Simulations Plus, Inc. (OTCBB: SIMU), the leading provider of ADME absorption simulation and neural net structure-to-property prediction software for pharmaceutical discovery and development, today announced that a global pharmaceutical company has signed a multi-year global software license agreement. The first multi-year global license by a large pharmaceutical company was announced by the Company in the fourth quarter of its previous fiscal year in August 2003. Neither customer has agreed to be identified. Ron Creeley, vice president of marketing and sales for Simulations Plus and the company's Words+ subsidiary, said, "We're pleased to announce another multi-year license agreement for Simulations Plus software. Because this two-year license covers only a portion of our software offerings for the customer's multiple research sites, we believe that we still have the opportunity to license additional software to this customer during the two-year period. As we have noted earlier, we continue to pursue multi-year global license agreements with other large pharmaceutical customers as one part of our growth strategy." Momoko Beran, chief financial officer for Simulations Plus, added, "This license, added to our other pharmaceutical software license sales for the quarter, as well as improved sales for our Words+ subsidiary over last year's second quarter, is expected to result in another record for second quarter revenues. Preliminary figures indicate an increase in revenues of approximately 18% over last year's second quarter." The Company's second fiscal quarter ends on February 29. ABOUT SIMULATIONS PLUS, INC.
