NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are consistent in all material respects with those applied in PeopleSoft Inc’s. (“PeopleSoft” or the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are unaudited and in the opinion of management, include all necessary normal recurring and other adjustments for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Despite the Company’s best effort to make these good faith estimates and assumptions, actual results may differ. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

     These interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations, which allow certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements, to be condensed or omitted. As a result, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements filed with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

2. Income Per Share

     Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding unvested restricted stock. Diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the number of potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period, if dilutive. Potential dilutive common shares consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, restricted stock not yet vested, and shares issuable resulting from compensation withheld to purchase stock under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”), using the treasury stock method.

     The following table sets forth the computation of basic income per share and diluted income per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

     The following table sets forth the potential dilutive common shares that were excluded from the diluted income per share computations because the exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares during the period or were otherwise not dilutive (in millions):

6

     The weighted average exercise prices of the employee stock options that are antidilutive for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 were $27.98 and $25.78 per share, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 were $28.44 and $27.72 per share, respectively.

     On January 12, 2004, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $200 million of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, in the open market or through privately negotiated purchases or otherwise, depending on market prices and other conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2004, no common stock was repurchased under this program.

3. Stock-Based Compensation

     Our stock-based compensation consists of stock options and restricted stock awards. The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB Opinion No. 25”). The following table illustrates the effect on net income and income per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”), to stock-based employee compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 (in thousands, except per share amounts). The 2003 pro forma disclosure has been revised to correct the pro forma foreign tax benefits associated with stock options.

     The fair value of the Company’s stock option awards to employees and the shares purchased under the ESPP were estimated as of the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Limitations on the effectiveness of the Black-Scholes option valuation model are that it was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable and that the model requires the use of highly subjective assumptions including expected stock price volatility. The fair value of the Company’s stock option awards to employees and the shares purchased under the ESPP plan were estimated assuming no expected dividends and the following weighted-average assumptions:

4. Comprehensive Income

     Comprehensive income primarily includes net income, unrealized gains or losses on investments, mark-to-market adjustments on interest rate swap transactions, and foreign currency translation adjustments, which are reflected as a component of stockholders’ equity. The components of comprehensive income, net of tax, are as follows (in thousands):

5. Derivative Financial Instruments

     Derivative financial instruments are only utilized by the Company to reduce foreign currency exchange and interest rate risks. The Company does not hold any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts

     The Company has a foreign exchange hedging program principally designed to mitigate the potential impact due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Forward exchange contracts are primarily used to hedge foreign currency exposures and generally have terms of two months or less. The derivatives used in the foreign exchange hedging program are not designated as cash flow or fair value hedges under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 133”), as amended. These contracts are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value in “Accrued liabilities.” Changes in fair value of the contracts and the amounts being hedged are included in “Other income, net.” At June 30, 2004, each of the foreign exchange contracts matured within 60 days and had a book value that approximated fair value. Neither the cost nor the fair value of these forward foreign exchange contracts was material at June 30, 2004.

     During the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company recorded net foreign currency transaction losses of $2.5 million and $1 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company recorded net foreign currency transaction losses of $4.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

     At June 30, 2004, the Company had the following outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts to exchange foreign currency for U.S. dollars (in millions):

     At June 30, 2004, the Company had the following outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts to exchange U.S. dollars for foreign currency (in millions):

     At June 30, 2003, the Company had the following outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts to exchange foreign currency for U.S. dollars (in millions):

     At June 30, 2003, the Company had the following outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts to exchange U.S. dollars for foreign currency (in millions):

Interest Rate Swap Transactions

     The Company used interest rate swap transactions to manage its exposure to interest rate changes on synthetic lease obligations related to certain of its headquarters facilities located in Pleasanton, California. The swaps had an aggregate notional principal amount of $175 million and matured at various dates in 2003, consistent with the expiration of the synthetic leases. Under the swap agreements, the Company received a variable interest rate based on the three month LIBOR rate and paid a weighted average fixed interest rate of 6.8%. The swaps were designated under SFAS 133 as hedges against changes in the amount of future cash flows. In February 2003, the Company exercised its option under a synthetic lease agreement to purchase certain of its headquarters facilities

9

located in Pleasanton, California for $70 million, and concurrently, swaps with an aggregate notional principal amount of $70 million matured. In June 2003, the Company exercised its option under a synthetic lease agreement to purchase certain of its headquarters facilities located in Pleasanton, California for $105 million. As a result of this transaction, the Company terminated its remaining interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional principal amount of $105 million resulting in pretax charge of $1.4 million to “Other income, net.” Included in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” at March 31, 2003 was a $1.8 million unrealized loss (after-tax) related to these interest rate swaps. In the second quarter of 2003, $0.9 million (after-tax) was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings by making scheduled swap payments and $0.9 million (after-tax) was recognized as a realized loss that was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings upon the termination of the remaining interest rate swap agreements.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

     The Company does not have a significant concentration of credit or operating risk in any one investment, customer, industry or geographic region within or outside of the United States.

6. Restructuring Liabilities

Third Quarter 2003 Restructuring Plan

     During the third quarter of 2003, in connection with the acquisition of J.D. Edwards & Company (J.D. Edwards), management approved and initiated plans to restructure the pre-acquisition operations of PeopleSoft to eliminate certain duplicative activities and reduce the Company’s cost structure. Consequently, from the date of the J.D. Edwards acquisition through June 30, 2004, the Company has recorded approximately $31.7 million of restructuring charges including costs for employee severance, acquisition-related employee retention, consolidating duplicate facilities and contract terminations. Approximately 200 pre-acquisition PeopleSoft employees were terminated under this restructuring plan. Terminated employees entitled to receive payments under this plan primarily consisted of general and administrative, consulting, and sales and marketing employees. These costs are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS 146”) or Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112 (“SFAS 112”), “Employers’ Accounting for Postemployment Benefits — an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 5 and 43” and are recorded as a charge to the results of operations in “Restructuring, acquisition and other charges.” Future cash payments related to restructuring liabilities for employee costs are expected to be made through October 2004. Future cash payments related to restructuring liabilities for facilities obligations are expected to be made through March 2012. The $10.8 million restructuring liability at June 30, 2004 related to exiting certain pre-acquisition activities of the Company is a cash obligation.

     The following table sets forth the activity in the Company’s restructuring liabilities accounted for under SFAS 146 or SFAS 112 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, for liabilities established during 2003, as a result of the acquisition of J.D. Edwards which pertain to the pre-acquisition operations of PeopleSoft. These liabilities are included in “Restructuring liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands).

     From the July 18, 2003 acquisition date of J.D. Edwards through June 30, 2004, the Company recorded approximately $97.5 million of restructuring costs in connection with exiting certain pre-acquisition activities of J.D. Edwards including employee severance costs, change in control payments, costs of consolidating duplicate facilities, contract termination costs and other costs. These costs have been accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-3, “Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination” (“EITF 95-3”) and have been recognized as a liability assumed in the purchase business combination. Approximately 600 pre-acquisition J.D. Edwards employees were terminated under this restructuring plan. Terminated employees entitled to receive severance and change in control payments under this plan primarily consisted of general and administrative, consulting, and sales and marketing employees. Change in control payments are made to employees covered by a plan

10

established by J.D. Edwards and subsequently assumed by PeopleSoft upon the completion of the merger. The change in control plan provides for specified severance and other change in control-related benefits to participants in the plan. The change in control plan covered 197 senior management employees. Future cash payments related to restructuring liabilities for employee costs are expected to be made through January 2005. Future cash payments related to restructuring liabilities for facilities obligations, contract terminations and other costs are expected to be made through January 2008. The $35.2 million restructuring liability at June 30, 2004 related to exiting certain pre-acquisition activities of J.D. Edwards is a cash obligation.

     The following table sets forth the activity in the Company’s restructuring liabilities accounted for in accordance with EITF 95-3, for the six months ended June 30, 2004, for liabilities established during 2003, as a result of the acquisition of J.D. Edwards which pertain to the pre-acquisition activities of J.D. Edwards. These liabilities are included in “Restructuring liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands).

Other Restructuring Plans

     The following table sets forth the activity in the Company’s restructuring liabilities established prior to 2003 and accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)” for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Future cash payments related to these restructuring liabilities are expected to be made through October 2005. These liabilities are included in “Restructuring liabilities” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands).

7. Products and Service Warranty Reserve

     The Company provides for the estimated cost of product and service warranties based on specific warranty claims received, provided that it is probable that a liability exists, and provided the cost to repair or otherwise satisfy the claim can be reasonably estimated. The amount of the reserve recorded is equal to the costs to repair or otherwise satisfy the claim. If existing claims are settled for amounts which differ from the Company’s estimates, or if the estimated monetary value of the warranty claims were to increase or decrease, revisions to the estimated warranty liability may be required and the warranty expense could change from current levels.

     The following table sets forth the activity in the Company’s product and service warranty reserve, which is included in “Accrued liabilities,” for the six months ended June 30, 2004 (in thousands):

8. Business Combinations

     Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger with J.D. Edwards dated June 16, 2003, the Company acquired approximately 85% of the outstanding stock of J.D. Edwards on July 18, 2003 pursuant to an exchange offer and the remaining shares on August 29, 2003.

     J.D. Edwards offered enterprise software as well as consulting, education and support services. The Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) approved the offer and the merger and believed that the offer and the merger would provide the Company with increased breadth and depth across the Company’s products, market segments and industry coverage. The Company’s Board believed that J.D. Edwards’ expertise in manufacturing and distribution applications would strengthen the Company’s enterprise application suite. In addition, the Board believed that J.D. Edward’s mid-market focused applications and AS/400 based solutions would be additive to the Company’s Internet-based enterprise application suite.

     In the exchange offer, holders of J.D. Edwards common stock were entitled to make an election to tender their shares for cash or shares of PeopleSoft stock. Such holders were entitled to receive cash, stock, or a combination of cash and stock, in each case having a value, on a per share basis of $7.05 plus 0.43 of a share of the Company’s common stock, allocated by prorating cash and shares available in the exchange offer among the elections made by the holders. At the completion of the acquisition, a total of 124,108,566 shares of J.D. Edwards common stock were tendered and accepted for exchange by PeopleSoft.

     The Company exchanged options to purchase J.D. Edwards common stock held by J.D. Edwards employees with options to purchase PeopleSoft common stock at a rate of 0.43 of a PeopleSoft share per J.D. Edwards share. Each exchanged PeopleSoft option retained the same vesting characteristics as the J.D. Edwards option it replaced and each J.D. Edwards option holder will receive $7.05 per share upon exercise in addition to the PeopleSoft shares.

     The aggregate purchase price was approximately $2 billion, which consisted of approximately $875 million in cash, $959.6 million in PeopleSoft common stock and stock options (net of deferred compensation), $97.5 million in restructuring costs (Note 6, “Restructuring Liabilities”) and $22.7 million in deal costs and other liabilities, which primarily consist of fees paid for legal, accounting and financial advisory services. A total of 53,366,059 shares of PeopleSoft common stock were issued in the transaction. The value of the stock issued to tendering J.D. Edwards shareholders was based upon the average of the closing prices of one share of the Company’s common stock for a few days before and after the amended terms of the merger were agreed to and announced, which was $17.22. The fair value of the Company’s stock-based awards to employees was estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

     The intrinsic value allocated to the unvested J.D. Edwards options assumed in the exchange was approximately $6.8 million at the date of the merger and was recorded as deferred compensation in the purchase price allocation. Option holders having options with strike prices of $7.05 (J.D. Edwards pre-merger price) or less were given 0.43 shares of the Company’s common stock plus $7.05 less the exercise price and any applicable taxes, in order to retire these options.

     In allocating the purchase price based on estimated fair values, the Company recorded approximately $948 million of goodwill, $477 million of amortizable purchased intangible assets, $491 million of net tangible assets, $226 million of capitalized software, $127 million of deferred tax liabilities, $75 million of deferred revenue and $15 million of in-process research and development. The purchase price allocation is preliminary and a final determination of required purchase accounting adjustments will be made upon the completion of a final analysis of the total purchase cost pending finalization of restructuring costs related to estimated involuntary termination of employees and facility related costs.

10. Customer Assurance Program

     On June 6, 2003, Oracle Corporation (“Oracle”) announced that it intended to commence an unsolicited cash tender offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares of PeopleSoft for $16.00 per share, or approximately $5.1 billion in the aggregate (the “Oracle Tender Offer”). The Oracle Tender Offer formally commenced June 9, 2003. On June 18, 2003 Oracle amended the offer to increase the purchase price from $16.00 to $19.50 per share or approximately $6.2 billion in the aggregate. On February 4, 2004, Oracle increased its offer price to $26 per share, or approximately $9.5 billion in the aggregate. On May 14, 2004, Oracle reduced the offer price to $21 per share, or approximately $7.7 billion in the aggregate. Oracle has extended its tender offer period several times, and on July 12, 2004 announced extension of its tender offer period to August 27, 2004.

     In response to Oracle’s public statements about its intent to discontinue PeopleSoft’s products, and to minimize the loss of business while the Oracle Tender Offer remains pending, PeopleSoft implemented a customer assurance program. This program incorporates in its standard perpetual licensing arrangement a term that provides customers who purchase application licenses with financial protection in the circumstances described below. That financial protection is in the form of a payment generally equal to two to five times the total arrangement fees, with the multiple increasing as the fees increase. The specific criteria which have to be met before a payment is due under the customer assurance program vary in some respects among each of five versions of the language used in 2003 and through June 30, 2004. The customer assurance program has most recently been extended until the earlier of the date that Oracle terminates its tender offer or September 30, 2004. A payment will be generally due under the customer assurance program if each of the following events occurs:

•		either within one year or two years (depending upon the applicable version of the program) from the contract effective date, there is an acquisition of PeopleSoft, as specifically described in the version; and
•		either within two or four years (depending upon the applicable version of the program) from the contract effective date, the acquiring company takes certain action to discontinue or reduce support, licensing, updates or new releases for PeopleSoft’s products, as specifically described in each version of the program; and
•		the customer requests the payment in writing by a specified date and the customer has timely paid for support services in accordance with the terms of the customer’s agreement with PeopleSoft.

     In Version Five of the program the term “acquisition” is limited to an acquisition of PeopleSoft by Oracle or its affiliates. This change is consistent with the terms of a pending settlement of certain stockholder litigation. See Note 11, “Commitments and Contingencies.”

     Customers retain rights to the licensed products whether or not the customer assurance program’s payments are triggered. No customer is entitled to a refund of fees previously paid under the customer’s contract with PeopleSoft, but the customer would be entitled to a payment under the customer assurance program if all of the conditions stated above are met.

     The customer assurance program has no current financial statement impact on PeopleSoft. A contingent liability may be recognized in the financial statements of PeopleSoft or its acquirer upon or after the consummation of a transaction that satisfies the acquisition criteria set forth in the specific terms of the applicable version of the customer assurance program, and if the amount due were probable and reasonably estimable. However, the determination of the timing of recognition and amount of any such contingent liability would be dependent upon the acquirer’s plans, assumptions and estimations. The terms of the customer assurance program require an acquisition by an entity other than PeopleSoft; therefore no action taken unilaterally by PeopleSoft would, by itself, result in the recognition of a contingent liability or any other financial statement impact. As discussed above, in Version Five of the program, the term “acquisition” is limited to an acquisition of PeopleSoft by Oracle or its affiliates.

14

     The table below sets forth for each version of the customer assurance program the dates during which such version was implemented in customer contracts and the approximate potential maximum liability, as of June 30, 2004, under the contracts containing language from each such version. As of June 30, 2004, the approximate aggregate maximum potential amount of future liability under the customer assurance program was $2.02 billion.

* Some contracts originally submitted to customers prior to these end dates were executed following such dates.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Synthetic Leases

     As a result of the acquisition of J.D. Edwards, the Company assumed three six-year master operating leases on four office buildings in Denver, Colorado (the “Denver Campus”). Two of the three master leases are effective at June 30, 2004. On April 2, 2004, the third master lease agreement terminated and the Company exercised its option to purchase two buildings for a net purchase price of $58.6 million. The lessor, a wholly owned subsidiary of a bank, which together with a syndication of other banks provided debt and equity financing of $121.2 million for the purchase and construction costs of the buildings. The lease payment obligations are based on a return on the lessor’s costs. The Company has an option to refinance or purchase the remaining leased properties at its sole discretion during the terms of the leases for approximately $62.6 million. In the event that the Company does not exercise its option to refinance or purchase the leased properties, it must guarantee the residual value of each building up to approximately 85% of the bank financing of $62.6 million or $53.2 million for the remaining two leases. The Company has evaluated the fair value of the Denver Campus and determined that at June 30, 2004 it is not probable that the value of the leased properties at the end of the lease terms will be less than the residual value guaranteed by the Company and as a result the Company does not believe that it will be called upon to perform under the residual guarantee. The Company is expecting to proceed with cash purchases of the remaining office buildings. The leases for the remaining buildings terminate during the third and fourth quarters of 2004.

     The Company may elect to reduce the interest rate used to calculate its lease expense by collateralizing the Denver Campus financing arrangements with investments. At June 30, 2004, investments totaling $63.8 million were designated as collateral for these leases. The Company may withdraw the funds used as collateral, excluding restricted amounts, at its sole discretion provided that it is not in default under the lease agreements. At June 30, 2004, funds used as collateral in the amount of $40.8 million were available for withdrawal. At June 30, 2004, the Company was in compliance with the covenants, representations, and warranties required under the lease agreements.

Customer Indemnification

     From time to time, the Company agrees to indemnify its customers against liability if the Company’s products infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights. In addition, the Company, on rare occasions, offers to its customers indemnity for personal injury and property damage that may result from the actions of the Company’s employees. As of June 30, 2004, the Company had no material claims or pending material litigation alleging that the Company’s products infringe the intellectual property rights of any third parties or asserting that the Company has any payment obligation on these customer indemnification provisions.

PeopleSoft Stockholder Actions — Delaware Court of Chancery

     On June 6, 2003, Felix Ezeir (Case No. 20349-NC), Teresita Fay (Case No. 20350-NC), Robert Crescente (Case No. 20351-NC),

15

Robert Corwin (Case No. 20352-NC) and Ernest Hack (Case No. 20353-NC), all of whom represented themselves to be PeopleSoft stockholders, each filed a putative stockholder class action suit in the Delaware Court of Chancery against the Company and several of the Company’s officers and directors. The suits allege that defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the response to the tender offer announced by Oracle Corporation on June 6, 2003 and formally commenced June 9, 2003. Plaintiffs in each of the actions initially sought injunctive relief and an accounting. On June 10, 2003, Steven Padness filed an action in the Delaware Court of Chancery against these same defendants (Case No. 20358-NC) making similar allegations and seeking similar relief. On June 12, 2003, Thomas Nemes filed an action in the Delaware Court of Chancery (which was subsequently amended June 18, 2003) against these same defendants (Case No. 20365-NC), making similar allegations and seeking similar relief (the “Nemes Action”).

     On June 25, 2003, on an application filed in the Nemes Action, the Court consolidated the actions listed above under a single caption and case number: In re PeopleSoft, Inc. Shareholder Litigation, Consol. C.A. No. 20365-NC.

     On July 2, 2003, Richard Hutchings (Case No. 20403-NC) filed a putative stockholder class action in the Delaware Court of Chancery against PeopleSoft and several of the Company’s officers and directors. This action alleges that defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the response to Oracle’s tender offer. Plaintiff sought injunctive relief, an accounting and damages. On July 22, 2003, the Delaware Court ordered that this action be consolidated with the other putative Delaware shareholder actions mentioned above.

     On May 26, 2004, PeopleSoft announced that the parties to the Delaware consolidated putative stockholder class action had entered into a memorandum of understanding providing for the settlement of that action. On June 17, 2004, the parties in the Delaware consolidated putative stockholder class action signed a Stipulation and Agreement of Compromise, Settlement and Release providing for settlement of that action (the “Settlement Stipulation”) and on July 22, 2004 filed the Settlement Stipulation with the Delaware Court of Chancery.

     In the Settlement Stipulation the stockholder plaintiffs state that, based on the actions of the US Department of Justice and the European Union and the current status of their anti-trust reviews and/or opposition to Oracle’s proposed acquisition of the Company, the discovery to date, and subject to confirmatory discovery, they had determined that the customer assurance program (see Note 10, above), as it relates to Oracle, serves a legitimate corporate purpose in light of Oracle’s tender offer and other conduct. Pursuant to the Settlement Stipulation, the Company agreed that if it extended the customer assurance program beyond June 30, 2004, the term “acquisition” would be limited to an acquisition of the Company by Oracle or its affiliates, and that prior to June 30, 2004 it would attempt to use that more limited definition in certain new contracts. In the Settlement Stipulation, which is subject to approval by the Delaware Court of Chancery, the stockholder plaintiffs, on behalf of a class of PeopleSoft stockholders, agreed to settle and dismiss all claims that were raised or could have been raised in the action against the Company and its directors. The Settlement Stipulation also provides, among other things, that following Delaware Court of Chancery approval of the settlement (if obtained), the Company will, for a two year period, amend its Bylaws to shorten the advance notice a stockholder must give to nominate candidates for director and amend its stockholder rights plan to provide that the rights plan will generally cease to be applicable to certain qualifying tender offers unless, within 90 days following commencement or amendment of the price term of the qualifying tender offer or certain other events, the Board of Directors, including a majority of its independent directors, shall have adopted a resolution determining that the rights plan shall remain applicable to such offer. The Settlement Stipulation also provides for the Company to pay attorneys’ fees and expenses of the stockholder plaintiffs in an amount to be determined by the Court as fair and reasonable. If approved, the settlement will bind all PeopleSoft stockholders except that it will not apply to Oracle, which is not precluded by the Settlement Stipulation from continuing to pursue its claims in the Delaware Court of Chancery and its counterclaims in the California Superior Court action, both as described immediately below.

     The Company believes that the claims and allegations asserted in each of the foregoing putative class action lawsuits are without merit, and intends to vigorously defend against these lawsuits if the proposed settlement of them is not approved by the Delaware Court of Chancery.

     In the opinion of management, resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company.

Oracle v. PeopleSoft — Delaware Court of Chancery

     On June 18, 2003, Oracle and Pepper Acquisition Corp. filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery (Case No. 20377-NC) (captioned Oracle Corp. v. PeopleSoft, Inc.) against the Company, several of its directors (the “Director Defendants”), and J.D. Edwards, alleging that the named directors breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the response to Oracle’s tender offer,

16

and that J.D. Edwards aided and abetted the named directors’ purported breach of fiduciary duty. Oracle sought injunctive, declaratory and rescissory relief.

     On June 24, 2004, Oracle and Pepper Acquisition Corp. filed an amended complaint in this action, eliminating J.D. Edwards as a separate defendant and adding PeopleSoft director Michael Maples as a defendant. The amended complaint updates the plaintiffs’ claims challenging PeopleSoft’s response to Oracle’s tender offer and alleges, among other things, that the directors of PeopleSoft have breached their duty of loyalty and duty of care and that the customer assurance program violates Delaware corporation law and was implemented without proper approval or supervision by PeopleSoft’s Board of Directors. The amended complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, including an injunction prohibiting the future use of the customer assurance program and requiring PeopleSoft’s Board of Directors to eliminate the Company’s Shareholder Rights Plan.

     Discovery in this action is proceeding and is being coordinated with discovery in PeopleSoft’s action against Oracle in California, discussed below. Trial in the Delaware action has been scheduled to commence on September 27, 2004.

     The Company believes that the claims and allegations asserted in this action are without merit, and intends vigorously to defend against this lawsuit.

     In the opinion of management, resolution of this matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company.

PeopleSoft Stockholder Actions — California Superior Court for the County of Alameda

     On June 6, 2003, separate actions were filed in the California Superior Court for the County of Alameda by Doris Staehr (Case No. RG03100291), the West Virginia Laborers Pension Trust Fund (Case No. RG03100306) and Lorrie McBride (Case No. RG03100300). On June 10, 2003, Ray Baldi (Case No. RG03100696) filed an additional case in the same court. The plaintiffs in these actions (collectively, the “Initial Alameda Shareholder Actions”) all purport to be PeopleSoft stockholders, and they make claims against several of PeopleSoft’s executive officers and directors. The suits allege that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with (i) the response to Oracle’s tender offer, (ii) the Company’s agreement to acquire J.D. Edwards, and (iii) the implementation of the 2003 Directors Stock Plan, which was approved by the PeopleSoft stockholders at the 2003 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Plaintiffs seek injunctive, rescissory and declaratory relief. On June 16, 2003, the Initial Alameda Shareholder Actions were consolidated. On June 11 and 17, 2003, respectively, two additional actions were filed by Moshe Panzer (Case No. VG03100876) and Arace Brothers (Case No. VG03101830) asserting similar claims. By Order dated July 11, 2003, the Panzer and Arace Brothers actions were consolidated with the Initial Alameda Shareholder Actions (collectively “the Alameda Shareholder Actions”).

     By Order dated June 18, 2003, the Alameda County Superior Court granted the Company’s Motion to Stay the Initial Alameda Shareholder Actions pending resolution of the claims involving the duties of the defendant directors by the Delaware Court of Chancery. The California Court found that the stockholder actions required application of Delaware law, and that allowing the consolidated cases to proceed would create the specter of inconsistent orders. By Order dated July 11, 2003, the Alameda County Superior Court also stayed the Panzer and Arace Brothers cases pursuant to the June 18, 2003 Order in the Initial Alameda Shareholder Actions. Accordingly, all of the Alameda Shareholder Actions currently are stayed by order of the California Court.

     The Company believes that the claims and allegations asserted in each of the foregoing putative class action lawsuits are without merit, and intends to vigorously defend against these lawsuits if they are not dismissed by virtue of the settlement of the Delaware putative stockholder class action discussed above, or if that settlement is not approved by the Delaware Court of Chancery.

     In the opinion of management, resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company.

PeopleSoft v. Oracle — California Superior Court for the County of Alameda

     On June 13, 2003, PeopleSoft filed an action in the California Superior Court for the County of Alameda against Oracle and its subsidiary Pepper Acquisition Corp. and unnamed defendants affiliated with the two named defendants (Case No. RG03101434).

     On December 12, 2003, the Company filed a second amended complaint, incorporating claims formerly pursued by J.D. Edwards, which is now a subsidiary of the Company. In this lawsuit, PeopleSoft alleges that in connection with Oracle’s tender offer, the

17

defendants have engaged in: (i) untrue and misleading advertising in violation of California’s Business & Professions Code; (ii) unlawful disparagement of the Company’s products and services; (iii) unlawful interference with the Company’s relationships with its customers and prospective customers; and (iv) unfair trade practices in violation of California’s Business & Professions Code. The Company’s second amended complaint, portions of which have been filed with the California Court under seal, alleges new facts about what the Company believes are Oracle’s ongoing acts of unfair trade practices and attempts to eliminate PeopleSoft as a competitor, and Oracle’s deliberate campaign to mislead our customers about Oracle’s plans to terminate our products and force customers to migrate to Oracle systems. The Company seeks injunctive relief precluding Oracle from engaging in unfair trade practices and other unlawful actions, and from proceeding with the tender offer. The Company also seeks restitution and damages, including damage caused to J.D. Edwards. On January 20, 2004, Oracle demurred to the second amended complaint, which the court overruled on February 25, 2004.

     On March 30, 2004, Oracle filed a cross-complaint against PeopleSoft and members of its board, alleging, among other things, that they acted illegally in refusing to accept Oracle’s tender offer and in implementing a customer assurance program. The cross-complaint alleges causes of action for interference with prospective economic advantage and violations of various sections of California’s Civil Code and Business & Professions Code. Oracle seeks damages, restitution, punitive damages, and injunctive and equitable relief. PeopleSoft and the board members filed an answer to the cross-complaint on April 29, 2004, denying the allegations of the cross-complaint and asserting several affirmative defenses. The Company believes that the claims and allegations asserted in the cross-complaint are without merit, and intends to vigorously defend against them.

     On May 5, 2004, the court issued an order setting a jury trial in the action to commence on November 1, 2004.

     In the opinion of management, resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company.

Other Matters

     The Company is party to various legal disputes and proceedings arising from the ordinary course of general business activities. In the opinion of management, resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse affect on the financial position, results of the operations and cash flows of the Company. However, depending on the amount and the timing, an unfavorable resolution of some or all of these matters could materially affect the Company’s future results of operations or cash flows in a particular period.

12. Segment Information

     The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). While the CEO is apprised of a variety of financial metrics and information, PeopleSoft is principally managed on a geographic basis in terms of revenue and segment margin performance. The Company’s two geographic business segments are: North America, which includes the United States and Canada, and International, which includes all other geographic regions. Operating expenses are managed functionally on a global basis. Assets are not identified with geographic segments because the CEO does not evaluate that information to make resource allocation decisions.

     Revenues are defined as revenues generated from unaffiliated customers. The segment margins reported for the North America and International business segments are computed by subtracting cost of revenues from revenues from unaffiliated customers. Cost of revenues includes the cost of license, cost of services and the direct selling cost included in sales and marketing expense. Operating expenses, which are managed functionally on a global basis, include corporate marketing, product development, general and administrative expenses as well as restructuring, acquisition and other charges.

     The accounting policies for each of the reportable segments are the same as those used on a consolidated basis. The following table presents a summary of operating information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 (in thousands):

Three Months Ended June 30,

18

Six Months Ended June 30,

     Revenues from the Europe/Middle-East/Africa region represented 17% and 15% of revenues, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Revenues from the Europe/Middle-East/Africa region represented 18% and 14% of revenues, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. No other international region had revenues equal to or greater than 10% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Revenues originated in each individual foreign country were less than 5% of total revenues during the three and six months ended June 31, 2004 and 2003 with the exception of Canada. Canadian revenues comprised 6% of total revenues for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, revenues attributable to the U.S. were $431.3 million and $343.5 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, revenues attributable to the U.S. were $852.4 million and $668.5 million, respectively.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     This Quarterly Report contains descriptions of our expectations regarding our future results and trends affecting our business and other forward-looking statements, all of which are subject to risks and uncertainties. Use of the future tense and words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “should” and “will” and similar expressions as they relate to PeopleSoft, Inc. are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report are made in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Future results in particular are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results and performance to differ significantly from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. For a discussion of risks and uncertainties and other factors that could affect future results, see “Factors That May Affect Our Future Results or The Market Price of Our Stock.” starting on page 36. We undertake no obligation to update the information contained in this Quarterly Report.

MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW

     PeopleSoft, Inc. designs, develops, markets, implements and supports enterprise application software products for use throughout large and medium sized organizations worldwide. These organizations include corporations, educational institutions, non-profit organizations and national, state, provincial and local government agencies. Our strategy is to offer comprehensive applications that enable organizations to manage mission critical business processes and analyze and enhance their relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and partners.

Business Environment

     Our revenues for the second quarter and the first six months of 2004 increased relative to the same period last year, due to the addition of new product offerings from the acquisition of J.D. Edwards & Company (J.D. Edwards) and an improving economic environment. The impact of the Oracle Tender Offer (see below) continues to affect sales of licenses to new and existing customers resulting in longer customer sales cycles. In the second quarter of 2004, the added publicity of the anti-trust trial brought by the Department of Justice against Oracle further impacted customer confidence regarding the continued development and support of PeopleSoft’s products. We believe this added uncertainty impacted our second quarter 2004 revenue by causing delays in the sales cycle, delayed closure of deals and a decline in the average selling price, as we had to give larger discounts in certain cases and close smaller sized deals than initially anticipated. We believe our professional service revenue was also impacted, as customers delayed implementing software they had already licensed, pending the completion of the anti-trust trial. Additionally, the Oracle Tender Offer related litigation and the anti-trust trial have consumed extensive human and financial resources.

Financial Highlights

	•		Our total revenues for the second quarter of 2004 were $647.3 million, a 30% increase over the second quarter of 2003. Our total revenues for the first six months of 2004 were $1,290.4 million, a 35% increase over the first six months of 2003. The primary reason for the increase in revenues for the second quarter and the first six months of 2004 is the addition of new product offerings from the acquisition of J.D. Edwards. Second quarter 2004 license fees of $130 million increased by $18.3 million over the same period last year. License fees for the first six months of 2004 increased by $68.3 million to $260.9 million. The growth in license fees is due to the licensing of PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne and PeopleSoft World software as a result of the expansion of our product families from the acquisition of J.D. Edwards. We experienced an increase in maintenance fees of $96.7 million and $193.6 million for the second quarter of 2004 and for the first six months of 2004, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2003 due to an increase in our installed base of customers under maintenance agreements. Professional service revenue increased $34.8 million and $70.7 million for the second quarter of 2004 and for the first six months of 2004, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2003 as PeopleSoft’s consulting organization continued to win new customers.
	•		Due to the impact of purchase accounting charges resulting from the acquisition of J.D. Edwards and costs associated with the Oracle Tender Offer, our net income for the second quarter and the first six months of 2004 declined. Our net income decreased to $11 million in the second quarter of 2004 from $36.5 million in the second quarter of 2003. Our net income decreased to $35.2 million in the first six months of 2004 from $75 million in the first six months of 2003. The purchase accounting charges (after-tax) are primarily comprised of the amortization of capitalized software and other intangible assets of $16.4 million and $32.9 million and restructuring charges of $2.5 million and $7.6 million for the second quarter and the first six months of 2004, respectively. Expenses (after-tax) of responding to the Oracle Tender Offer were $10.5 million and

20

			$18.7 million for the second quarter and the first six months of 2004, respectively, and are comprised primarily of legal and investment banker fees.
	•		Cash provided by operations in the first six months of 2004 was approximately $204.8 million. During the first six months of 2004, our cash and investment balances increased by $186.9 million, when compared to our cash and investment balances at December 31, 2003.

     Integration of J.D. Edwards & Company

     We acquired J.D. Edwards in the third quarter of 2003 for approximately $2 billion, making PeopleSoft the second largest provider of enterprise application software in the world based on total revenues. We now have over 12,400 customers and approximately 11,500 employees. The combination has made PeopleSoft:

	•		a leader in both the mid-sized and large enterprise market-segments with three product families of high quality enterprise applications: PeopleSoft Enterprise, PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne and PeopleSoft World. (PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne and PeopleSoft World applications are primarily comprised of the former J.D. Edwards 5 and J.D. Edwards World Software applications.)
	•		a recognized leader in serving the enterprise software needs of service related industries including: financial services, communications, healthcare, education and government. PeopleSoft is also a leading provider to manufacturing and distribution related industries including: industrial and wholesale distribution, consumer products, pulp and paper manufacturing, life sciences and the construction industry.

     In the second quarter of 2004, we continued to execute on our J.D. Edwards integration plans across the Company as we consolidate redundant facilities, combine operations globally and integrate our various general and administrative functions. As of June 30, 2004, we were ahead of our internal planned cost reduction schedule targets and we remain confident in our stated objective of achieving $167 million to $207 million in revenue and cost synergies for the full year of 2004 as a part of the J.D. Edwards integration plan.

Oracle Tender Offer

     On June 9, 2003, following our announcement to acquire J.D. Edwards, Oracle Corporation (“Oracle”) launched a hostile tender offer of $16.00 per share to acquire PeopleSoft. On June 18, 2003, Oracle increased its bid to $19.50 per share. On June 12, 2003 and again June 19, 2003, based upon a recommendation from the Transaction Committee of our Board of Directors, our Board of Directors unanimously recommended that our stockholders reject the offer because the Board believed that the offer would face prolonged regulatory delays, with a significant likelihood that the offer would not be allowed to proceed and that Oracle’s offers significantly undervalued PeopleSoft. On February 4, 2004, Oracle amended its offer to increase the purchase price from $19.50 to $26.00 per share. On February 7, 2004, based upon the recommendation of the Transaction Committee, the Board unanimously recommended that our stockholders reject the revised offer because the Board believed the offer is inadequate from a financial point of view and does not reflect PeopleSoft’s real value, and the proposed combination of PeopleSoft and Oracle continues to face substantial regulatory scrutiny in both the United States and Europe and there is a significant likelihood that the transaction will be prohibited under antitrust law.

     On February 26, 2004, the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”), joined by the states of Texas, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York and North Dakota filed a civil antitrust suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California to enjoin Oracle’s proposed acquisition of PeopleSoft. The plaintiffs allege that the effect of the proposed acquisition of PeopleSoft by Oracle would be to lessen competition substantially in interstate trade and commerce in violation of the Clayton Act. On April 14, 2004, the DOJ’s complaint was amended to add as plaintiffs the states of Connecticut, Michigan and Ohio. The trial commenced June 7, 2004 and closing arguments were presented on July 20, 2004.

     On February 13, 2004, the European Commission announced that the four-month schedule of the second stage of its investigation had resumed and that the provisional deadline by which the European Commission must decide whether it will challenge the proposed acquisition is May 11, 2004. On April 14, 2004, this deadline was extended indefinitely pending receipt of information requested from Oracle by the European Commission.

     On May 14, 2004, Oracle amended its offer to decrease the purchase price from $26.00 per share to $21.00 per share. On May 26,

21

2004, based upon the recommendation of the Transaction Committee, the Board unanimously recommended that our stockholders reject the revised offer because the Board believed the offer is inadequate from a financial point of view and does not reflect PeopleSoft’s real value, and the proposed combination of PeopleSoft and Oracle continues to face substantial regulatory scrutiny in both the United States and Europe and there is a significant likelihood that the transaction will be prohibited under antitrust law. On July 12, 2004, Oracle announced extension of its tender offer period to August 27, 2004. If the trial judge in the DOJ lawsuit referred to above were to rule against Oracle, but Oracle appeals that ruling, the delay and uncertainty regarding the outcome of the Oracle Tender Offer may continue to disrupt and damage our business. If the trial judge in the DOJ lawsuit referred to above were to rule against the DOJ, our ability to successfully conduct our business could be materially adversely impacted.

     The Oracle tender offer will continue to be a distraction to management at least until the outcomes of the U.S. antitrust litigation and European review are known.

     The recommendations to stockholders by the PeopleSoft Board of Directors are discussed and included in PeopleSoft’s Solicitation/ Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 and the amendments thereto filed with the SEC. These documents can be obtained without charge at www.sec.gov and www.peoplesoft.com. Our stockholders should read these filings as they contain important information about the Oracle Tender Offer and the Board’s recommendations. From June 6, 2003 through June 30, 2004 we incurred over $70 million in investment banking, legal and other fees and a significant amount of internal resources to respond to the tender offer and the related lawsuits. During the second quarter of 2004, we incurred $17.2 million in investment banking, legal and other fees and a significant amount of internal resources to respond to the tender offer and the related lawsuits. See Part II, Item 1 — Legal Proceedings. It is not possible to predict the amount of money or internal resources that will be required to respond to the Oracle Tender Offer in the future.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following table indicates the percentage of total revenues and the percentage of period-over-period changes represented by line items in our consolidated statements of operations:

     Net income decreased $25.6 million or 70% from $36.5 million in the second quarter of 2003 to $11 million in the second quarter of 2004. Diluted income per share decreased from $0.11 per share in the second quarter of 2003 to $0.03 per share in the second quarter of 2004. For the first six months of 2004 net income decreased $39.8 million or 53% from $75 million in the first six months

22

of 2003 to $35.2 million in the first six months of 2004. Diluted income per share decreased from $0.23 per share in the first six months of 2003 to $0.10 per share in the first six months of 2004.

Revenues

License Fee Revenues

     Our software products generally are licensed to end-user customers under non-exclusive, perpetual license agreements. Revenue from license fees increased by 16% in the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the second quarter of 2003 and 35% for the first six months of 2004 as compared to the first six months of 2003. The increase was driven by the addition of the PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne and PeopleSoft World product families to our product offerings. We believe the ongoing impact of the Oracle Tender Offer and the anti-trust trial brought by the Department of Justice against Oracle and the related publicity negatively impacted our second quarter 2004 revenue. In the second quarter of 2004 we added 160 new customers compared to 109 in the same quarter last year. In the first six months of 2004, while the global economy is improving modestly, technology spending appears to remain sluggish. In the coming quarters, we expect to see a gradual strengthening of the economy and seasonal increases in software license purchases by new and existing customers, however, our ability to grow license revenue will largely depend on the outcome of the Oracle anti-trust trial and the related publicity.

Services Revenues

     Our services revenue consists of software maintenance fees and professional services fees, which includes consulting fees, customer training fees, hosting fees and other miscellaneous fees.

     The increase in maintenance revenue in the second quarter and the first six months of 2004 as compared to the same periods last year is primarily attributable to the growth of our installed base of software applications, arising from sales to both new and existing customers. As a result of the acquisition of J.D. Edwards in July 2003, our installed base of customers has grown considerably. At the end of the second quarter 2004, we had an increase of approximately 639 installed customers over the end of the second quarter of 2003. In accordance with the purchase method of accounting, we were required to record J.D. Edwards deferred maintenance revenue at fair value as of the acquisition date reducing our maintenance revenue related to that expanded customer base by $14.9 million in the second quarter of 2004 and by $39.2 million in the first six months of 2004. As the J.D. Edwards customers, having deferred maintenance balances as of the acquisition date, renew their contracts with PeopleSoft during the remainder of 2004, we expect to increase revenues without incurring additional costs.

     The increase in professional services revenue in the second quarter and the first six months of 2004 is primarily due to additional consulting revenue attributed to the addition of the PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne and PeopleSoft World product families. We believe that our professional services was negatively impacted by the Oracle anti-trust trial, as customers delayed implementing software they had already licensed, pending the outcome of the trial. Changes in license revenues during a given period may also adversely impact our future services revenue, since professional services are typically related to our licensing activity in prior quarters.

     Our ability to maintain or increase maintenance or professional services revenue in the future depends primarily on our ability to

23

increase our installed customer base, renew maintenance agreements, and to maintain or increase the number or size of our professional services engagements.

Revenues by Segment

     The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). While the CEO is apprised of a variety of financial metrics and information, PeopleSoft is principally managed on a geographic basis in terms of revenue and segment margin performance. The Company’s two geographic business segments are: North America, which includes the United States and Canada, and International, which includes all other geographic regions. Revenues by geographic segment from external customers for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 were:

     Total revenues from the North America segment increased by 26% in the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the second quarter of 2003 and by 27% in the first six months of 2004 as compared to the first six months of 2003. As a percentage of total segment revenues, revenues from the North America segment were 71% in the second quarter of 2004 and 74% in the second quarter of 2003 and 70% in the first six months of 2004 and 75% in the first six months of 2003. Total revenues from the International segment increased by 43% in the second quarter of 2004 from the second quarter of 2003 and by 59% in the first six months of 2004 as compared to the first six months of 2003. As a percentage of total segment revenues, revenues from the International segment were 29% in the second quarter of 2004 and 26% in the second quarter of 2003 and 30% in the first six months of 2004 and 25% in the first six months of 2003. The increase in revenues from the second quarter and the first six months of 2003 to the second quarter and the first six months of 2004 resulted primarily from the acquisition of J.D. Edwards.

     In the North America segment, revenues attributable to the United States were $431.3 million and $852.4 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2004 and $343.5 million and $668.5 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2003. Revenues from the Europe/Middle-East/Africa region represented 17% and 15% of revenues, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Revenues from the Europe/Middle-East/Africa region represented 18% and 14% of revenues, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. No other international region had revenues equal to or greater than 10% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. Revenues originated in each individual foreign country were less than 5% of total revenues during the three and six months ended June 31, 2004 and 2003 with the exception of Canada. Canadian revenues comprised 6% of total revenues for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003.

Costs and Expenses

Cost of Licenses Fees

     Our software products are based on a combination of internally developed and acquired technology, as well as bundled third party products and technology. Costs of license fees consist principally of royalties, license fees for certain third party software products, amortization of capitalized software and product warranty costs. The second quarter of 2004 increase of 159% over the same period last year primarily results from $11.3 million in amortization costs for the capitalized software acquired in the J.D. Edwards acquisition and from a $4.1 million increase in the cost of license fees associated with changes in the mix of royalty bearing license contracts and the increase in our license revenues in the same period. The increase of 163% for the six months ended June 2004 over the same period last year primarily results from $22.6 million in amortization costs for the capitalized software acquired in the J.D. Edwards acquisition and from a $6.5 million increase in the cost of license fees associated with changes in the mix of royalty bearing license contracts and the increase in our license revenues in the same period.

24

Cost of Services

     Cost of services consists primarily of employee costs and the related infrastructure costs incurred in providing professional services and maintenance. Cost of services increased by 36% in the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the second quarter of 2003, and 36% in the six months ended June 2004 as compared to the six months ended June 2003, primarily due to the expansion of the support organization resulting from the larger installed base created by the J.D. Edwards acquisition and the expansion of the professional services activities and organization. Cost of services also increased $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2004 and $17.6 million for the six months ended June 2004 due to the amortization of acquired intangible assets for maintenance relationships and consulting agreements acquired from J.D. Edwards. Cost of services as a percentage of services revenues was 44% in the second quarter and first six months of 2004. Cost of services as a percentage of services revenues was 43% for the second quarter and first six months of 2003. If the demand for services from new and existing customers for installation, consulting, maintenance and training services increases over the next several quarters, we anticipate that our cost of services may also increase.

Sales and Marketing Expense

     The increase in sales and marketing expense in the second quarter of 2004 and the first six months of 2004 as compared to the same periods last year is primarily due to costs associated with the growth of our sales force and marketing activities to support our expanded product line and geographic scope following the integration of J.D. Edwards. These expense increases are primarily attributed to compensation and related infrastructure costs associated with our expanded sales force. Additionally, the second quarter and first six months of 2004 includes $3.8 million and $7.5 million, respectively, of amortization of intangible assets relating to acquired customer relationships. Sales and marketing expense may increase in future periods as we increase our sales force and marketing and advertising expenses to increase our competitive positioning in the marketplace and to promote brand awareness and global recognition of our products.

Product Development Expense

     Product development expense consists primarily of costs related to our software developers and the associated infrastructure costs of product development initiatives. The 63% increase in product development expense in the second quarter of 2004 as well as the 58% increase in the first six months of 2004 as compared to the comparable periods in 2003 were primarily due to the expansion of our development organization to support our expanded product offerings following the acquisition of J.D. Edwards. The second quarter and first six months of 2004 also includes amortization of intangible assets acquired from J.D. Edwards of $3 million and $6 million, respectively, for acquired patented technology. In addition, we incurred higher costs for outsourced development of $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2004 and $6.7 million for the first six months of 2004 as compared to the same period last year. We did not capitalize any internal development costs in the second quarter of 2004 or six month period ending June 30, 2004. Our current focus is to continue to extend our software offerings by delivering enhanced functionality to all three product families and to further develop new applications across both the PeopleSoft Enterprise and PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne application families.

General and Administrative Expense

     General and administrative expense consists primarily of salary and other employee related costs plus outside service costs to perform legal, finance, and human resource functions. In addition, corporate insurance is recorded as general and administrative costs. The increase in general and administrative expense for the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the second quarter of 2003 includes additional administrative staff, infrastructure costs and other costs resulting from the J.D. Edwards acquisition and an increase in legal and investment banker fees of $5.6 million relating to our response to the Oracle Tender Offer and related legal proceedings. The increase in general and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003 includes additional administrative staff, infrastructure costs and other costs resulting from the J.D. Edwards acquisition, an increase in legal and investment banker fees of $18.4 relating to our response to the Oracle Tender Offer and related legal proceedings and an increase in third party integration fees of $4.7 million relating to the J.D. Edwards acquisition. It is not possible to predict the amount of money or internal resources that will be required to respond to the Oracle Tender Offer and related legal proceedings in 2004. We expect the third party integration costs to decline in the remainder of 2004 as the integration of J.D. Edwards is completed.

Restructuring, Acquisition and Other Charges

     The following table sets forth the components of “Restructuring, acquisition and other charges”:

     Restructuring charges and adjustments of $4 million in the second quarter of 2004 and of $12.3 million in the six month period ending June 30, 2004 are primarily the result of the Third Quarter 2003 Restructuring Plan relating to the acquisition of J.D. Edwards. In connection with the Third Quarter 2003 Restructuring Plan, we initiated plans to restructure our pre-acquisition operations to eliminate certain duplicative activities and reduce our cost structure. The costs associated with that plan include costs for employee severance, acquisition related employee retention, consolidating duplicate facilities and contract terminations. Terminated employees entitled to receive payments under this plan primarily consisted of general and administrative, consulting, and sales and marketing employees. The second quarter 2004 restructuring charge includes approximately $0.7 million related to employee costs and $3.3 million related to costs of consolidating duplicate facilities. The six month period ending June 30, 2004 restructuring charge includes approximately $3.2 million related to employee costs and $9.1 million related to costs of consolidating duplicate facilities. Of the $9.1 million in facilities costs, approximately $4 million relates to impaired furniture and equipment assets which were identified as certain duplicate facilities were vacated. Future cash payments related to these restructuring liabilities for employee costs are expected to be made through October 2004. Future cash payments related to facilities obligations are expected to be made through March 2012. Although management believes the liabilities recorded under the plans are substantially quantified, estimated restructuring costs may change in the future.

     Restructuring charges of $13.8 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2003 relate to the second quarter 2003 restructuring plan. These restructuring charges consisted of employee severance charges, fair value of lease obligations associated with the closure of an office facility and leasehold improvement write-offs. This restructuring plan was completed in the second quarter of 2004.
