Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
*Compuware acquired Gomez on November 9, 2009; only revenue following the acquisition date is included in the FY ‘11 GAAP comparisons of total APM license and subscription fees. The pro forma FY ’11 comparison is presented as if the acquisition occurred as of the beginning of FY ’10.
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the financial information included in and following this press release uses a non-GAAP measure for net income and earnings per share. Compuware management believes the non-GAAP financial information provided in this release is useful to investors’ understanding and assessment of Compuware’s ongoing core operations and prospects for the future. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP information in operating and evaluating its business and as such has determined that it is important to provide this information to investors. A reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP information is contained in the financial statements following this press release.

(a)
|
Compuware divested its Quality and DevPartner product lines during the first quarter of fiscal 2010. For comparison purposes, the Products Commitments schedule excludes Quality and DevPartner license revenue, maintenance revenue and product commitments from the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 period.

As Compuware continues to emphasize solution selling, deals are becoming more complex, increasing the likelihood that software transactions will be recognized ratably over the maintenance term. Therefore to understand the health of Compuware's software business, we believe it is important to also consider the amount of product commitments during the reported periods.
