PTC Reports Fiscal 2004 Third Quarter Results

   -- Company Drives Significant Growth in Net Income and Cash Position --

    NEEDHAM, Mass., July 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- PTC (Nasdaq: PMTC), the
product development company(TM), today reported revenue totaling $168.4
million for the third quarter ended July 3, 2004, up 2% from $165.2 million
for the same period last year.  Revenue also grew 2% sequentially, from $164.7
million in the second quarter of fiscal 2004.
    Net income for the third quarter was $16.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted
share, compared with a net loss of $33.8 million, or a loss of $0.13 per
share, in the year-ago period.  On a sequential basis, net income improved
from $3.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2004.
The third quarter net income includes restructuring charges of $3.5 million,
compared with restructuring and other charges of $15.1 million in the year-ago
period, and restructuring and other charges of $16.7 million in the second
quarter of 2004.  Cash and investments grew 16% sequentially to $257.7 million
at the end of the third quarter, from $221.7 million at the end of the second
quarter.
    "Solid execution has resulted in significant earnings improvement and a
return to year-over-year revenue growth," said C. Richard Harrison, president
and chief executive officer.  "The work we've done to bring exciting new
products to market, combined with significant restructuring of our
distribution and services delivery models, has enabled us to improve our third
quarter net income by nearly $50 million year-over-year.  We are proud of this
performance and of the dedication of PTC employees who helped achieve these
results."
    Total design solutions revenue for the third quarter was $121.6 million,
compared to $123.0 million in the second quarter.  Design solutions license
revenue was $35.9 million, down from $38.0 million in the second quarter due
to fewer large transactions. Design solutions maintenance revenue continued to
grow, a positive indicator of the success of Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire in the
existing customer base.
    Total Windchill revenue in the third quarter grew 12% sequentially to
$46.8 million, from $41.7 million in the second quarter.  Windchill license
revenue was $16.5 million, up 27% from $12.9 million in the prior quarter.
Windchill Link solutions license revenue represented 44% of overall Windchill
license revenue.  Improved revenue performance from consulting services and
maintenance contracts also contributed to the total Windchill growth during
the quarter.
    In the third quarter, PTC received orders from leading manufacturing
organizations such as Air France Industries, Boeing Company, Chrysler
Corporation, DBT GmbH, Eni S.p.A., Fraunhofer Gesellschaft, Hino Motors,
Komatsu, LG Electronics, Otis Elevator Company, Tenneco Automotive, Toyota
Motor Corporation and the United States Army.  Additionally, orders from our
reseller channel resulted in $13.4 million in license revenue during the
quarter, a 6% sequential decline, but a 39% year-over-year increase.
    "We have shown steady improvements in our financial and operating results
and have performed well in each quarter of Fiscal 2004 to date," continued
Harrison.  "We are on track to achieve our longer-term goal of operating
margins in excess of 20%.  I am confident in our ability to grow our revenue
to reach this goal by leveraging our industry-leading solutions in the growing
PLM market, and by focusing on strategic corporate development opportunities."
