Exhibit 99.1

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Agilysys Reports Unaudited Fiscal 2007 First-Quarter Results

• Sales of $388 Million, down from $410 Million in the Prior-Year Period

• Gross Margin of 14.4%, up from 12.4% in the Prior-Year Period

• Net Income up Significantly to $6.8 Million, or 22 Cents Per Diluted Share

BOCA RATON, Florida – August 3, 2006 – Agilysys, Inc. (Nasdaq: AGYS), a leading provider of enterprise computer technology solutions, today announced fiscal 2007 unaudited first-quarter results for the period ended June 30, 2006.

Consolidated sales for the first quarter were $388.4 million, a decrease of 5.3% compared with sales of $410.0 million for the first quarter last year. The decrease in sales was due to lower-than-expected sales of IBM hardware products, particularly weakness in proprietary servers, which was in contrast to a strong performance in the first quarter last year.

First-quarter sales of hardware products were $296.6 million, down 10.1% from $329.8 million in last year’s first quarter. Software sales were $64.6 million, up 9.7% from $58.9 million a year ago. Services sales were $27.2 million, up 27.7% from $21.3 million in last year’s first quarter.

Gross margin for the quarter increased to 14.4% of sales, compared with 12.4% in last year’s first quarter. The improvement in gross margin is attributed to the strong sales growth in software and services, and higher profit earned on various supplier programs.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the first quarter were $43.7 million, or 11.2% of sales, compared with $41.2 million, or 10.1% of sales, in the prior-year quarter. The year-over-year increase in SG&A expenses is primarily attributable to increased operating expenses associated with the company’s acquisition of The CTS Corporations and entrance into the mainland China and Hong Kong markets. Excluding these expenses, SG&A would have been down $600,000 year-over-year.

First-quarter net income was $6.8 million, or 22 cents per diluted share, compared with a net income of $290,000, or one cent per diluted share, in the first quarter last year, which included a $1.5 million, after tax, restructuring charge and a non-recurring $2.9 million, after tax, loss on redemption of Convertible Trust Preferred Securities.

Arthur Rhein, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Agilysys, said, “While disappointed with the market for proprietary servers in the quarter, I am pleased with our growth in software and services which continue to provide differentiated value to our customers and increased gross margins to our business.”

Retirement of $59.4 Million in Senior Notes

On August 1, 2006, the company’s 9.5% Senior Notes matured and were retired at a total cost of $62.2 million, of which $59.4 million was principal and $2.8 million was accrued interest. The company used available cash to fund the retirement.

Rhein added, “The retirement of the Senior Notes marks the first time in more than 30 years that the company is effectively debt-free.”

Business Outlook

Agilysys updated its fiscal 2007 guidance in a July 25, 2006, news release announcing preliminary first quarter results. As stated in the release, the company anticipates full-year sales growth of approximately 4% to 6% over the prior year. Full-year gross margin is expected to be approximately 13.2% of sales. Selling, general and administrative expenses are anticipated to be approximately 9.8% of sales for fiscal 2007.

Agilysys added that stock option expense for the fiscal year is expected to be $3.9 million on a pre-tax basis. As a result, fiscal 2007 earnings are expected to be in the range of $1.15 to $1.22 per share.

Agilysys also expects to incur fiscal 2007 capital expenditures between $2 million and $4 million and depreciation and amortization of approximately $10 million.

A conference call to discuss the first quarter results is scheduled for 11 a.m. ET on Thursday, August 3, 2006. The conference call will be broadcast live over the Internet and a replay will be accessible on the investor relations page of the company’s Web site: www.agilysys.com.
