		Unica Announces Results for Fourth Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2006

		WALTHAM, Mass — November 30, 2006 — Unica^® Corporation (Nasdaq: UNCA), a leading global provider of Enterprise Marketing Management (EMM) solutions, today announced financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter and full year ended September 30, 2006.

		For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, Unica reported record total revenue of $24.3 million, an increase of 41% compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005. License revenue increased 52% to $12.1 million and maintenance and services revenue increased 31% to $12.1 million, compared to the prior year quarter. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, maintenance revenue was $9.0 million, an increase of 33% from the prior year quarter, and services revenue was $3.1 million, an increase of 27% from the prior year quarter.

		Yuchun Lee, chief executive officer of Unica Corporation, stated, “During the fourth quarter, our better than expected license and total revenue growth was driven by the growing adoption of our end-to-end EMM suite. Unica is able to deliver a compelling value proposition to our customers, and this was reflected in numerous large commitments made to our technology in the fourth quarter, particularly in the financial services sector.”

		Lee added, “As we enter fiscal 2007, we are very excited by the growing demand for and awareness of the EMM market. We believe EMM is in the early stage of market penetration, and we plan to continue to invest in the business throughout fiscal 2007 to grow our top line and extend our leadership position in order to take advantage of the large opportunity in front of us.”

		For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, Unica reported income from operations, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), of $472,000. GAAP income from operations includes $987,000 of non-cash share compensation expense and $669,000 of amortization of acquired intangibles. GAAP net income for the fiscal fourth quarter of 2006 was $770,000 compared to GAAP net income of $1.7 million in the same period last year. GAAP diluted net income per share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 was $0.04, compared to a loss of $0.15 per share in the same period last year.

		For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, non-GAAP income from operations, which excludes non-cash share compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangibles, was $2.1 million. Of note, non-GAAP income from operations included $255,000 in restructuring charges associated with the company’s operations in France. Based on an estimated 37% non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income was $1.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, compared to non-GAAP net income of $1.8 million for the same period last year. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share were $0.08 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006. This was in-line with the company’s previously issued guidance and compares to non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.10 in the same period last year when the effective non-GAAP tax rate was 34% and shares outstanding were 18.5 million.

		A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

		As of September 30, 2006, Unica had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $40.3 million, a decrease from $42.1 million at June 30, 2006. The decrease in cash was due to approximately $2.5 million in legal expenses and costs paid during the fourth quarter related to the previously disclosed legal settlement with NetRatings, Inc. At September 30, 2006, deferred revenue was $33.9 million, representing an increase of 38% on a year-over-year basis.

		Ralph Goldwasser, chief financial officer of Unica, stated, “Given the growing EMM market opportunity, we plan to invest aggressively in sales and marketing during the first half of fiscal 2007. We believe the company is well positioned to expand our non-GAAP operating margin over the course of Fiscal 2007, finishing the year with a non-GAAP operating margin in the mid-teens range.”

		Additional Fourth-Quarter Business Highlights:

	•		Continued to achieve success and growth with industry leaders across a broad range of vertical markets, including financial services, insurance, marketing services and telecom. New customers added during the fourth quarter included Vodafone New Zealand, Vodafone Netherlands, Generali France, The Huntington National Bank, Bank of Oklahoma, Catalina Marketing, Boyd Gaming Corporation and ASCP (American Society for Clinical Pathology). In addition, the company significantly expanded the scope of its relationship with several of the largest financial institutions in the world.

Full Year Fiscal 2006 Results:

For the full year fiscal 2006, Unica reported record total revenue of $82.4 million, an increase of 30% compared with fiscal 2005. In fiscal 2006, license revenue increased 35% to $39.6 million and maintenance and services revenue increased 25% to $42.8 million compared to fiscal 2005. For fiscal 2006, maintenance revenue was $32.5 million, an increase of 30% from the prior year, and services revenue was $10.3 million, an increase of 12% from the prior year.

Unica reported a loss from operations, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), of $1.3 million during fiscal 2006, including $3.0 million in non-cash share compensation expense, $4.0 million of in-process R&D and amortization of acquired intangibles of $1.8 million. GAAP net income for fiscal 2006 was $676,000, resulting in GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.03, compared to a loss per share of $0.03 in fiscal 2005.

On a non-GAAP basis, excluding non-cash share compensation expense, in process R & D and amortization of acquired intangibles, income from operations was $7.6 million in fiscal 2006. Non-GAAP income from operations included $255,000 in restructuring charges associated with the company’s operations in France. Based on an estimated 33% non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income was $6.4 million in fiscal 2006 compared to non-GAAP net income of $5.1 million in fiscal 2005, and resulting in non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.31 in fiscal 2006. This compares to non-GAAP EPS of $0.32 in the same period last year when the effective non-GAAP tax rate was 34% and shares outstanding were 16.2 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Unica has provided in this press release selected financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. This information includes historical and estimated future non-GAAP operating income, net income, effective tax rate, and earnings per share.

Unica uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Unica’s ongoing operational performance. Unica believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends, and in comparing its financial results with other companies in Unica’s industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. Specifically, on both a historic and a forward-looking basis, these non-GAAP measures exclude:

•

Expense associated with the write-off of in-process research and development and amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions, as exclusion of these expenses allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both the Company’s newly acquired and long-held businesses and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies.

•

Expense associated with share-based compensation related to stock options, the Company’s employee stock purchase plan and restricted stock units because, while share-based compensation is a significant ongoing expense affecting the Company’s results of operations, the Company’s management excludes share-based compensation from the

Company’s forecasting and planning process used to allocate resources. In addition, because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types, the Company believes that excluding share-based compensation may enable useful comparisons of the Company’s operating results to its competitors.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure as detailed above. As previously mentioned, a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.

(2) Under the two-class method, in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, basic net income (loss) per share was computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the fiscal period. Diluted net income (loss) per share was computed using the more dilutive of (a) the two-class method and (b) the if-converted method. The Company allocates net income first to preferred stockholders based on dividend rights under the Company’s charter and dividends paid, and then to preferred and common stockholders, pro rata, based on ownership interests. Net losses were not allocated to preferred stockholders. In addition, for the quarter and year ended September 30, 2005, net loss applicable to common stockholders and net loss per share reflect the payment of a special one-time preferred stock dividend of $4.1 million in August 2005 in connection with Unica’s initial public offering. The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders for the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

(3) The Non-GAAP tax provision excludes the impact of the write off of in-process research and development, amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations and stock-based compensation expense; net of permanent differences and income taxes. Reflected in taxes is an adjustment for the difference between the effective tax rate used for the quarters compared to the actual annual rate.

(4) Non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding for the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2005 includes the conversion of Unica’s preferred stock into 4,083 shares of common stock. As a result, earnings applicable to common shareholders are not affected by the accretion of preferred stock dividends, or allocation of earnings to preferred stockholders, as in the computation of GAAP EPS.
