Management Commentary

"We are continuing to see strong indications that PLM has become a strategic imperative. We have accepted orders for a number of broad-based PLM initiatives from customers across a range of industries. There is little doubt in our minds that executives are paying much more attention to 'how products happen' in their companies," said Bryan Stolle, Agile CEO. "At the same time, the overall environment for enterprise software remains difficult. Despite the increased demand, pricing remains tough as buyers that have become accustomed to significant software and consulting discounts try to balance their desire to rapidly drive PLM deployments with low risk partners like Agile against their desire for the deepest discount. We are pleased that in this environment, we were able to double our quarter-over-quarter profits (on a non-GAAP basis), despite continued G&A expenditures that were made in order to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act."

"We are very pleased with our continued operational improvement that has resulted in sequential and year-over-year revenue and margin increases," said Jay Fulcher, Agile president and COO. "We see broader adoption of both our new and existing products by customers across several of the key vertical markets we serve including electronics and high technology, life sciences, consumer packaged goods and industrial products."
