This
news release may contain forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the federal
securities laws. Statements regarding
future events, developments, and the Company's
future performance, as well as management's
expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans,
estimates, or projections relating to
the future (including, without limitation,
statements concerning revenue and net
income) are forward-looking statements
within the meaning of these laws and involve
a number of risks and uncertainties. Moreover,
these forward-looking statements are subject
to a number of risks and uncertainties,
some of which are outlined below. As a
result, actual results may vary materially
from those anticipated by the forward-looking
statements. Among the important factors
that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those indicated by such
forward-looking statements are: the volume
and timing of systems sales and installations;
length of sales cycles and the installation
process; the possibility that products
will not achieve or sustain market acceptance;
seasonal patterns of sales and customer
buying behavior; the timing, cost, and
success or failure of new product and
service introductions, development, and
product upgrade releases; undetected errors
or bugs in software; changing economic,
political, or regulatory influences in
the health-care industry; changes in product-pricing
policies; availability of third-party
products and components; competitive pressures,
including product offerings, pricing,
and promotional activities; the Company's
ability or inability to attract and retain
qualified personnel; possible regulation
of the Company's software by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration; uncertainties
concerning threatened, pending, and new
litigation against the Company, including
related professional services fees; uncertainties
concerning the amount and timing of professional
fees incurred by the Company generally;
changes of accounting estimates and assumptions
used to prepare the prior periods' financial
statements; general economic conditions;
and the risk factors detailed from time
to time in Quality Systems' periodic reports
and registration statements filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
A significant portion of the Company's
quarterly sales of software product licenses
and computer hardware is concluded in
the last month of the fiscal quarter,
generally with a concentration of such
revenues earned in the final ten business
days of that month. Due to these and other
factors, the Company's revenues and operating
results are very difficult to forecast.
A major portion of the Company's costs
and expenses, such as personnel and facilities,
are of a fixed nature and, accordingly,
a shortfall or decline in quarterly and/or
annual revenues typically results in lower
profitability or losses. As a result,
comparison of the Company's period-to-period
financial performance is not necessarily
meaningful and should not be relied upon
as an indicator of future performance.
The Company undertakes no obligation to
publicly update any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information,
future events, or otherwise.
