Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2006 Results Revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $19.4 million, down from $20.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005.

The Company also noted that following review and consultation with the SEC, no restatement adjustments are required for the Company's term-based, subscription software license contracts entered into after January January: see month. 2004. The nature of the restatement adjustments and the impact of the restatement on the Company's previously issued consolidated financial statements are described more fully in Note 2 to the restated consolidated financial statements and in "Management's Discussion and Analysis Management's discussion and analysis (MD&A) A report from management to shareholders that accompanies the firm's financial statements in the annual report.

Since the adjustments were solely related to the timing of revenue recognition, the total revenue and profits associated with the contracts remain the same over the life of the contracts. The restated financial statements now reflect higher levels of deferred revenue at the end of each of the previously reported three fiscal periods included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and higher reported revenue and reduced losses from continuing operations in each of those three periods.
