Exhibit 99.1 ANSYS, Inc. 2003 Results Set New Record Levels for Revenue and Earnings SOUTHPOINTE, Pa., Feb. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ANSYS, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANSS), a global innovator of simulation software and technologies designed to optimize product development processes, today announced record fourth quarter and annual 2003 results. ANSYS' fourth quarter and year-to- date GAAP results include: - Total revenue of $33.3 million, as compared to $25.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2002; total revenue of $113.5 million in 2003 as compared to $91.0 million in 2002; - Diluted earnings per share of $0.45 as compared to $0.41 in the fourth quarter of 2002; diluted earnings per share of $1.34 in 2003 as compared to $1.22 in 2002; and - Cash flows from operations of $10.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2003 and $38.8 million for the year 2003. Excluding the adverse impact on reported software license revenue of purchase accounting adjustments related to the Company's February 2003 acquisition of CFX and acquisition-related amortization (see discussion below), ANSYS' fourth quarter and year-to-date adjusted (non-GAAP) results include: - Total adjusted revenue of $33.8 million, as compared to $25.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2002; total adjusted revenue of $116.5 million in 2003 as compared to $91.0 million in 2002; - An overall adjusted operating profit margin, excluding total amortization, of 35% as compared to 39% for the fourth quarter of 2002; and an overall adjusted operating profit margin, excluding total amortization, of 32% in 2003 as compared to 32% in 2002; and - Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.50 as compared to $0.43 for the fourth quarter of 2002; adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.60 in 2003 as compared to $1.29 in 2002. ANSYS President and CEO, Jim Cashman, commenting on the Company's 2003 results, said, "There are four significant factors that have given us the opportunity to achieve increasingly high levels of business performance. First, we have progressed our vision of providing solutions for total product innovation through simulation-driven design. Second, we have maintained a commitment to technical excellence and R&D investment, which has allowed us to drive this vision in a meaningful timeframe. Next, we have stayed true to our business model and disciplines, even in the more difficult economic times of recent, and finally, we have remained committed to the long-standing relationships that we have with our customers, employees and business partners." Cashman added, "With these factors in mind, we view 2004 as a year that presents an expanding series of opportunities to continue to advance our technology and service strategies to address the ever-increasing needs and business pressures that our customers face. We believe that ANSYS is ideally positioned to articulate and demonstrate a compelling business proposition to both new and existing customers." The adjusted results highlighted above represent non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures. A reconciliation of these measures to the appropriate GAAP measures is included in the condensed financial statements included in this release. Adjustments to Reported GAAP Financial Results - Purchase Accounting Adjustment for Acquired Deferred Revenue: As announced February 26, 2003, ANSYS acquired CFX for approximately $22 million in cash. In accordance with the fair value provisions of EITF 01-3 "Accounting in a Business Combination for Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree," acquired deferred software license revenue of approximately $4.8 million was recorded on the opening balance sheet, which was approximately $3.4 million lower than the historical carrying value. Although this purchase accounting requirement has no impact on the Company's business or cash flow, it adversely impacts the Company's reported GAAP software license revenue for the first twelve months post-acquisition. In order to provide investors with financial information that facilitates comparison of both historical and future results, the Company has and will continue to provide adjusted financial information, which excludes the impact of the purchase accounting adjustment, through this twelve-month period. - Acquisition Related Amortization: As previously discussed, the Company completed its recent acquisition of CFX in February 2003. Prior to that, the Company also acquired CADOE S.A. and ICEM CFD Engineering in November 2001 and August 2000, respectively. These acquisitions have all been accounted for as purchases, resulting in the recording of a significant amount of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. As a result of the amortization associated with intangible assets, ANSYS' quarterly and year-to-date financial results are not comparable with prior periods. To enable investors and other interested parties to compare 2003 financial results to historical and future periods, ANSYS is providing its 2003 fourth quarter and year-to-date reported GAAP results as well as financial results that have been adjusted for the impact of the items described above. Fourth Quarter 2003 and Year Ended December 31, 2003 Reported GAAP Results ANSYS reported net income for the fourth quarter of $7.2 million, or $0.45 diluted earnings per share, based on 16.4 million weighted average shares outstanding. For the quarter ended December 31, 2002, ANSYS reported net income of $6.3 million, or $0.41 diluted earnings per share, based on 15.4 million weighted average shares outstanding. For the year ended December 31, 2003, ANSYS reported net income of $21.3 million, or diluted earnings per share of $1.34, based on 15.9 million weighted average shares outstanding. For the year ended December 31, 2002, ANSYS reported net income of $19.0 million, or diluted earnings per share of $1.22, based on 15.6 million weighted average shares outstanding. Cash and short-term investments at December 31, 2003 totaled $83.0 million and ANSYS remains debt free. ANSYS will hold a conference call at 10:30 A.M.
