Angoss reports revenue and profit growth in third quarter

Toronto, Canada October 2, 2007 — Angoss Software Corporation (Angoss) (TSX-V: ANC) today announced unaudited results for the third quarter and nine months ending August 31, 2007.

During the third quarter, revenues of $1,965,009 were up 19% from 2006 results ($1,652,517). For the nine months ended August 31, 2007 revenues of $5,449,645 were up 9% over 2006 results ($4,998,295). The Company's billed revenues in the quarter were approximately $2.26 million, an increase of 126% over prior year third quarter billed revenues of approximately $1.0 million. In year to date results, billed revenues were $5.4 million, up 21% from prior year billed revenues of $4.5 million.

Third quarter operating profit of $364,633 was up 145% over prior year third quarter operating profit of $148,821. Net income was $162,191 compared with third quarter 2006 net income of $2,540. In year to date results operating income and net income were $642,893 (2006: $605,152) and $83,654 (2006: $257,565), respectively.

Third quarter operating expenses of $1,600,376 were up 6% from the third quarter of 2006 ($1,503,696). For the year to date operating expenses were $4,806,752, up 9% from 2006 year to date expenses of $4,393,447.

The Company continues to focus on expanding its predictive analytics solutions offerings for existing and new clients in the financial services and information and communications technology industries. The Company provides predictive analytics solutions for these clients using both software licensing and on demand subscription delivery models.

Billed revenues are cyclical, reflecting implementation timing and stages for Angoss on demand client solutions, and knowledge transfer services associated with licensed technology sales. The Company expects fluctuations in quarterly billed revenues will continue while the Company expands its opportunity pipeline and backlog of signed contracts for future period deliveries of both subscription service offerings and implementation services and knowledge transfer associated with software sales.

Revenue growth resulted from expanded deployments of the Angoss KnowledgeSEEKER®, KnowledgeSTUDIO® and StrategyBUILDER™ predictive analytics software for financial services marketing and credit risk management applications, expanded mutual fund industry sales of the Angoss FundGUARD™ on demand marketing, sales targeting and predictive leads system with existing and new mutual fund customers, and initial implementation services for the follow on phase for its ClaimGUARD™ fraud and abuse detection subscription solution with a leading North American benefits insurance provider. During the quarter the Company also expanded its Telecom Marketing Analytics™ solution implementation with a leading North American telecommunications service provider, and signed an initial proof of concept for its on demand predictive analytics offering with one of the world's leading wireless appliance manufacturers.

"Our proven ability to deliver more powerful, more usable and more affordable predictive analytics software systems than traditional statistical tools vendors, combined with our ability to deliver sophisticated predictive analytics solutions via on demand subscriptions for organizations looking to achieve business results faster without the cost and complexity of traditional tools based approaches, are combining to create interesting business growth opportunities" commented Angoss President Eric Apps.

Year to date changes in the mix of operating expenses reflect higher billed revenue growth, expanded sales and marketing investments for demand generation, and shifting of personnel formerly engaged in research and development to client facing roles primarily supporting the Company's on demand subscriptions based business. Operating expenses were also impacted by continued research and development expense which resulted in the completion of a major software platform upgrade, administrative costs associated with the Company's relocation to new premises, as well as investments in data center infrastructure to support the Company's on demand subscription based business. These investments should support higher revenue growth and improved operating margins on both packaged software sales and for the delivery of Angoss on demand analytics solutions as the Company's business base expands.

Operating income growth has been positively impacted by revenue growth, partially offset by increased sales and marketing expenses. Lower net income resulted from primarily increased amortization expense for capital assets and foreign exchange impacts associated with the decline in value of the US Dollar. The continuing relative decline of the US Dollar is currently expected to continue to impact on revenues through the balance of 2007 and into 2008.

During the third quarter, the Company released to beta distribution the newest version of the Angoss data mining and predictive analytics suite, incorporating new data preparation, scorecard creation and strategy design capabilities.

Additional client signings during the third quarter as well as planned enhancements of the FundGUARD™ solution to provide additional analytics and execution capabilities for mutual fund marketing and sales organizations reflect the expanded Angoss leadership position in this market segment.
