·Diluted earnings of $1.55 per share, including a gain from sale of Printing Systems; earnings per share were $1.50, up 15 percent without the gain;

·Gross profit margin increased year to year for the 12th consecutive quarter.

ARMONK, N.Y., July 18, 2007 . . . IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced second-quarter 2007 diluted earnings of $1.55 per share from continuing operations, including 5 cents per share for a pre-tax gain of $81 million relating to the sale of the Printing Systems Division (PSD), an increase of 19 percent as reported, compared with diluted earnings of $1.30 per share in the second quarter of 2006.  Diluted earnings for the second-quarter 2007 were $1.50 per share, excluding this gain, an increase of 15 percent year over year.

Second-quarter income from continuing operations was $2.3 billion, including the gain from the sale of PSD, compared with $2.0 billion in the second quarter of 2006, an increase of 12 percent.  Without the gain, income from continuing operations of $2.2 billion in the second quarter of 2007 increased $167 million, or 8 percent versus the comparable period last year.  Total revenues for the second quarter of 2007 of $23.8 billion increased 9 percent (6 percent, adjusting for currency) from the second quarter of 2006.

“This quarter’s strong revenue growth — our best since 2001 — underscores IBM’s global capabilities, as well as the higher value that clients place on our expanding software product line and wide range of services offerings that are helping them transform their businesses,” said Samuel J. Palmisano, IBM chairman, president and chief executive officer.  “Our overall results again demonstrate the strength of our business model and our ability to achieve profitable growth and strong cash generation.  Earlier this year we described to our investors IBM’s objective for earnings per share growth through 2010.  While this is a long-term goal, our first-half results represent solid progress on major elements of this roadmap, including earnings growth, margin expansion, and revenue growth in key areas: emerging markets, acquisitions and service oriented architecture opportunities.”

From a geographic perspective, the Americas’ second-quarter revenues were $10.1 billion, an increase of 6 percent as reported (5 percent, adjusting for currency) from the 2006 period.  Revenues from Europe/Middle East/Africa were $8.2 billion, up 13 percent (6 percent, adjusting for currency).  Asia-Pacific revenues increased 10 percent (10 percent, adjusting for currency) to $4.6 billion.  OEM revenues were $852 million, down 9 percent compared with the 2006 second quarter.

Total Global Services revenues grew 10 percent (7 percent, adjusting for currency), led by growth in Asia Pacific.  Global Business Services segment revenues, which benefited from strong client demand for SOA offerings and global delivery capabilities, increased 10 percent (8 percent, adjusting for currency) to $4.3 billion.  Global Technology Services segment revenues increased 10 percent (7 percent, adjusting for currency) to $8.8 billion, with significant growth from existing clients.  IBM signed services contracts totaling $11.7 billion, up 22 percent year over year, and ended the second quarter with an estimated services backlog, including Strategic Outsourcing, Business Transformation Outsourcing, Integrated Technology Services, Global Business Services and Maintenance, of $116 billion, an increase of $7 billion year to year.

Revenues from the Systems and Technology segment totaled $5.1 billion for the quarter, up 2 percent (flat, adjusting for currency).  Systems and Technology revenues from the System p UNIX server products increased 7 percent compared with the 2006 period and revenues from the System x servers increased 16 percent.  Revenues from System z server products increased 4 percent compared with the year-ago period.  Total delivery of System z computing power, which is measured in MIPS (millions of instructions per second), increased 45 percent, marking eight consecutive quarters of year-to-year MIPS growth.  Revenues from the System i servers decreased 15 percent.  Revenues from System Storage increased 6 percent and revenues from Microelectronics decreased 9 percent.

Revenues from the Software segment were $4.8 billion, an increase of 13 percent (9 percent, adjusting for currency) compared with the second quarter of 2006.  Revenues from IBM’s middleware products, which primarily include WebSphere, Information Management, Tivoli, Lotus and Rational products, were $3.7 billion, up 16 percent versus the second quarter of 2006.  Operating systems revenues of $568 million increased 2 percent compared with the prior-year quarter.

For the WebSphere family of software products, which facilitate customers’ ability to manage a wide variety of business processes using open standards to interconnect applications, data and operating systems, revenues increased 28 percent.  Revenues for Information Management software, which enables clients to leverage information on demand, increased 21 percent.  Revenues from Tivoli software, infrastructure software that enables clients to centrally manage networks including security and storage capability, increased 33 percent, and revenues for Lotus software, which allows collaborating and messaging by clients in real-time communication and knowledge management, increased 12 percent year over year.  Revenues from Rational software, integrated tools to improve the processes of software development, increased 11 percent compared with the year-ago quarter.

Global Financing segment revenues increased 4 percent (1 percent, adjusting for currency) in the second quarter to $597 million.

The company’s total gross profit margin was 41.8 percent in the 2007 second quarter compared with 41.2 percent in the 2006 period — the 12th consecutive quarter of year-to-year increase.

Total expense and other income increased 11 percent to $6.8 billion compared with the prior-year period, and increased 12 percent without the gain from the PSD sale.  SG&A expense increased 15 percent to $5.6 billion.  RD&E expense increased 1 percent compared with the year-ago period.  Intellectual property and custom development income increased to $246 million compared with $188 million a year ago.  Other (income) and expense contributed income of $253 million in the second quarter of 2007, including the gain from the PSD sale, versus income of $196 million in the second quarter of 2006.  Without the benefit, other (income) and expense contributed income of $172 million in the quarter.

IBM’s effective tax rate in the second-quarter 2007 was 28.0 percent compared with 30.0 percent in the second quarter of 2006.  Excluding the impact of the gain from the PSD sale, the second-quarter 2007 tax rate was 28.5 percent compared with 30.0 percent in the year-ago quarter.

Shares repurchased in the second quarter were approximately $14.6 billion, including $12.5 billion executed through accelerated share repurchase agreements in May.  The repurchases are part of the $15 billion authorization for the company’s stock repurchase program approved by the IBM board of directors on April 24.

The weighted-average number of diluted common shares outstanding in the second-quarter 2007 was 1.46 billion compared with 1.56 billion shares in the same period of 2006.  As of June 30, 2007, there were 1.36 billion basic common shares outstanding.

Debt, including Global Financing, totaled $34.7 billion, compared with $22.7 billion at year-end 2006.  From a management segment view, the non-global financing debt-to-capitalization ratio was 46.7 percent at the end of June 30, 2007, reflecting increased financial leverage associated with the accelerated share repurchase agreements.  Global Financing debt increased $658 million from year-end 2006 to a total of $22.9 billion, resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of 7.0 to 1.

NON-GAAP SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding the company's results as determined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company also discusses, in its earnings press release and earnings presentation materials, the following Non-GAAP information which management believes provides useful information to investors. Gain on Sale of Printing Systems Division Management presents certain financial results excluding the effect of a gain related to the company’s Printing Systems Division (PSD) business. In June, the company divested 51 percent of its shares in a wholly-owned subsidiary, InfoPrint Solutions, that was based on the printing business. Given its unique nature, management believes that presenting certain financial information without the gain is more representative of the company's operational performance and provides additional insight into, and clarifies the basis for, historical and/or future performance, which may be more useful for investors. -S9-

NON-GAAP SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS Constant Currency Management refers to growth rates at constant currency or adjusting for currency so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of the company's business performance. Generally, when the dollar either strengthens or weakens against other currencies, the growth at constant currency rates or adjusting for currency will be higher or lower than growth reported at actual exchange rates. Cash Flow Management includes a presentation of both cash flow from operations and free cash flow that exclude the effect of Global Financing Receivables.   For a financing business, increasing receivables is the basis for growth.  Receivables are viewed as an investment and an income-producing asset. Therefore, management presents financing receivables as an investing activity. Management’s view is that this presentation gives the investor the best perspective of cash available for new investment or for distribution to shareholders. -S10-
