"It was good to see strength in the first half of 2016 despite global volatility and adverse currency shifts," said Ken Stillwell, Pegasystems CFO. "We continue to drive long-term, strategic value for our new and existing clients who select us as their key strategic partner. While our openness to licensing to clients through term, cloud, or perpetual can lead to quarterly variations, we are excited by our long-term growth trend as a true value measure."

Cash: Total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities at June 30, 2016 was $137.6 million, down 37% from 2015 year-end, primarily due to the cash payment of $48.8 million to acquire OpenSpan Inc. ("OpenSpan"), net of cash acquired.

Cash generated from operations for the first six months of 2016 was $9.3 million.

License and Cloud Backlog: The Company computes license and cloud backlog by adding deferred license and cloud revenue as recorded on the Company's balance sheet and license and cloud commitments, which are not billed and not recorded on its balance sheet.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

To supplement financial results presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"), the Company provides non-GAAP measures, including in this release. Pegasystems' management utilizes a number of different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of the business, for making operating decisions, and for forecasting and planning for future periods. The Company's annual financial plan is prepared both on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis, and both are approved by our board of directors. In addition and as a consequence of the importance of these measures in managing the business, the Company uses non-GAAP measures and financial performance results in the evaluation process to establish management's compensation.

The non-GAAP measures exclude the effects of certain business combination accounting entries, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles, acquisition-related and restructuring expenses, and certain other adjustments. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures are helpful in understanding its past financial performance and its anticipated future results. These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP to non-GAAP measures is included in the financial schedules at the end of this release.

                SELECTED GAAP MEASURES TO NON-GAAP MEASURES                 
(1)  This presentation includes non-GAAP measures. Our non-GAAP measures are
     not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for         
     comparable GAAP measures, and should be read only in conjunction with  
     our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
     For a detailed explanation of the adjustments made to comparable GAAP  
     measures, the reasons why management uses these measures, the          
     usefulness of these measures, and the material limitations on the      
     usefulness of these measures see disclosure under Discussion of Non-   
     GAAP Financial Measures included earlier in this release and below. Our
     non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following 
     items, as well as the related income tax effects:                      
                                                                            
     Revenue: Business combination accounting rules require that we         
     determine the fair value of the deferred revenue liability for         
     contractual obligations assumed primarily from our acquisition of      
     OpenSpan in April 2016. In post-acquisition reporting periods, we      
     recognize revenue for the fair value of these contracts, when all the  
     revenue recognition criteria are satisfied, instead of the revenue that
     would have been recognized by OpenSpan as an independent company. We   
     add back the effect of the deferred revenue fair value adjustment in   
     non-GAAP revenue to reflect the full amount of these revenues to       
     provide a more complete comparison of the revenue guidance to peer     
     companies. No adjustments were made to revenue for 2015.               
                                                                            
     Amortization of intangible assets: We have excluded the amortization   
     expense of intangible assets from our non-GAAP operating expenses and  
     net earnings measures. Amortization of intangible assets is            
     inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by  
     the timing and size of our acquisitions. Investors should note that the
     use of intangible assets contributed to our revenues earned during the 
     periods presented and will contribute to our future period revenues as 
     well. Amortization of intangible assets will recur in future periods.  
                                                                            
     Stock-based compensation expense: We have excluded stock-based         
     compensation expense from our non-GAAP operating expenses and net      
     earnings measures. Although stock-based compensation is a key incentive
     offered to our employees, and we believe such compensation contributed 
     to the revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute
     to the generation of future period revenues, we continue to evaluate   
     our business performance excluding stock-based compensation expense.   
                                                                            
     Acquisition-related and restructuring expenses: We have excluded the   
     effect of acquisition-related and restructuring expenses from our non- 
     GAAP operating expenses and net earnings measures. We incurred direct  
     and incremental expenses associated primarily with the OpenSpan        
     acquisition. These acquisition-related expenses were primarily         
     professional fees to affect the acquisition. We have also incurred     
     restructuring expenses for one-time employee termination benefits      
     related to the closure of one of our domestic offices, which we        
     generally would not have otherwise incurred in the periods presented as
     a part of our continuing operations. We believe it is useful for       
     investors to understand the effects of these items on our total        
     operating expenses.                                                    
                                                                            
     Other adjustments: We reached an agreement with the former shareholders
     of Antenna Software, Inc., which we acquired in October 2013           
     ("Antenna"), to release a portion of the funds held in escrow as       
     security for their indemnification obligations to us in settlement of  
     the outstanding indemnification claims. The settlement resulted in a   
     benefit to cost of revenue and operating expenses in the first quarter 
     of 2015. In addition, we favorably settled indirect tax liabilities    
     related to the Antenna acquisition, which resulted in a benefit to     
     operating expenses in the first quarter of 2015. In the second quarter 
     of 2016, we reduced our estimate of the additional cash consideration  
     payable to the selling shareholders of one of the three companies      
     acquired in 2014 based on the achievement of certain milestones. We    
     believe the benefits associated with these items are not representative
     of our ongoing business, and we have excluded the effects of these     
     items from our non-GAAP operating results and net earnings measures.

     assets as of June 30, 2016 is as follows:

     rate of 33.7% and 31% for the second quarter of 2016 and 2015,         
     respectively. The non-GAAP income tax effects were calculated using an 
     effective non-GAAP tax rate of 33.2% and 32.8% for the second quarter

     rate of 33.4% and 34.3% for the first six months of 2016 and 2015,     
     respectively. The non-GAAP income tax effects were calculated using an 
     effective non-GAAP tax rate of 33.1% and 31.9% for the first six months

     The difference between our GAAP and non-GAAP effective tax rates in    
     second quarter of 2016 primarily relates to the impact of unfavorable  
     foreign stock compensation adjustments on our GAAP effective tax rate, 
     partially offset by higher non-GAAP income subjected to tax in higher  
     tax jurisdictions. The difference between our GAAP and non-GAAP        
     effective tax rates in the second quarter of 2015 primarily relates to 
     the impact of non-GAAP income subjected to tax in higher tax rate      
     jurisdictions during the period.
