As Compuware continues to emphasize solution selling, deals are becoming
more complex, increasing the likelihood that software transactions will be
recognized ratably over the maintenance term. Therefore to understand the
health of Compuware's software business, we believe it is important to
also consider the amount of product commitments (a non-GAAP disclosure)
during the reported periods. Compuware now evaluates company performance
for purposes of executive bonuses based in part on product commitments for
the fiscal year.
Prior periods were adjusted to conform with current period presentation.
