		FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Forrester Research Reports 15 Percent Revenue Increase For Second Quarter

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 25, 2007 . . . Forrester Research, Inc. (Nasdaq: FORR) today announced that its second quarter total revenues were $55.2 million, an increase of 15 percent from last year’s second quarter. First half of 2007 revenues totaled $102.6 million, an increase of 16 percent from the first half of 2006. Forrester also reported that it ended the quarter with cash and marketable securities of $233 million, up from $228 million at the end of the first quarter.

Because of the previously announced ongoing investigation into its stock option granting practices and the need to restate historical financial statements, Forrester is not in a position to provide, on either a GAAP or pro forma basis, operating expense, operating income, net income or earnings per share information on a historical basis or as part of a business outlook pending the completion of the restatement process. Based on the findings to date, Forrester expects to record a cumulative adjustment to non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $45-50 million, with most of the charge relating to years prior to 2003. The company does not expect that the anticipated restatement will have any impact on its previously reported revenues or cash positions.
