Continuing his comments on 2006 performance, Cashman noted, "2006 has been a very productive and successful year for ANSYS as we completed a significant acquisition that has transformed our business and significantly extended the capabilities of our broad-based engineering simulation portfolio. We have also further expanded the diversity of our customer base, our geographic presence and our wealth of employee talent. The foundation that we have been building over the course of many years has generated a solid business model that positions the Company for future success and growth."

Cashman concluded with, "Our business continues to generate a significant level of cash from operations. During 2006, we deployed cash to partially fund the Fluent acquisition, aggressively pay down our debt and to fund capital expenditures that expanded our product offerings and improved our overall productivity. There is strong business and customer momentum as we begin 2007, and we are truly excited about the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead."
