A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP net income (loss) for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 and the nine months ended September 30, 2004 is included with this press release. "This quarter's performance exceeded our expectations as we reported non-GAAP profitability and record revenues," said Moshe Gavrielov, chief executive officer of Verisity. "The breadth of our product line helped drive the strong customer demand for VPA and platform solutions that automate system-wide verification processes and scale with our customers' complex electronic designs. We are confident that our competitive position remains strong and we will continue to invest heavily in the development of leading verification tools that help shorten our customers' time-to-market," concluded Gavrielov. The following statements are based on current expectations. These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. We do not plan to update, confirm or change this guidance until our next earnings conference call except by press release in the case of material events.

These measures differ from GAAP in that they exclude non-cash charges related to equity issuances, amortization of deferred compensation, and amortization of intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of Axis Systems which was completed on February 9, 2004. Verisity provides these measurements in addition to GAAP financial results because it believes they provide a consistent basis for comparison between quarters that is not influenced by certain non-cash expenses and therefore is helpful to understanding Verisity's underlying operational results. Further, these non-GAAP measures are some of the primary measures Verisity's management uses for planning and forecasting. These measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP, and these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to information provided by other companies.
