SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- New Cash Flow Performance Management Suite 6.0 Provides Single Business Performance Management Platform

Emagia Corporation, the leading provider of Enterprise Cash Flow Management Solutions, announced today the industry's first financial performance solution to provide CFOs with a comprehensive solution to bridge business performance management to cash flow processes. Now for the first time, CFOs of Global 2000 corporations can gain powerful real-time visibility into cash flows from operations, improve accuracy of cash flow forecasting and implement corporate strategy in daily execution of credit, receivables, payables and treasury functions.

Cash Flow Performance Management for Today's Business Needs

According to the latest figures from the International Monetary Fund, growth rates for U.S. corporations in 2006 will be marginal and result in substantially lower profits. On top of every finance executive's agenda is the unrelenting pressure to improve shareholder value in the face of these dynamics by reducing costs, improving finance operations and generating higher levels of Free Cash Flow.

Emagia Cash Flow Performance Management Suite 6.0 offers powerful business intelligence dash boards and scorecards, sophisticated cash flow planning and forecasting, and strategy-driven process automation functions around order-to-cash and procure-to-pay, altogether integrated on a single business performance management platform. The solution is designed to drive excellence in working capital management and operations management on financial supply chain processes.

A powerful new application introduced as part of the Cash Flow Performance Management Suite is the Emagia Cash Flow Forecasting application. This innovative solution offers finance and treasury departments the ability to achieve the following:

--Global consolidation of receivables and payables

--Real-time rolling window forecasting with variable time periods

--Interfaces for divisional level receivables and payables departments

--Flexible cash flow modeling and simulations

--Predictive analytics, what-if scenarios and variance analysis around cash flow

--Performance management with score carding and dash board capabilities

--HTML based and Microsoft Excel-based user interface

--Improve SOX Section 404 compliance on cash flow processes.

"Cash flow from operations is an often untapped resource that can be a key competitive advantage in many industries," said Jack Pacheco, CFO at Smart Modular Technologies, a leading electronic components manufacturer. "Emagia Cash Flow Performance Management solution will allow us to gain comprehensive view of operational efficiencies along with accurate daily, weekly and monthly cash flow forecasts at corporate and divisional levels. Emagia solution is an integral part of our finance operations."
