key milestone in the quarter was the early closure of the Revit acquisition on

Information Systems Division delivered strong year over year growth of 27% and
net revenues of $27 million.

Revenue outlook:

Net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal year 2003 are expected to range between $210 million and $220 million. This brings the company's net revenue expectations for the fiscal year 2003 to a range between $950 million and $1 billion.

These revenue expectations are subject to a number of risks, including further slowing in the worldwide economies, especially in Europe Europe (yr`əp), 6th largest continent, c.4,000,000 sq mi (10,360,000 sq km) including adjacent islands (1992 est. pop. 512,000,000).  and Japan, further slowing in the manufacturing and entertainment sectors, failure to achieve further customer acceptance of the AutoCAD A full-featured CAD program from Autodesk that runs on PCs, Macs and Unix workstations.
