CA CONTINUES EFFORTS TO IMPROVE EFFICIENCY AND
CAPTURE STRATEGIC GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES

Restructuring Plan Expected to Deliver Annualized Savings of $75 Million;
Includes Workforce Reduction of 5 Percent

ISLANDIA, N.Y., July 27, 2005 – Computer Associates International, Inc. (NYSE:CA) today announced a restructuring plan to continue its efforts to improve its overall efficiency and productivity and to more closely align the Company’s investments with its strategic growth opportunities. Once completed, the restructuring is expected to yield approximately $75 million in savings on an annualized basis.

“As CA moves forward and further sharpens its market focus, we continuously evaluate our business to ensure we have the right people, processes and other investment strategies in place to take advantage of market opportunities that provide the strongest returns on invested capital to our shareholders,” said CA Chief Operating Officer Jeff Clarke. “The changes we are making will enable CA to drive more efficiency and benefits from its resources, grow the business and generate even stronger bottom-line performance.”

As a result of the restructuring plan, which is expected to be substantially implemented by the end of the calendar year, CA will reduce its workforce by approximately 5 percent or 800 positions worldwide, and is also identifying opportunities for facility and procurement rationalization. The workforce reductions are focused on improving productivity and simplifying the product portfolio in research and development; improving overall sales performance; driving efficiencies in back-office operations; and international operations. Workforce-reduction plans will vary by country, based on local legal requirements and in consultation with work councils and employee representatives, as appropriate.

CA expects to take a second quarter fiscal year 2006 pretax charge of between $50 million to $75 million related to severance and associated costs.

“We are committed to making the workforce reductions and taking the costs out of the business as quickly as possible to realize savings,” said CA Chief Financial Officer Bob Davis.

CA has made a number of improvements over the past year as part of its overall efforts to rebuild and refocus the Company. As part of its overall strategy to focus on systems and security management solutions for the enterprise, CA announced a new business unit structure to improve accountability and productivity and has also evaluated its investments in its overall solutions portfolio. In addition, the Company has launched a new sales compensation program, made several key new management hires and acquired a handful of technology companies.

In September 2004, CA announced a restructuring plan that yielded annual savings of $70 million and resulted in a $28 million charge in the second quarter of fiscal year 2005.
