) These non-GAAP financial measures are employed by the Company's
management in its own evaluation of performance and are utilized in
financial and operational decision making processes, such as budget
planning and forecasting;

    4) These non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons to the
operating results of other companies in our industry, which use
similar financial measures to supplement their GAAP results, thus
enhancing the perspective of investors who wish to utilize such
comparisons in their analysis of the Company's performance.

    Set forth below are additional reasons why specific items are
excluded from the Company's non-GAAP financial measures:

    a) Amortization charges for purchased technology and other
intangible assets are excluded because they are inconsistent in amount
and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and
magnitude of the Company's acquisition transactions. We analyze and
measure our operating results without these charges when evaluating
our core performance. Generally, the impact of these charges to the
Company's net income tends to diminish over time following an
acquisition;

    b) Merger and acquisition charges are in-process R&D charges which
are excluded because they often vary significantly in size and amount,
and are disregarded when acquisition decisions are made;

    c) Restructuring charges are primarily related to severance costs
and/or the disposition of excess facilities driven by modifications of
business strategy. These costs are excluded because they are
inherently variable in size, and are not specifically included in the
company's annual operating plan and related budget due to the rapidly
changing facts and circumstances typically associated with such
modifications of business strategy;

    d) Certain legal costs were incurred in the successful defense of
the Company from trade secret litigation brought by a competitor,
MicroStrategy, Inc. These costs are excluded because the origin of
this litigation was outside the Company's control, the litigation was
outside the normal course and scope of the Company's ongoing legal
operations and the size and timing of the legal costs were dependent
on the particular stage of litigation at any given time.

    e) Income tax expense is adjusted by the amount of additional
expense or benefit that we would accrue if we used non-GAAP results
instead of GAAP results in the calculation of our tax liability,
taking into consideration the company's long-term tax structure. Prior
to the quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company used a normalized
effective tax rate of 37.5%. Starting in the quarter ended September
30, 2005, the company began to use a normalized effective tax rate of
30%. This item is excluded because the rate remains subject to change
based on several factors, including variations over time in the
geographic business mix and statutory tax rates.

    f) While stock-based compensation calculated in accordance with
SFAS 123R constitutes an ongoing and recurring expense of the Company,
it is not an expense that typically requires or will require cash
settlement by the company. We therefore exclude these charges for
purposes of evaluating our core performance as well as with respect to
evaluating any potential acquisition.

    g) Asset impairment costs are excluded because they inherently
vary in size and are not specifically included in the Company's annual
operating plan. Furthermore, asset impairment charges do not typically
require any cash outlay and the timing of such impairments is largely
outside of the Company's control.

    In the future, the Company expects to continue reporting non-GAAP
financial measures excluding items described above and the Company
expects to continue to incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP
adjustments described above. Accordingly, exclusion of these and other
similar items in our non-GAAP presentation should not be construed as
an inference that these costs are unusual, infrequent or
non-recurring.

    As stated above, the Company presents non-GAAP financial measures
because it considers them to be important supplemental measures of
performance. However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as
an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for the Company's GAAP results. In the future, the Company
expects to incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP adjustments
described above and expects to continue reporting non-GAAP financial
measures excluding such items. Some of the limitations in relying on
non-GAAP financial measures are:

    --  Amortization of intangibles, though not directly affecting our
        current cash position, represent the loss in value as the
        technology in our industry evolves, is advanced or is replaced
        over time. The expense associated with this loss in value is
        not included in the non-GAAP net income presentation and
        therefore does not reflect the full economic effect of the
        ongoing cost of maintaining our current technological position
        in our competitive industry which is addressed through our
        research and development program.

    --  The company may engage in acquisition transactions in the
        future. Merger and acquisition related charges may therefore
        continue to be incurred and should not be viewed as
        non-recurring.

    --  The Company's stock option and stock purchase plans are
        important components of our incentive compensation
        arrangements and will be reflected as expenses in our GAAP
        results for the foreseeable future under SFAS 123R.

    --  The company's income tax expense will be ultimately based on
        its GAAP taxable income and actual tax rates in effect, which
        may differ significantly from the 30% rate assumed in our
        non-GAAP presentation.

    --  Other companies, including other companies in our industry,
        may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we
        do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

    Pursuant to the requirements of SEC Regulation G, a detailed
reconciliation between the Company's GAAP and non-GAAP financial
results is provided in this press release and is also available in the
investor relations section of the Company's web site at
www.actuate.com. Investors are advised to carefully review and
consider this information strictly as a supplement to the GAAP results
that are contained in this press release and in the Company's SEC
filings.

(a) This table contains financial measures that are not calculated in
 accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
 Such measures are intended to serve as a supplement to the GAAP
 results presented elsewhere in this press release, and should not be
 considered in isolation or as a substitute for such GAAP results. See
 the section entitled Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in
 this press release for additional information regarding: the manner
 in which management uses these non-GAAP financial measures; the
 economic substance behind management's decision to use such measures;
 the material limitations associated with use of these non-GAAP
 financial measures as compared to the use of the most directly
 comparable GAAP financial measure; the manner in which management
 compensates for these limitations when using these non-GAAP financial
 measures; and the substantive reasons why management believes these
 non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors.

(b) Amortization of purchased technology acquired in the
 Performancesoft, Nimble and Tidestone acquisition transactions on
 January of fiscal year 2006, July of fiscal year 2003 and May of
 fiscal year 2001, respectively. Purchased technology is amortized
 over the estimated life of the underlying asset.

(c) Amortization of other intangibles includes identifiable intangible
 assets including trade names, employment agreements and customer
 relationships acquired through various acquisition transactions.
 Other identified intangibles are amortized over the estimated
 remaining life of the underlying intangibles.

(d) Prior to January 1, 2006, Actuate accounted for stock compensation
 under Accounting Principles Board, Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
 Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"). In accordance with APB 25,
 Actuate historically used the intrinsic value method to account for
 stock compensation expense. As of January 1, 2006 Actuate accounts
 for stock compensation expense under the fair value method. As
 Actuate adopted the modified prospective transition method, results
 for prior periods have not been restated under the fair value method
 for GAAP purposes. Actuate is presenting a non-GAAP adjusted net
 income per diluted share financial measure which excludes stock based
 compensation expense for all periods presented. For the three months
 ended September 30, 2006, stock-based expense included approximately
 $221, $588, $316, and $565, related to cost of services revenues,
 sales and marketing expense, research and development expense and
 general and administrative expense, respectively.

(e) Restructuring charges. These costs were directly related to our
 restructuring plan which we had initiated in the fourth quarter of
 fiscal year 2004 and primarily consisted of charges related to
 employee matters and estimated settlement costs stemming from
 employee litigation, partially offset by an early termination of the
 facility lease.

(f) Loss associated with a $500,000 investment in a privately held
 company in December, of fiscal year 2000. This investment was re-
 evaluated in the third quarter of fiscal year 2005 and an additional
 loss of $17,000 was recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. Of
 the remaining balance totaling $199,000, approximately $180,000 was
 recovered in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005. The remaining
 balance was collected in October 2006.

(g) Income tax expense is adjusted by the amount of additional expense
 or benefit that we would accrue if we used non-GAAP results instead
 of GAAP results in the calculation of our tax liability, taking into
 consideration the company's long-term tax structure. Prior to the
 quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company used a normalized
 effective tax rate of 37.5%. Starting in the quarter ended September
 30, 2005, the company began to use a normalized effective tax rate of
 30%. This item is excluded because the rate remains subject to change
 based on several factors, including variations over time in the
 geographic business mix and statutory tax rates.

(h) Shares used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share
 have been adjusted to reflect what the share amounts would have been
 if they were calculated using non-GAAP results.
