BEDFORD, Mass., December 23, 2009 —
Progress Software Corporation (NASDAQ: PRGS), a leading independent enterprise software provider that enables companies to be operationally responsive, today announced results for its fourth quarter ending November 30, 2009. On a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis, revenue for the quarter was $136.8 million, down 2 percent (5 percent at constant currency) from $139.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008. On a non-GAAP basis, revenue totaled $136.9 million, representing a 4 percent decrease (7 percent at constant currency) over the year ago period.

The company's cash and short-term investments at the end of the year totaled $224.1 million.
In September 2009, Progress Software’s Board of Directors extended the company’s stock repurchase program by authorizing Progress Software to repurchase an aggregate of 1 million shares during the period from October 1, 2009 until September 30, 2010. The company repurchased approximately 3,000 shares of its common stock at a cost of $0.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 under this new repurchase authorization.
Richard D. Reidy, president and chief executive officer, Progress Software, said: “We exceeded our guidance for both revenue and earnings in our fiscal fourth quarter as a result of excellent customer wins along with well-managed expense management, despite the difficult economic environment. The Progress Apama and Actional product lines achieved double- and triple-digit growth respectively in the fiscal fourth quarter. Furthermore, we expect our newer product lines to continue on their significant growth path in 2010 achieving a greater than 20 percent increase in revenue; we also anticipate strong earnings overall for the year.”
