Commenting on the results, Fundtech CEO Reuven BenMenachem said: "These are exciting times for us as we begin 2010 with our highest quarterly revenues ever. I believe that we are well positioned in the financial technology industry, as banks of all sizes place a greater emphasis on improving operations and customer experience in their transaction banking business. Our 26% year- over- year organic revenue growth is evidence that we have emerged from the financial crisis stronger than ever. Our increased guidance indicates that we expect strong demand to continue, especially for our main growth engine Global PAYplus®. I believe that our recent organizational changes and the emphasis on scaling our operations, will ensure that we will continue to provide our customers with industry's best products and services which will lead to further growth in 2011 and beyond."

Reconciliation of GAAP Results to Non-GAAP Results
Fundtech provides non-GAAP operating results as a supplement to its GAAP financial results. The presentation of this information should not be considered in isolation to, or as a substitute for the financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for an evaluation of Fundtech with a focus on the performance of its core operations.

Fundtech's executive management team uses these same non-GAAP measures internally to assess the ongoing performance of the company. Since this information is not a GAAP measurement of financial performance, there are material limitations to its usefulness on a stand-alone basis, including the lack of comparability of this presentation to the GAAP financial results of other companies.

We are presenting Fundtech's non-GAAP net income as well as Adjusted EBITDA. We define non-GAAP net income as net income plus stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, impairment of marketable securities, and deferred taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles, impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, impairment of marketable securities, deferred and current taxes, and interest expense (income).

A detailed reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP net income and Adjusted EBITDA is included in the attached Schedule A.
