C-COR REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR FIRST QUARTER

OF FISCAL YEAR 2006

State College, PA (October 20, 2005) – C-COR Incorporated (Nasdaq: CCBL), a global provider of interoperable network solutions that simplify the transition to on demand networks, today reported its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, ended September 23, 2005. Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 were $63.5 million compared to $62.1 million for the same period last year. Bookings in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 were $73.2 million for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.15. C-COR’s book-to-bill ratio in the first quarter of fiscal year 2005 was .86.

The Company’s net loss for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 was $14.8 million compared to a net loss of $1.0 million for the same period last year. The loss per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 was $.31 compared to a loss per diluted share of $.02 for the same period last year.

The net loss for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 included a $6.1 million charge for an increase in excess inventory reserves related to the Company’s Transport product line, $1.5 million of amortization of intangibles, $1.2 million of stock compensation expense, and restructuring charges of $383,000. These charges, which equate to $.19 on a per share basis, are included in the Company’s results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), but are typically excluded from the First Call analysts’ projections. C-COR is breaking out these numbers to improve comparability of the reported GAAP results and the non-GAAP First Call number.

For the second quarter of fiscal year 2006, ending December 23, 2005, the Company anticipates sales of between $63 and $67 million and a GAAP loss per share of between $.18 and $.22. These projections include $1.3 million related to amortization of intangible assets, approximately $1.0 million of stock compensation expense, and

restructuring expense of approximately $900,000, or an aggregate of $.07 per share, which are typically excluded from the First Call analysts’ projections. C-COR is breaking out these numbers to improve comparability of the reported GAAP results and the non-GAAP First Call number.
