Statements in this news release, and management's comments and responses to
questions during the earnings call referenced in this release, concerning future
results, performance or expectations, the results of the company's development
efforts, and the benefits to clients of Eclipsys solutions are forward-looking
statements. Actual results may differ from those projected due to a variety of
risks and uncertainties. Sales may be slower than expected due to market
conditions, competition, and other factors. Costs may be greater than
anticipated due to the potential need to increase spending to ensure performance
in accordance with commitments to clients. Software development may take longer
and cost more than expected, and incorporation of anticipated features and
functionality may be delayed, due to various factors including programming and
integration challenges and resource constraints. Implementation and
customization of Eclipsys software is complex and time-consuming. Contract
results depend upon a variety of factors and can vary by client. Each client's
circumstances are unique and may include unforeseen issues that make it more
difficult than anticipated to implement or derive benefit from software,
outsourcing or consulting services. The success and timeliness of the company's
services often depend at least in part upon client involvement, which can be
difficult to control. Eclipsys is required to meet specified performance
standards, and client contracts can be terminated or their scope reduced under
certain circumstances. More information about company risks is available in
recent Form 10-K, 10-Q and other filings made by Eclipsys from time to time with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Special attention is directed to the
portions of those documents entitled "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
