Update on Company Guidance

The company estimates that new order intake for its clinical solutions during the three months ended May 31, 2009, was approximately $103 million ($27 million of which, or 26%, will be delivered as Software as a Service), which compares to $82 million during the same three-month period a year ago ($8 million of which, or 10%, represents Software as a Service), representing 26% growth. The company expects its fourth quarter and full-year revenue and non-GAAP adjusted earnings to be slightly above the previously communicated guidance in light of the company’s better than expected sales performance in the quarter.
