Concurrent Computer Corporation Announces
Second Quarter and First Half Fiscal Year 2009 Financial Results

Year-to-Date Operating Income Improvement of Over $4.0 million

ATLANTA, Georgia, January 27, 2009 – Concurrent (Nasdaq: CCUR), today announced its results for the second quarter of the fiscal year that ends June 30, 2009.

Companywide second quarter revenue was $18.1 million with gross margins of 59%. Operating expenses were $9.7 million. The Company generated operating income of approximately $0.9 million and net income of over $0.5 million leading to net income per share of $0.06 on a fully diluted basis. The cash balance at the end of the second quarter was over $27.6 million.

On a first half basis, revenue increased approximately 8% in fiscal 2009 to $36.5 million.  Consolidated gross margins were 57% compared to 53% in the first half of fiscal 2008.  In addition, the Company reduced operating expenses by 6% in the first half of fiscal 2009 to $19.5 million and generated operating income of $1.4 million compared to an operating loss of $2.6 million in the first half of fiscal 2008.

“Despite a challenging economic environment, we had a good second quarter and a strong first half.  We increased both revenue and gross margins while reducing operating expenses which resulted in an improvement in operating income by over $4.0 million compared to this time last year.  The continued strength in our On-Demand business and our diligence with operating expenses resulted in the highest operating income for two consecutive quarters in over 6 years,” said Dan Mondor, Concurrent president and chief executive officer.

Concurrent Computer Corporation will hold a conference call to discuss these results on Tuesday, January 27, 2009 at 10:00 a.m. E.D.T., which will be broadcast live over the Internet on the Company’s web page at www.ccur.com, Investor Relations page.
