CHICAGO (February 13, 2007) –

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20061005/ALLSCRIPTSLOGO-b )
Total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $63.6 million, compared to $34.2 million for the same period last year. Total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2006 includes the results of A4 Health Systems, Inc., which Allscripts acquired on March 2, 2006. Revenue from software and related services for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $48.9 million, compared to $18.2 million for the same period last year, increasing by 168%.
Gross margin percentage was 53.5% for the fourth quarter of 2006, compared to 45.5% during the fourth quarter of 2005.
Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $4.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.4 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Reported net income for 2006 reflects stock-based compensation pursuant to Allscripts adoption of new accounting rules effective as of January 1, 2006 and reflects tax provisioning and acquisition related amortization not included in prior periods. In order to facilitate further comparison of results against periods prior to January 1, 2006, Allscripts began reporting non-GAAP adjusted earnings in 2006. Adjusted earnings are comprised of net income giving effect to the add-back of income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and one-time A4 Health Systems integration costs. Such adjusted earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2006 were $12.5 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to adjusted earnings of $5.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a discussion of non-GAAP adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share.
As of December 31, 2006, the Company had cash and marketable securities of $83.0 million.
“By virtually every measure, 2006 was a record year for Allscripts. We extended our leadership across all segments of the market and proved that, together with our clients, we can transform our healthcare system into an interoperable, connected electronic network that lets physicians spend their time with patients, not paperwork,” said Glen Tullman, Chief Executive Officer of Allscripts. “As we move into 2007, healthcare’s challenges remain front- page news and every trend supports the adoption of software and technology as the solution. We’re just getting started in terms of market penetration, and there’s lots of runway ahead.”
Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $228.0 million, compared to $120.6 million for 2005. Revenue from software and related services for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $173.5 million, compared to $65.2 million for 2005, increasing by 166%. Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2006 includes the results of A4 Health Systems from the acquisition date of March 2, 2006 through the end of the fourth quarter of 2006.
Total gross margin percentage was 50.9% for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to 45.5% for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $11.9 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to net income of $9.7 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for 2005. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $39.2 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, compared to adjusted earnings of $16.8 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the same period last year.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Allscripts reports its financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Allscripts management also evaluates and makes operating decisions using various other measures. These measures are generally based on revenues generated by Allscripts products and services and certain costs of producing that revenue, such as costs of selling, general and administrative expenses. One such measure is non-GAAP adjusted earnings, which is a non-GAAP financial measure under Section 101 of Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings consists of GAAP income (loss) before taxes, excluding as applicable, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense under SFAS No. 123R, realized losses on marketable securities and integration costs associated with the March 2, 2006 acquisition of A4 Health Systems.
Management believes that it is useful in measuring Allscripts operations to exclude, as applicable, depreciation and amortization, realized losses on marketable securities and A4 Health Systems integration costs because these costs are essentially fixed and cannot be influenced by management in the short or medium term. In addition, management believes that excluding share- based compensation expense under SFAS No. 123R is appropriate because this is not a cash expense, but instead is a significant accounting charge that the Company was not required to record for its share-based compensation awards prior to 2006. Accordingly, management believes that excluding these items from non-GAAP adjusted earnings will provide information that is more generally comparable to prior periods and that reflects the Company’s core operating results.
Management believes that non-GAAP adjusted earnings provides useful supplemental information to management and investors regarding the performance of the Company’s business operations and facilitates comparisons to our historical operating results. Management also uses this information internally for forecasting and budgeting as it believes that the measure is indicative of the Company’s core operating results. Note however, that non- GAAP adjusted earnings is a performance measure only, and it does not provide any measure of the Company’s cash flow or liquidity. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP, and investors and potential investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures contained within the attached condensed consolidated financial statements.
