Hyperion Solutions (Nasdaq Global Select: HYSL), the global leader in Business Performance Management (BPM) software, today announced results for its fiscal second quarter ended December 31, 2006, which include records for Q2 license and total revenue, net income, earnings per share, and number of new customers. Total revenues for the quarter increased 20% to $222.9 million, compared to $185.5 million for the same period a year ago. Software license revenue increased 14% to $84.9 million, compared to $74.4 million for the same period a year ago, while maintenance and services revenue grew 24% to $138.0 million, compared to $111.0 million in the year-ago period. The company's second quarter net income, as reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), increased 39% to $21.5 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared to net income of $15.5 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2006. Second quarter non-GAAP net income increased 34% year-over-year to a record $29.9 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, excluding the impact of charges, net of related tax, for the deferred maintenance revenue adjustments and the amortization of purchased intangible assets; and SFAS 123R equity-based compensation. These results compare to non-GAAP net income of $22.3 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2006. Hyperion�s balance sheet reflects cash and short-term investments totaling $486.4 million at December 31, 2006, compared to $436.2 million at September 30, 2006. Cash flow from operations for the quarter was $47.4 million. The company used cash of $7.5 million to repurchase stock during the quarter, as part of a $100 million stock repurchase program announced in April 2006. Days sales outstanding (DSO) for the quarter improved six days sequentially to 58 days. �We�re pleased to report the best second fiscal quarter in Hyperion�s history,� said Godfrey R. Sullivan, Hyperion�s president and chief executive officer. �License revenue grew 14%, as customers increasingly recognize Hyperion as the management system for the global enterprise. This is our third consecutive quarter of double-digit license revenue growth, fueled by increasing demand for Hyperion System 9. We set new company records for number of transactions with new customers, net income, and earnings per share and are increasingly winning in stand-alone business intelligence transactions.� Business Outlook for Q3 FY07 Hyperion also reported today its outlook for the third quarter of fiscal year 2007. On a GAAP basis, the company currently expects total revenues in the range of $215 million to $220 million and diluted earnings per share in the range of $0.24 to $0.29. This outlook assumes an effective tax rate of 39.4%, and diluted shares outstanding of 59.9 million. Excluding the impact, net of the related tax expense, of the amortization of purchased intangible assets, equity-based compensation expense, and deferred maintenance revenue adjustments, the company expects diluted earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis for the second quarter in the range of $0.40 to $0.45, and a non-GAAP effective tax rate of 37.4%. Business Outlook for FY07 Hyperion also reported its updated outlook for fiscal year 2007. On a GAAP basis, the company currently expects total revenues in the range of $885 million to $895 million and diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.20 to $1.25. This outlook assumes an effective tax rate for Q3 and Q4 of 39.4% and diluted shares outstanding of 59.8 million. Excluding the impact, net of the related tax expense, of the amortization of purchased intangible assets, equity-based compensation expense, and deferred maintenance revenue adjustments, the company expects diluted earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis for the fiscal year in the range of $1.80 to $1.85, and a non-GAAP effective tax rate for Q3 and Q4 of 37.4%.

Non-GAAP Financial Information The non-GAAP information included in this press release is not prepared in accordance with GAAP because it excludes equity-based compensation, amortization of purchased intangible assets, restructuring charges (credits), and deferred maintenance revenue adjustments. Management believes the presentation of this non-GAAP information may be useful to investors because the Company has historically provided this or similar information and understands that some investors find it helpful in analyzing the Company�s revenues and expenses and comparing them to the revenues and expenses of the Company�s competitors or others. Management uses this non-GAAP information, along with GAAP information, in evaluating the Company�s historical and projected revenues and expenses, primarily with a view to assessing ongoing revenues and expenses associated with specific, non-recurring transactions, as is the case with our deferred maintenance revenue adjustment, purchased intangible assets, and restructuring charges (credits). Management uses the non-GAAP information relating to our equity-based compensation, along with GAAP information, to compare this specific non-cash expense with similar expenses of the Company�s competitors or others. Management does so, in part, because of the divergence of opinion as to the best accounting method of equity compensation, notwithstanding the adoption of FAS 123R. The non-GAAP information is not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies. Non-GAAP information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP information. In this regard, while the specific transactions causing the non-GAAP expenses are non-recurring, the Company in the future may effect other transactions, such as acquisitions or restructurings that will trigger similar expenses. Moreover, the Company expects in the future to incur additional equity-based compensation with the granting of additional equity compensation pursuant to FAS 123R and otherwise. For these reasons, our non-GAAP information may not be as useful to investors as the GAAP information also provided.
