Operating income for IMG increased 17 percent to $38.2 million from $32.7 million excluding the special item reported in the second quarter 1999. Operating margin for IMG in the second quarter was 20.7 percent compared to 20.1 percent in the second quarter last year. IMG's results reflect earnings from higher revenues partially offset by higher spending on research and development, higher depreciation from data center upgrades, and higher amortization of acquisition-related intangibles.

) revenues were $337.7 million, up 28 percent compared to $263.8 million in the second quarter of 1999, fueled by strong demand for services from AT&T and DirecTV DirecTV (trademarked as "DIRECTV") is a direct broadcast satellite (DBS) service based in El Segundo, California, USA, that transmits digital satellite television and audio to households in the United States, the Caribbean and Latin America except for Mexico.  as well as increases in technical support services support services Psychology Non-health care-related ancillary services–eg, transportation, financial aid, support groups, homemaker services, respite services, and other services  and web-based customer relationship management services. These revenue increases were partially offset by a decrease in traditional, program-based services.

Operating income for CMG increased 64 percent to $41.3 million, up from $25.2 million in the same period last year. Operating margin improved to 12.2 percent in the second quarter 2000 versus 9.6 percent reported in the comparable year-ago period. This marks the eighth consecutive quarter of margin improvement and stems from the profit flow-through from higher revenues and the ongoing benefits of continuous process improvements.

Orr concluded, "As we look to the second half of 2000, we are encouraged by our competitive position. Our financial results for the quarter, in addition to new customers in IP billing and customer care, exemplify our ability to execute on our growth strategies providing value to our clients and our shareholders."
