E.piphany Announces Third Quarter Revenues of $28.5 Million

    Customer Wins Include ABN Amro/Banco Real, GE Plastics, Hutchison 3G,
         Johnson & Johnson, Marriott Vacations and Rank Corporation.

    SAN MATEO, Calif., Oct. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- E.piphany, Inc. (Nasdaq: EPNY)
today announced results for the quarter ended September 30, 2001.
    For the quarter ended September 30, 2001, the company reported revenues of
$28.5 million, compared to revenues of $39.1 million in the third quarter of
2000.  Third quarter license revenues were $16.2 million and service revenues
were $12.3 million, representing 57% and 43% of total revenues, respectively.
Excluding the amortization and write-down of goodwill, stock-based
compensation and non-recurring charges, net loss for the quarter was
$15.0 million, or $(0.22) per share, compared to a net loss of $7.0 million,
or $(0.11) per share during the third quarter of 2000.
    "E.piphany executed well through the continuing economic downturn," said
Roger Siboni, president and chief executive officer.  "I was particularly
pleased with the quality of our new customers, including Epson, GE Plastics,
Johnson & Johnson, and Marriott Vacations domestically, and ABN Amro/Banco
Real, Energex, Hutchison 3G and Rank Corporation internationally.  In
challenging times like these, it is imperative that we focus on revenue as
well as internal costs.  Our improvement in service margins and low cash burn
are evidence of our successful execution."
    Kevin Yeaman, chief financial officer, added, "Our balance sheet remains
solid with approximately $338 million in cash and DSO of 43 days.  In the
third quarter, we raised service margins to more than 20% and r a one time, non-cash charge in the third quarter totaling
approximately $1.9 billion. The non-cash charge relates to a write-down of
goodwill and intangible assets for acquisitions made with stock over the last
two years. "This action recognizes macro-economic conditions have led to a
reduction in market value in the stock that we paid for these acquisitions,"
said Mr. Yeaman. Including the amortization of goodwill, stock-based
compensation and non-recurring charges, net loss for the third quarter of 2001
was $1.98 billion, or $(28.68) per share.
