the third quarter ending September 30, 2006 and updating its Business
Outlook for the full year 2006.
Second Quarter Revenues
Revenues were $82,712,000 for the second quarter of 2006, a five
percent increase compared with second quarter 2005 revenues of
$79,100,000.
GAAP Earnings
Reported net income under generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) for the second quarter of 2006 was $6,220,000, or $0.14 per
diluted share, compared to $8,261,000, or $0.18 per diluted share, in
the second quarter of 2005.
Non-GAAP Earnings
Non-GAAP net income for all periods in 2006 and 2005 excludes the
after-tax impact of (i) non-cash amortization of intangibles related
to acquisitions; and (ii) stock-based compensation expense associated
with the expensing of stock options in accordance with FAS 123(R) and
restricted stock expense. Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter
of 2006 was $9,695,000, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to

"I am very pleased with the strong demand patterns for our new
Proventia solutions, which delivered solid growth this quarter.
Additionally, I am proud to note that our Proventia Intrusion
Prevention solutions grew 23 percent annually, while our Proventia
Unified Threat Management solutions revenue grew 55 percent annually,"
said Tom Noonan, president and CEO of Internet Security Systems. "In
addition to again meeting our earnings expectations, we continued to
deliver on our Protection On-Demand strategy with new technology
development and innovation that significantly advances our vision of
providing customers of all markets and sizes with a dramatically
simpler and more effective IT protection solution."
Business Outlook
The following Business Outlook is based on current expectations.
The statements in this Business Outlook are forward-looking, and
actual results may differ materially. These statements do not reflect
the potential impact of any mergers, acquisitions or other business
combinations that may be completed after the date of this press
release.
During the quarter, corporate representatives of ISS may reiterate
the company's published Business Outlook during private meetings with
investors, investment analysts, the media and others. At the same
time, ISS will keep its most current earnings release and any
subsequent press releases containing the then current Business Outlook
publicly available on its Web site at www.iss.net. Prior to the start
of the ISS quiet period for the third quarter of 2006, the public can
continue to rely on the Business Outlook set forth in this press
release as being ISS' current expectations on matters covered, unless
ISS publishes a notice stating otherwise. During the quiet period, ISS
and its corporate representatives will not comment concerning the
previously published Business Outlook and ISS disclaims any obligation
to update the Business Outlook. During the quiet period, the company's
press releases and filings with the SEC on Forms 10-K and 10-Q should
be considered historical, speaking as of prior to the quiet period
only and not subject to update by the company. The ISS quiet period at
the end of the third quarter is expected to run from September 15,
2006 until financial results are released in October 2006.
This Business Outlook assumes that the enterprise spending
environment remains consistent with ISS' experience in the second
quarter 2006. This Business Outlook also assumes that the competitive
landscape will not change significantly during 2006, recognizing that
there will continue to be competitive alternatives to our product
offerings.
For the year ending December 31, 2006, ISS currently expects to
achieve revenues in the range of $355,000,000 to $360,000,000. GAAP
net income is expected to be in the range of $0.67 to $0.72 per
diluted share. Non-GAAP net income is expected to be in the range of
$0.95 to $1.00 per diluted share.
For the quarter ending September 30, 2006, ISS currently expects
to achieve revenues in the range of $90,000,000 to $92,000,000. GAAP
net income is expected to be in the range of $0.16 to $0.18 per
diluted share. Non-GAAP net income is expected to be in the range of
$0.23 to $0.25 per diluted share.
Non-GAAP net income excludes: (i) non-cash amortization of
intangibles related to acquisitions (net of taxes), estimated to be
$500,000 for the quarter ending September 30, 2006 and $3,000,000 for
the year ending December 31, 2006; and (ii) compensation expense (net
of taxes) associated with the expensing of stock options in accordance
with FAS 123(R) and restricted stock expenses, estimated to be
approximately $2,500,000 or $0.06 per diluted share for the quarter
ending September 30, 2006 and approximately $9,500,000 or $0.21 per
diluted share for the year ending December 31, 2006.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release, other than historical information, includes
forward-looking statements made pursuant to the "safe harbor"
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Some of these forward-looking statements appear in our Business
Outlook - specifically, our revenue and GAAP and non-GAAP net income
estimates for the third quarter and full year 2006. The risks and
uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially
from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not
limited to, the following: the level of demand for ISS products;
customer budgets; the volume and timing of orders and deliveries; the
mix of products sold and whether revenue is recognized upon sale or
deferred to subsequent periods; product and price competition; risks
concerning the rapid change of technology; ISS' ability to develop new
and enhanced products; disruption from introducing new products;
acceptance of new and enhanced products by customers; new regulations
requiring changes to products and the availability of compliant
products in a timely manner; reliance on contract manufacturers to
produce ISS appliance products; availability of component parts of
appliance products; ISS' ability to accurately forecast and produce
demanded quantities of its appliance products and models; reliance on
distribution channels through which ISS products are sold; ISS'
ability to integrate acquisitions or investments; ISS' ability to
attract and retain key personnel; changes in accounting policies,
standards, guidelines or principles that may be adopted by regulatory
agencies or the Financial Accounting Standards Board (including
without limitation the impact of expensing stock options); the
assertion of infringement claims with respect to ISS intellectual
property; foreign currency exchange rates; and general economic
factors. These risks and others are discussed in ISS' periodic filings
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the ISS 2005
Annual Report on Form 10-K. These filings can be obtained either by
contacting ISS Investor Relations or through the ISS Web site at
www.iss.net or the Securities and Exchange Commission's Web site at

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying supplementary financial
information presents operating income, income before income taxes, net
income, operating margin and net income per dilutive share measures
that exclude the effect of non-cash acquisition related expenses and
stock-based compensation expense relating to FAS 123(R). ISS
management and industry analysts often evaluate ISS' operating
performance using these measures. These non-GAAP financial measures
are also used by management to conduct business operations such as:
developing budgets, managing expenditures, evaluating internal
performance and calculating incentive compensation. In addition, ISS
believes these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management's
internal comparisons to its competitors' operating results, and the
software industry in general. ISS believes that its presentation of
these non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors as a
measure of operating performance basic to its ongoing operations,
which is more comparable from period to period without the charges
related to occasional acquisition activity and non-cash stock-based
compensation expense. Additionally, ISS believes these non-GAAP
measures provide useful information to investors so they can evaluate
ISS' operating results in the same manner as management and industry
analysts, if they so choose.
This non-GAAP financial information, provided as additional
information for investors, is not in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and may be different from similarly
named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP
financial measures should not be used as a substitute for, or
considered superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
