For Immediate Release
Corel Announces Second Quarter Results
Ottawa, Canada - June 20, 2000 - Corel Corporation (NASDAQ: CORL, TSE: COR) today announced results for its second quarter ended May 31, 2000. Revenues for the second quarter of fiscal year 2000 were $36.6 million, producing a net loss of $23.6 million or ($0.36) per share. Cash at the end of the quarter stood at $9.9 million. During the same period last year, Corel reported revenues of $70.5 million, with a net profit of $ 9.2 million or $0.14 per share fully diluted. All figures are reported in US currency.
"These final numbers are consistent with what we reported last week during the release of our preliminary second quarter results," said John Blaine, executive vice president of finance and chief financial officer at Corel Corporation. "The results include some non-recurring costs associated with our proposed merger with Inprise/Borland Corporation and also losses of our equity investments, offset by a gain on the sale of GraphOn shares. We continue to work diligently towards finalizing our cost-reduction plan but it is not complete at this time."
"We've faced some challenges over the past three months but we've also enjoyed some noteworthy product successes," said Dr. Michael Cowpland, president and chief executive officer of Corel Corporation. "We are continuing our tradition of innovative product development, forging strong partnerships, acquiring complementary technologies and earning praise from the industry for our efforts."
Q2 Highlights
Product Development:
Corel announced that it is developing an enterprise edition of Corel® LINUX® OS. This new product will target the small to medium-sized enterprise market, offering front and back-end support for Linux as well as a migration path enabling users to move freely between multiple platforms. Corel is developing this product by combining its technology with that of its Linux affiliates - Rebel.com and GraphOn.
Corel's first marquee application for Linux - WordPerfect® Office 2000 for Linux® (Standard and Deluxe editions) - hit store shelves. Corel's office suite for Linux and Corel LINUX OS were among the top 10 best-selling Linux products in the US retail market during May, based on revenue figures tracked by PC Data, a market research firm. PC Data traced sales of a total of 105 Linux products last month.
Corel announced developments with its Linux graphics initiatives: CorelDRAW® for Linux® will be available in July, two months ahead of schedule, while the free download of Corel PHOTO-PAINT® for Linux® will be available this month. As well, Corel® Knockout 1.5, the masking software application for both Macintosh® and PC, hit store shelves in North America in May.
Partnerships and Acquisitions:
Corel acquired industry-leading professional graphics software products and technologies from MetaCreations Corporation: MetaCreations Painter&trade, Kai's Power Tools® (KPT®) and Bryce®.
Corel announced three strategic OEM agreements to bundle its Linux products with dual-boot computer systems offered by EBIZ Enterprises Inc., Polywell Computers Inc. and Computer Technology Link Corporation. These partnerships advance Corel's strategy to provide a bridge between Windows® and Linux.
In an effort to move Linux further into the mainstream, Corel entered into another agreement with EBIZ Enterprises allowing Corel to bundle EBIZ's Linux-based ISP with Corel LINUX OS.
Corel entered into a worldwide agreement with Linux Technology Ltd., a division of the PC Chips Group of Companies, to bring Corel® WordPerfect® 8 for Linux® to a new platform - Internet Appliances.
Corel made progress with its long-term strategy of offering its products and services over the Web. During the second quarter, Corel signed an agreement with C ME RUN, its first tier-one consumer ASP. Corel is also partnering with Spinway to provide free Internet access to all Corel customers.
Industry Awards:
Corel continued to receive industry recognition for its world-class products: CorelDRAW 9 won three awards, including CNET's Editor's Choice Award. WordPerfect Office 2000 for Linux (Deluxe Edition) was placed on Winmag.com's prestigious WinList and Corel LINUX OS was awarded the best New Product Award in the End User Software Category by Government Computer News at FOSE 2000.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Corel Corporation (the "Company") have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Corel Corporation Limited, Corel International Corporation, Corel, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Corel Corporation (U.S.A.).
In the opinion of Management, these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to state fairly the results for the periods presented.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements as of November 30, 1998 and 1999 and for each of the three years in the period ended November 30, 1999 including notes thereto, included in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended November 30, 1999. The consolidated results of operations for the second fiscal quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period. The Company adopted SOP 98-9, "Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions", in Q1 fiscal 2000. This has not had a material impact on the Company's financial results.
These financial statements have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles that are applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As such, the financial statements do not reflect adjustments in the carrying values of the assets and liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and the balance sheet classifications used, that would be necessary if the going concern assumption were not appropriate, and such adjustments could be material.
Based on the prospects for revenue and the cost structure currently in place at Corel, Corel expects that results for the next quarter will be similar to those experienced in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 and accordingly, management believes that the Company needs to secure additional equity or debt financing immediately and to effect a significant cost reduction plan in the near term. The Company is currently pursuing the public offering as described in note 3, the contemplated proceeds of which management believes are necessary for the Company to continue to meet its liabilities and other commitments as they become due. If such proposed issuance of common shares and common share purchase warrants does not occur, other sources of financing are not secured, the contemplated cost reduction plan is not completed and successfully implemented in the near term and /or Corel's operating results do not improve, the Company's ability to continue would be in substantial doubt and the going concern assumption detailed in the preceding paragraph may not be appropriate.
2. Segmented information
The Company has only one global operating segment as detailed in the consolidated financial statements included herein.
