"The acquisition of AiPoint that was announced last week joins the two other acquisitions we completed earlier in the year. These acquisitions, together with major new product developments including the release of Version 8, and the productive partnerships we have solidified, mark major milestones in our long term plan to establish a strong growth engine for the future", he added.

The Company will ring the Nasdaq stock market opening bell on Thursday, October 29th, and host an Analyst & Investor Day after the ceremony. For details and registration to the Analyst & Investor Day please visit ClickSoftware's website at: http://www.clicksoftware.com.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Results

In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company's earnings release contains Non-GAAP financial measures of net income and net income per share that exclude the effects of share-based compensation in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 123R, "Share-based Payment" ("123R"), tax benefit related to the update of deferred tax asset and the amortization of acquired intangible assets. The Company's management believes the Non-GAAP financial information provided in this release is useful to investors' understanding and assessment of the Company's on-going core operations and prospects for the future. Management also uses both GAAP and Non-GAAP information in evaluating and operating business internally and as such deemed it important to provide all this information to investors. The Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. Reconciliations between GAAP measures and Non-GAAP measures are provided later in this press release.
