REPORTS 2006 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS BEDFORD, MASS. - NOVEMBER 2, 2006 - Aware, Inc. (NASDAQ: AWRE), a leading supplier of broadband technology and biometrics software, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2006. Revenues for the third quarter of 2006 increased 31% to $6.7 million, from $5.1 million in the same quarter last year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, revenues increased 47% to $17.6 million, compared to $12.0 million in the same period a year ago. The Company reports its net income and basic and diluted net income per share in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and additionally, on a non-GAAP basis. Non-GAAP net income, where applicable, excludes the effect of stock-based compensation expense. The company uses the non-GAAP information internally to evaluate its operating performance and believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors as they provide additional insight into the underlying operating results. However, non-GAAP measures are not stated in accordance with, should not be considered in isolation from, and are not a substitute for, GAAP measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the attached financial tables. GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2006 was $0.8 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, which included $0.5 million of stock-based compensation charges, as this was the Company's third quarter subject to the provisions of FAS 123(R).
