     "We continue to make significant progress with our strategic and financial
goals," said Jaron Lotan, president and chief executive officer of Tecnomatix
Technologies. "For the third quarter of 2004, we achieved record revenue with
growth of 26% year-over-year and we increased our operating and net profits. In
addition, we continue to report positive cash flow from operating activities.
These results are mainly attributable to the continued deployment of our MPM
enterprise solutions across a range of vertical markets.

     "During the quarter, we enjoyed year-over-year growth across all
territories, which was mainly driven by our Mechanical division. Automotive OEMs
like Audi, BMW, Ford, GM/Opel, PSA and Volkswagen further expanded their eMPower
Enterprise deployments and Renault F1 placed an initial order for our eMPower
solution.

     "We are particularly pleased with our success in the Tier 1 automotive
supplier industry. This $500 billion- dollar industry, which manufacturers all
the major components of a car, presents a major growth opportunity for
Tecnomatix. This quarter, two U.S. companies, Visteon and Intier, placed initial
orders for our MPM Enterprise solution, joining our impressive customer base of
more than twenty of the world's top Tier-1 suppliers.

     "Outside of the automotive industry, demand for our standalone engineering
products is particularly strong. Among the companies placing orders in the third
quarter were Fanuc, a leading robot manufacturer, Fiat Avio, an Italian
aerospace company, Atomic Energy of Canada (AECL), John Deere and Westinghouse.

     "We continue to gain traction in China and Taiwan, which is driving
increased market penetration through new and repeat orders. This quarter,
several automotive customers progressed with their implementation of eMPower
Enterprise solutions including Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (SAIC),
China's largest car producer, and Yulon Motor Company, a Taiwanese car
manufacturer. We are also seeing increased adoption of MPM by the Chinese
electronics industry, with companies like Inventec, Siemens Shanghai Mobile
Communications and UMC placing orders for our eMPower for Electronics solution.

     "Our partnership with UGS is progressing well; our technical teams are
working together at several major customer sites and, this quarter, we delivered
a new version of the Teamcenter and eMPower integrated product.

     "In summary, this has been a productive quarter for Tecnomatix, exhibiting
important gains in a range of vertical markets with initial and repeat orders
for our eMPower Enterprise solution and for our standalone engineering
products," continued Lotan. "Our customers continue to report significant
productivity improvements and returns on their investments. We are on track with
our ongoing objectives to deliver real value to our customers as well as
continued financial growth and increased profitability."

     Oren Steinberg, chief financial officer and executive vice president of
Tecnomatix Technologies said, "We are maintaining our guidelines for 2004 of

growth.

     "Looking at 2005, based on our current performance and visibility, we
