ANSYS, Inc. Reports Another Record Quarter and Raises 2007 Outlook

        Second Quarter Results Set Path for a Year of Record Results

    SOUTHPOINTE, Pa., Aug. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ANSYS, Inc. (Nasdaq:
ANSS), a global innovator of simulation software and technologies designed
to optimize product development processes, today announced a new Company
record for second quarter non-GAAP operating results.
    Commenting on the second quarter performance, Jim Cashman, ANSYS
President and CEO stated, "This quarter's results continue the momentum
that we have seen building over the past several quarters and reflect the
strength of our diversified global business. We have made encouraging
progress during the recent quarter and first half of 2007 to capture the
strength of combining the ANSYS and Fluent businesses into a broad
portfolio of unprecedented engineering simulation solutions. Compared to a
year ago, this quarter's non- GAAP revenues increased over 35% while
non-GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 43%. We have also continued
to focus on strengthening our margins and balance sheet. These efforts
produced record cash flows from operations of $37 million for the second
quarter and $59 million for the first six months of 2007. Based on our
first half performance, we are increasing our 2007 full year guidance and
believe we are poised to drive 2007 to be the most successful year in the
Company's 37 year history."
    ANSYS' second quarter and year-to-date 2007 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. The 2006 non-GAAP
results also exclude a one-time charge related to in-process research and
development associated with the acquisition of Fluent. Non-GAAP and GAAP
results reflect:
    -- Total non-GAAP revenue of $92.3 million in the second quarter of 2007
       as compared to $68.2 million in the second quarter of 2006; total non-
       GAAP revenue of $181.9 million in the first six months of 2007 as
       compared to $114.2 million in the first six months of 2006; total GAAP
       revenue of $92.2 million in the second quarter of 2007 as compared to
       $62.3 million in the second quarter of 2006; total GAAP revenue of
       $180.1 million in the first six months of 2007 as compared to $108.3
       million in the first six months of 2006;

    -- A non-GAAP operating profit margin of 43.4% in the second quarter of
       2007 as compared to 38.1% in the second quarter of 2006; a non-GAAP
       operating profit margin of 43.0% in the first six months of 2007 as
       compared to 40.2% in the first six months of 2006; a GAAP operating
       profit margin of 33.0% in the second quarter of 2007 as compared to
       (23.3%) in the second quarter of 2006; a GAAP operating profit margin
       of 31.8% in the first six months of 2007 as compared to 3.1% in the
       first six months of 2006;

    -- Non-GAAP net income of $24.6 million in the second quarter of 2007 as
       compared to $16.5 million in the second quarter of 2006; non-GAAP net
       income of $48.1 million in the first six months of 2007 as compared to
       $31.0 million in the first six months of 2006; GAAP net income of $18.3
       million in the second quarter of 2007 as compared to GAAP net loss of
       $19.4 million in the second quarter of 2006; GAAP net income of $34.4
       million in the first six months of 2007 as compared to GAAP net loss of
       $6.5 million in the first six months of 2006; and

    -- Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.30 in the second quarter of
       2007 as compared to $0.21 in the second quarter of 2006; non-GAAP
       diluted earnings per share of $0.59 in the first six months of 2007 as
       compared to $0.43 in the first six months of 2006; GAAP diluted
       earnings per share of $0.23 in the second quarter of 2007 as compared
       to GAAP diluted loss per share of ($0.27) in the second quarter of
       2006; GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.43 in the first six months
       of 2007 as compared to GAAP diluted loss per share of ($0.09) in the
       first six months of 2006.
    The Company's GAAP results reflect stock-based compensation charges of
approximately $2.1 million ($1.8 million after tax) or $0.02 diluted
earnings per share for the second quarter of 2007 and approximately $4.3
million ($3.6 million after tax) or $0.04 diluted earnings per share for
the first six months of 2007.
    The non-GAAP financial results highlighted above, and the non-GAAP
financial outlook for 2007 discussed below, represent non-GAAP financial
measures. A reconciliation of these measures to the appropriate GAAP
measures, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006,
and for the 2007 financial outlook, is included in the condensed financial
information included in this release.
    On May 14, 2007, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
approved a 2-for-1 stock split of the Company's common shares. The stock
split was payable in the form of a stock dividend and entitled each
stockholder of record at the close of business on May 25, 2007 to receive
one share of common stock for every outstanding share of common stock held
on that date. The stock dividend was distributed on June 4, 2007. The share
data and earnings per share data in this press release give effect to the
stock split, applied retroactively, to all periods presented.
    Management's Remaining 2007 Financial Outlook
    The Company has provided its 2007 revenue and earnings per share
guidance below. The revenue and earnings per share guidance is provided on
both a GAAP basis and a non-GAAP basis. Non-GAAP revenue and non-GAAP
diluted earnings per share exclude charges for stock-based compensation, as
well as the income statement effects of purchase accounting for deferred
revenue and acquisition- related amortization of intangible assets.
    As required by SFAS No. 123R and guidance issued by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, the Company records expenses and tax benefits related
to stock-based compensation. As a result, the GAAP estimates for earnings
per share provided below reflect the anticipated impact of stock-based
compensation. The Company issues both nonqualified and incentive stock
options; however, incentive stock options comprise a significant portion of
outstanding stock options. The tax benefits associated with incentive stock
options are unpredictable, as they are predicated upon an award recipient
triggering an event that disqualifies the award and which then results in a
tax deduction to the Company. GAAP requires that these tax benefits be
recorded at the time of the triggering event. The triggering events for
each option holder are not easily projected. In order to estimate the tax
benefit related to incentive stock options, the Company makes many
assumptions and estimates, including the number of incentive stock options
that will be exercised during the period by U.S. employees, the number of
incentive stock options that will be disqualified during the period and the
fair market value of the Company's stock price on the exercise dates. Each
of these items is subject to significant uncertainty. Additionally, a
significant portion of the tax benefits related to disqualified incentive
stock options is accounted for as an increase to equity (additional paid-in
capital) rather than as a reduction in income tax expense, especially in
the periods most closely following the adoption date of SFAS No. 123R.
Although all such benefits continue to be realized through the Company's
tax filings, this accounting treatment has the effect of increasing tax
expense and reducing net income. For example, the Company realized a tax
benefit of approximately $2.0 million during the first six months of 2007
related to disqualified incentive stock options; however, only $137,000 of
such amount was recorded as a reduction in income tax expense. Because
there are significant limitations in estimating the impact of SFAS No.
123R, including those discussed above, the actual impact of stock-based
compensation on GAAP earnings per share may differ materially from the
estimated amounts included in the guidance below.
    Impact of Adoption of FIN 48
    Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No.
(FIN) 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" - an Interpretation
of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Pursuant to FIN 48, ANSYS
identified, evaluated and measured the amount of income tax benefits to be
recognized for its income tax positions. The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in
an increase to income tax expense in the second quarter and first six
months of 2007 of $470,000 and $1.1 million, respectively, and a
corresponding adverse impact on the effective tax rate of 1.6% and 1.9%,
respectively. Income taxes as a percentage of GAAP earnings before income
taxes were approximately 37% in each of the first two quarters of 2007.
This rate fluctuates over time based on the income tax rates in the various
jurisdictions in which the Company operates, and based on the level of
profits in those jurisdictions.
    Third Quarter 2007 Guidance
    The Company currently expects the following for the quarter ending
September 30, 2007:
    -- GAAP revenue in the range of $89 - $90 million
    -- Non-GAAP revenue in the range of $89 - $90 million
    -- GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.18 - $0.20
    -- Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.26 - $0.27
    Fiscal Year 2007 Guidance
    The Company currently expects the following for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2007:
    -- GAAP revenue in the range of $367 - $371 million
    -- Non-GAAP revenue in the range of $369 - $373 million
    -- GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.79 - $0.84
    -- Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.14 - $1.16
    Non-GAAP revenue and diluted earnings per share are supplemental
financial measures and should not be considered as a substitute for, or
superior to, revenue and diluted earnings per share determined in
accordance with GAAP.

    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 Company's
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
Company's 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 Company's competitors and may not be directly
comparable to similarly titled measures of the Company's 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 May 1, 2006,
ANSYS acquired Fluent Inc. in a series of mergers. 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 $31.5 million was recorded on the opening balance sheet,
which was approximately $20.1 million lower than the historical carrying
value. Although this purchase accounting requirement has no impact on the
Company's business or cash flow, it adversely impacts the Company's
reported GAAP software license revenue primarily for the second 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 Company's and management's 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 Company's 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 manager's 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
Company's operating results and the effectiveness of the methodology used
by management to review the Company's operating results, and (b) review
historical comparability in its financial reporting, as well as
comparability with competitors' operating results.
    Acquired in-process research and development. The Company incurs in-
process research and development expenses when technological feasibility
for acquired technology has not been established and no future alternative
use for such technology exists. Management excludes these expenses and
their related tax impact for the purpose of calculating non-GAAP financial
measures when it evaluates the continuing operational performance of the
Company because these costs do not relate to the Company's ongoing
operations and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management at
the time of or 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 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 expense related to in-process
research and development is a one-time item recorded on the date of
acquisition.
    Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an
alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States. The Company's 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 Company's
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:
