WatchGuard Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:WGRD), a leading provider of network security solutions, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2005. Fourth Quarter Results WatchGuard reported net revenue of $19.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to $19.0 million in the previous quarter, and $19.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. Product revenue was $11.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to $11.6 million in the previous quarter, and $11.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. Service revenue was $7.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to $7.4 million in the previous quarter, and $7.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. WatchGuard reported a net loss of $1.3 million, or $0.04 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to a net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.03 per share, in the previous quarter, and a net loss of $2.9 million, or $0.08 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2004. Excluding amortization of acquisition-related costs, non-cash stock-based compensation, and restructuring charges, WatchGuard reported a non-GAAP net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.05 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $33,000, or $0.00 per share, in the previous quarter, and a non-GAAP net loss of $2.6 million, or $0.08 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2004. The reconciliation of WatchGuard's GAAP operating results to WatchGuard's non-GAAP operating results for the quarters ended December 31, 2005, September 30, 2005, and December 31, 2004, are set forth at the end of this release. 2005 Year-End Results For 2005, WatchGuard reported net revenue of $75.2 million, compared to $82.8 million in 2004. Product revenue was $45.2 million, compared to $54.4 million in 2004. Service revenue was $30.0 million, compared to $28.4 million in 2004. Product revenue for the first quarter of 2005 was affected by WatchGuard's transition to a sell-through revenue recognition model during the quarter in the U.S., Australia, and New Zealand. WatchGuard estimates the transition to a sell-through model in these regions reduced product revenues by approximately $2.0 million for the first quarter of 2005, not including changes in customer buying patterns upon conversion to a sell-through model, which cannot be reliably determined. WatchGuard reported a net loss of $8.2 million, or $0.24 per share, in 2005, compared to a net loss of $7.7 million, or $0.23 per share, in 2004. Excluding non-cash stock-based compensation, amortization of other intangible assets, and restructuring charges, WatchGuard reported a non-GAAP net loss of $6.2 million, or $0.18 per share, in 2005, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $6.3 million, or $0.19 per share, in 2004. WatchGuard ended December 31, 2005, with $77.8 million in cash and securities, of which $3.0 million is restricted cash under the terms of certain real estate lease agreements. "We have significantly increased the efficiency of our development organization and have brought an increased number of products and features to the market in 2005," said Ed Borey, Chief Executive Officer of WatchGuard.

WatchGuard believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future. This adjustment to our GAAP net loss is presented with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of WatchGuard's underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance. For example, this non-GAAP measure is an indication of our baseline performance before other charges that are considered by management to be nonrecurring and otherwise outside of our core operating results. This adjusted non-GAAP measure is among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for planning and forecasting of future periods. Non-GAAP results exclude the following items. Stock-Based Compensation. Non-GAAP net loss excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expenses resulting from the variable accounting treatment of certain stock options issued to employees and directors, restricted stock issued to directors and officers, stock options granted to consultants and certain restricted common stock and common stock subject to repurchase issued in connection with the RapidStream, Inc. acquisition. These stock-based compensation expenses have no current effect on cash or the future uses of cash and substantially all result from non-recurring events. Substantially all of WatchGuard's stock-based compensation expenses fluctuate with changes in WatchGuard's stock price. For this reason, changes in stock price could mask variation and trends in WatchGuard's GAAP net loss that may otherwise be important to an understanding the Company's operating results. For these reasons, management believes that exclusion of stock-based compensation expense may be important to an understanding of WatchGuard's ongoing operational performance. Amortization of other intangible assets. Non-GAAP net loss also excludes amortization of other intangible assets arising from WatchGuard's acquisition of RapidStream in April 2002. These non-cash charges represent a non-cash expense that has no effect on current or future period cash flows or operations of the Company. The amortization expense results from WatchGuard's acquisition of RapidStream in April 2002, a non-recurring event outside of the course of WatchGuard's normal business operations. Due to the nonrecurring nature of this event, management believes that exclusion of the related amortization charges may be important to an understanding of WatchGuard's ongoing operational performance. Restructuring charges. Finally, non-GAAP net loss excludes restructuring charges resulting from our restructuring plans initiated in 2001 and 2002. Again, these charges represent a non-recurring, non-cash expense that has no effect on current or future period cash flows or operations. These restructuring charges resulted from the Company's restructuring plan initiated in 2001, in an effort to streamline operations and reduce operating costs, and an unrelated restructuring in 2002, to eliminate redundancies and excess headcount resulting from the acquisition of RapidStream. Due to the nonrecurring nature of these events, management believes that exclusion of the related restructuring charges may be important to an understanding of WatchGuard's ongoing operational performance. Management believes that presentation of non-GAAP net loss provides an additional tool for investors to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of GAAP net loss to the non-GAAP net loss, as presented herein. -0- *T WATCHGUARD TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
