PRESENTATION SUMMARY

S1. Opening Comments (J.E.) 1. 2Q05 Highlights: 1. For the second consecutive qtr., revenues increased over those obtained in the previous year. 2. However, an unexpected shortfall in license fees hampered the Co.'s earnings comparison. 3. The shortfall occurred in the Co.'s Logility subsidiary, and AMSWA believes that this is a temporary phenomenon. 4. AMSWA is pleased that it recorded its 15th consecutive qtr. of profitability under GAAP.

2. New Generation Computing (NGC): 1. AMSWA continues to sell its new products to new and to existing customers. 2. One of the big wins with a new customer was with WestPoint Stevens, who selected NGC's Web-based sourcing and production system, ESPS, along with the EPDM product data management module to streamline their global sourcing and production. 3. Other significant wins were with Roka Apparel and Gold Toe Brands. 4.
