For Immediate Release:
July 20, 2006

                    SIMULATIONS PLUS ANNOUNCES STOCK DIVIDEND

               BOARD OF DIRECTORS APPROVES TWO-FOR-ONE STOCK SPLIT

LANCASTER, CA JULY 20, 2006 - Simulations Plus, Inc. (AMEX: SLP), a leading
provider of simulation and modeling software for pharmaceutical discovery and
development, announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a
two-for-one split of the Company's common stock. The number of authorized shares
remains at 20 million. Each shareholder of record at the close of business on
Monday, July 31, 2006 will receive a stock dividend certificate for one
additional share for every outstanding share held on the record date, and
trading will begin on a split-adjusted basis on August 14, 2006. In accordance
with the terms of the Stock Option Plan of 1996, employees with stock options
will benefit from the split by receiving twice the number of shares at one-half
the exercise price for options granted prior to the record date.

Walt Woltosz, chairman and chief executive officer of Simulations Plus, said,
"In the meetings we've had with investors and potential investors as part of our
investor relations program over several years, the `thin float' has been an
ongoing issue. This dividend forward split will result in the public float
increasing from about 1.6 million shares to about 3.2 million shares. The board
of directors has decided that a stock dividend is appropriate at this time
because of our demonstrated sustained growth and our expectation that this will
continue."
