Business Perspective
"This was the seventh consecutive quarter of record setting revenue;
demonstrating that our vision of how SmartBPM® can
revolutionize business execution and provide dramatic cost savings is
shared by our customers. Pegasystems’ unique approach to delivering
successful applications has made us the industry’s leading choice for
customers and partners,” said Alan Trefler, Pegasystems’ Chairman and
CEO.
"In addition to our strong business growth, we saw other successes in
Q1. Our BPM leadership was again confirmed by a leading industry
analyst. The new releases of our SmartBPM® Suite and
Federated Business Frameworks set the bar even higher for business
agility. To further advance our leadership, we continue to significantly
invest in BPM innovation, which creates the customer value and follow-on
sales that drove our 60% growth in license revenue,” concluded Mr.
Trefler.
Craig Dynes, Pegasystems’ CFO, added, "We are off to a great start for
2009 with record revenues and impressive cash flows. Our net income of
$9 million and 34% increase in maintenance revenue compared to Q1, 2008
are both good indicators of our traction despite the weakened economy.
We expect these challenging conditions will continue and so we are
working hard on building pipeline and backlog for the remainder of 2009.”
Messrs. Trefler and Dynes will be hosting a conference call and live
Webcast associated with this announcement at 9:00 a.m. ET on May 6,
2009. Dial-in information is as follows: 877-874-1571 (domestic) or

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this press release may be construed as
"forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
The words "anticipate,” "project,”
"expect,” "plan,” "intend,” "believe,” "estimate,” "target,” "forecast,”
"could” and similar expressions, among others, identify forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made.
These statements are based on current expectations and assumptions and
involve various risks and uncertainties, which could cause the Company's
actual results to differ from those expressed in such forward-looking
statements. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation,
variation in demand and the difficulty in predicting the completion of
product acceptance and other factors affecting the timing of our license
revenue recognition, the level of term license renewals, our ability to
develop new products and evolve existing ones, the impact on our
business of the recent financial crisis in the global capital markets,
the negative global economic trends and the ongoing consolidation in the
financial services and healthcare markets, our ability to attract and
retain key personnel, reliance on key third party relationships and
management of the Company's growth. Further information regarding these
and other factors which could cause the Company's actual results to
differ materially from any forward-looking statements contained in this
press release is contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2008 and other recent filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements
contained in this press release represent the Company's views as of May
4, 2009. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such
forward-looking statements and there are no assurances that the matters
contained in such statements will be achieved. Although subsequent
events may cause the Company's view to change, the Company does not
undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to publicly update
or revise these forward-looking statements whether as the result of new
information, future events or otherwise. The statements should therefore
not be relied upon as representing the Company's view as of any date
subsequent to May 4, 2009.
