"We are excited about the excellent results for the third quarter," said Michael Moppert, CEO and Chairman of Day. "The Company has delivered the highest third quarter year license revenue in its operating history. We have added new major blue chip customers, such as Penn State University, Department of Interior, Option One Mortgage, Media General, eMusic, Scripps, and Fiducia. Costs are under control and profitability continues to increase. With these trends we are on track to deliver a healthy 2005."
"In addition to our solid financial results for the quarter we successfully launched a range of new products based on the new standard for Java Content Repositories, which we introduced to the industry this summer," Moppert continued. "The successful diversification of our products combined with our technology leadership in the emerging market of standardized content repositories proves to be a solid basis for further growth. We are excited to see the positive impact of our long-term strategy on the development of our operating results."
Successful Launch of JSR 170-Compliant Content Repository and Connector Product Line
Day Software successfully launched two new product lines, which are both fully compliant with the Content Repository for Java Technology API standard (JSR 170). The first product line is Day's new Java Content Repository - CRX. Day's CRX enables customers to manage large volumes of complex content in a standardized environment, thus gaining significant efficiency and reducing cost.
The second new product line is a series of repository connectors, which enable leading legacy repositories to interact with a standardized Java Content Repository. The first of these innovative interfaces to be delivered is for EMC Documentum. The Day connector will make enterprise content stored in Documentum's legacy repository accessible through the new industry standard, creating greater interoperability and openness. Other connectors that are in development include interfaces for FileNet, OpenText LiveLink, Microsoft SharePoint, IBM Domino.doc, Software AG Tamino, and Interwoven, among others.
"We are very excited about the initial success of these products. We have made substantial investments to initiate and lead the JSR 170 specification, the global standard for enterprise content access, and we have developed our own products in parallel with the standard. We are now on track to position Day Software as the leader in the emerging market for Java Content Repositories. We believe that this expansion of our product portfolio will be an excellent basis for further growth," explained David Nuescheler, Chief Technology Officer of Day and Specification Lead for JSR 170 initiative.
JSR 170 is the new standard that defines the interaction between a business application and the repository where the application stores content. Day Software initiated this standard three years ago, and is leading an international industry expert group that develops the JSR 170 specification. The JSR 170 initiative has gained the support of all major industry players such as IBM, Oracle, Sun and SAP.
BEA Partnership to Deliver JSR 170 Connectivity for BEA WebLogic Portal
In the third quarter of 2005, Day entered into a technology partnership with BEA, a recognized leader of infrastructure software, to deliver a JSR 170-compliant connector for BEA WebLogic Portal(TM). The Day repository connector is designed to enable BEA WebLogic Portal to interact with enterprise content repositories -- such as Day's Content Repository Extreme (CRX) -- that are compliant with the new JSR 170 industry standard.
"Supporting JSR 170 gives our customers a standard, open interface to a wide variety of content repositories, helping them to develop fuller, richer portals," said Bill Roth, vice president, solutions and product marketing, BEA Systems, Inc. "JSR 170 is emerging as one of the most important standards governing how content management and portal applications should work together. By leveraging Day's engineering expertise around JSR 170, BEA is able to provide its customers with best of breed capabilities around this exciting new standard."
BEA's decision to integrate Day Software's JSR 170 technology into their products serves as further support of Day's position as a leader in the emerging market of Java Content Repositories.
