Magic Software Announces Second Quarter Results

Company Reports Growth in Profits and a Significant Increase in License Sales

OR YEHUDA, ISRAEL (August 11, 2003) -- Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. (Nasdaq: MGIC), a leading provider of state-of-the-art integration and development technology, today reported its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2003.

Second Quarter Results

Net profit for the second quarter of 2003 was $752,000 (or $0.03 per share) compared with a net loss of $371,000 (or ($0.01) per share) recorded in the second quarter of 2002 and a net profit of $272,000 (or $0.01 per share) in the first quarter of 2003. This represents the highest quarterly net profit in the last eleven quarters.

Total revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2003 were $15.30 million, an increase from $15.13 million posted in the previous quarter and a decrease from $15.67 million in the comparable quarter of 2002.

Software license revenues have reached $4.53 million in the reported quarter, a 9% increase from sales of $4.14 million in the second quarter of 2002 and an 11% increase from $4.08 million at the first quarter of 2003. This represents the highest quarterly license revenues in the last seven quarters.

Application sales were $1.66 million for the reported quarter, compared with $1.66 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $1.87 million in the second quarter of 2002. Revenues from consulting and other services at $6.44 million, decreased from $6.80 million in the first quarter of 2003 and $6.98 million for the second quarter of 2002. Maintenance and support revenues reached $2.67 million in the second quarter of 2003, compared with $2.58 million in the first quarter of 2003, and $2.67 million in the same period of 2002.

In the second quarter of 2003, Europe accounted for 40% of total revenues, while North America and Asia/Pacific accounted for 32% and 28% of total revenues, respectively.

“We are pleased with the results that we have achieved in the second quarter, especially the increase in net profits,” said Menachem Hasfari, chief executive officer of Magic Software Enterprises. “Despite challenging IT environments everywhere, our momentum from the first quarter of the year continues and we've once again delivered strong results.

Our newly released version 9.4 of eDeveloper has received an excellent response from our customer base and from the market in general and Magic's license sales have reached the highest quarterly revenue level in the last seven quarters.”

“We are also pleased with the warm reception our new iBOLT Integration Suite has received both from leading industry analysts as well as existing and potential customers,” Hasfari continued. “In the short time since we have released the iBOLT product family, we have closed our first deals both with end users and a growing list of partners. We have been invited to submit numerous RFPs (Requests for Proposals) and have a solid pipeline of prospects. Nobody can predict what's in store for the IT industry, but we are more confident than ever in our strategic move into the area of Business Integration and Process Management.”
