ANSYS Reports Strong Core Revenue Growth and Robust Operating Results for the Third Quarter

SOUTHPOINTE, Pa.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—November 6, 2008— ANSYS, Inc. (NASDAQ: ANSS), a global innovator of simulation software and technologies designed to optimize product development processes, today announced the Companys third quarter operating results. The Company has also provided its initial outlook for the 2009 fiscal year.

Jim Cashman, president and CEO, commented on the Companys third quarter 2008 performance stating, This quarter was another important milestone in the ANSYS journey as we completed the strategic acquisition of Ansoft. We remain optimistic that todays quarterly report, which includes two months of operations as a combined company, is only the beginning as we continue to focus and execute on our integration plan and long-term strategy for the Company. Despite uncertainties and confidence issues that are predominant in todays global economy, we continue to forge ahead and deliver business results in-line with our commitments and our proven strategy. We have a strong balance sheet, strong cash flows, solid fundamentals and a disciplined team that will help to steer us through the current business climate. We also believe that we have a resilient business model that can continue to drive profitable growth while we deliver on the ANSYS mission to lead innovation in engineering simulation. Our solid operating performance in the third quarter is a testimony to our belief that engineering simulation solutions remain a high priority for our expanding customer base even in a challenging economic environment. The business pressures on our customers to deliver innovative, high-quality products to the markets, with fewer resources, have never been greater.

ANSYS third quarter and year-to-date 2008 financial results are presented below. The non-GAAP results exclude the income statement effects of stock-based compensation, purchase accounting for deferred revenue and acquisition-related amortization of intangible assets. Non-GAAP and GAAP results reflect:

The Companys GAAP results reflect stock-based compensation charges of approximately $2.8 million ($2.3 million after tax), or $0.03 diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of 2008 and approximately $8.7 million ($7.0 million after tax), or $0.08 diluted earnings per share, for the first nine months of 2008.

The non-GAAP financial results highlighted above, and the non-GAAP financial outlook for 2008 and 2009 discussed below, represent non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of these measures to the appropriate GAAP measures, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, and for the 2008 and 2009 financial outlook, is included in the condensed financial information included in this release.

Cashman continued, Recently, we held our ANSYS 2008 International Users Conference, along with a number of regional user conferences throughout the globe. We received enthusiastic responses from customers and partners not only to our upcoming product launches, but also to our long-term vision and product strategy. We believe that the continued strength of our financial performance validates our strategy to engage customers at new levels driven by the breadth and depth of our world-class simulation capabilities. It also reinforces the importance of continued focus on our customers and their increasingly complex challenges as we build the foundation for the future.

Cashman concluded by stating, While we continue to remain optimistic about our near term outlook, and more importantly, our long-term future, we also are faced with the realities and challenges that stem from the economic uncertainty that currently exists across many markets. In spite of these, and as we have demonstrated in the past, we have a combination of internal disciplines and good business visibility which we will use to direct our focus and resources toward delivering results in line with our current outlook for 2009. Our efforts over the last several years have positioned us with a vast array of technologies that set us apart in the industry, continue to bring us new business and increase the adoption rates of ANSYS solutions with our existing customer base. While a great deal of work remains to be done, our strategies and vision have continued to be validated. The opportunity over the long haul appears to be solidifying, and we believe that the ANSYS trajectory of future technology, coupled with our focus on execution and understanding of the business drivers, should enable us to cope with current and future challenges. This is a real testament to all of our employees, partners and expanding array of customers who have propelled us in this endeavor. As we enter into the close of this year, we are committed to continuing to focus and invest to support the needs of our customers and our business, all with an eye toward generating long-term stockholder value.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

The Company provides non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating profit margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share as supplemental measures to GAAP regarding the Companys operational performance. These financial measures exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. A detailed explanation of each of the adjustments to such financial measures is described below. This press release also contains a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure.

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate the Companys historical and prospective financial performance as well as its performance relative to its competitors, (b) to set internal sales targets and spending budgets, (c) to allocate resources, (d) to measure operational profitability and the accuracy of forecasting, (e) to assess financial discipline over operational expenditures and (f) as an important factor in determining variable compensation for management and its employees. In addition, many financial analysts that follow our Company focus on and publish both historical results and future projections based on non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that it is in the best interest of our investors to provide this information to analysts so that they accurately report the non-GAAP financial information. Moreover, investors have historically requested and the Company has historically reported these non-GAAP financial measures as a means of providing consistent and comparable information with past reports of financial results.

While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors, there are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not reported by all of the Companys competitors and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of the Companys competitors due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation. The Company compensates for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplements to GAAP financial measures and by reviewing the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures.

The adjustments to these non-GAAP financial measures, and the basis for such adjustments, are outlined below:

Purchase accounting for deferred revenue. As announced on July 31, 2008, ANSYS acquired Ansoft Corporation. In accordance with the fair value provisions of EITF 01-3, Accounting in a Business Combination for Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree, acquired deferred revenue of approximately $7.5 million was recorded on the opening balance sheet, which was approximately $23.5 million lower than the historical carrying value. Although this purchase accounting requirement has no impact on the Companys business or cash flow, it adversely impacts the Companys reported GAAP revenue primarily for the first twelve months post-acquisition. In order to provide investors with financial information that facilitates comparison of both historical and future results, the Company has provided non-GAAP financial measures which exclude the impact of the purchase accounting adjustment. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial adjustment is useful to investors because it allows investors to (a) evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (b) to compare past and future reports of financial results of the Company as the revenue reduction related to acquired deferred revenue will not recur when related annual lease licenses and software maintenance contracts are renewed in future periods.

Amortization of intangibles from acquisitions and its related tax impact. The Company incurs amortization of intangibles, included in its GAAP presentation of amortization of software and acquired technology, and amortization expense, related to various acquisitions it has made in recent years. Management excludes these expenses and their related tax impact for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating profit margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when it evaluates the continuing operational performance of the Company because these costs are fixed at the time of an acquisition, are then amortized over a period of several years after the acquisition and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. Accordingly, management does not consider these expenses for purposes of evaluating the performance of the Company during the applicable time period after the acquisition, and it excludes such expenses when making decisions to allocate resources. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow investors to (a) evaluate the effectiveness of the methodology and information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (b) compare past reports of financial results of the Company as the Company has historically reported these non-GAAP financial measures.

Stock-based compensation expense and its related tax impact. The Company incurs expense related to stock-based compensation included in its GAAP presentation of cost of software licenses, cost of maintenance and service, research and development expense and selling, general and administrative expense. Although stock-based compensation is an expense of the Company and viewed as a form of compensation, management excludes these expenses for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating profit margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share when it evaluates the continuing operational performance of the Company. Specifically, the Company excludes stock-based compensation during its annual budgeting process and its quarterly and annual assessments of the Companys and managements performance. The annual budgeting process is the primary mechanism whereby the Company allocates resources to various initiatives and operational requirements. Additionally, the annual review by the board of directors during which it compares the Companys historical business model and profitability as it relates to the planned business model and profitability for the forthcoming year excludes the impact of stock-based compensation. In evaluating the performance of senior management and department managers, charges related to stock-based compensation are excluded from expenditure and profitability results. In fact, the Company records stock-based compensation expense into a stand-alone cost center for which no single operational manager is responsible or accountable. In this way, management is able to review on a period-to-period basis each managers performance and assess financial discipline over operational expenditures without the effect of stock-based compensation. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow investors to (a) evaluate the Companys operating results and the effectiveness of the methodology used by management to review the Companys operating results, and (b) review historical comparability in its financial reporting, as well as comparability with competitors operating results.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Companys non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures, and should be read only in conjunction with the Companys consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as listed below:
