• Simulations Plus continues to increase its technological advantage Recent Enhancements • Version 8.0 released May 2012 • Expanded drug - drug interaction to include transporters and induction • Expanded PDPlus ™ pharmacodynamics modeling module • Expanded ocular delivery model • Expanded nasal/pulmonary delivery model • Version 6.0 released May 2012 • Prediction of sites of metabolism now available • Best - in - class pKa models improved and display enhanced • Retrained models with new atomic level descriptors – our already top - ranked property predictions were further improved • Version 3.0 & MedChem Designer 2.0 released May 2012 • Integration of new MedChem Designer 2.0 software • MedChem Designer downloads/activations over 3000 • Significant improvements in processing speed • Prediction of metabolite structures to be available soon • Version 4.0 released in June 2011 • Virtual Trials added to show expected variances in experiments • FDA added more licenses during 3 rd quarter • Customer base continues to grow

Marketing and Sales Program • Added Cheminformatics salesperson July 2012 to increase sales of ADMET Design Suite™ (MedChem Studio™, MedChem Designer™, and ADMET Predictor™) • Conferences/Scientific Meetings continue to be primary source of leads • During Q4 we did 14 meetings in the U.S., Europe, and Asia • Total of 44 posters/presentations, and >25 peer - reviewed client publications during FY2012 • Training Workshops – Basic GastroPlus and Cheminformatics training workshops added to our Advanced GastroPlus™ training workshops • New Cheminformatics training workshop to be held in February • Strategic Digital Marketing Initiatives • Collaborations/Consulting/Grants – Progressing on our 5 - year collaboration with the FDA Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition to build many toxicity models with ADMET Predictor/Modeler™ for food additives and contaminants – Consulting studies continue – provides exposure of software to new groups – New funded collaboration announced for enhancement of the GastroPlus oral cavity dosing model – New funded collaboration announced for enhancement of the GastroPlus pulmonary dosing model • We believe fundamental industry shift continues – Software tools are constantly gaining wider acceptance and applications are growing – 10 new customers during 4QFY12 (includes new companies as well as new departments within existing large customers ), and 43 new in all of FY2012

FDA Food Safety Research Collaboration • Completed the first year of a 5 - year renewable Research Collaboration Agreement (RCA) with Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN) to provide model - building capabilities for a large number (>70,000) of substances that can be in foods as additives or contaminants, only a small fraction of which have been testes for various toxicities. • Models will then be used to predict the likely toxicity of the molecules that were not tested to identify likely problems • Requested code modifications from the FDA became a part of ADMET Predictor 6.0, which was released in May. • The first new toxicity model for ADMET Predictor coming from this collaboration was released with Version 6.0. This is a model for predicting rodent carcinogenicity. Others are in progress.

NCE (New Chemical Entity) Project • Using a public database courtesy of GlaxoSmithKline, and applying MedChem Studio/MedChem Designer/ADMET Predictor, we designed a number of lead candidates to inhibit the malaria parasite and qualified them for acceptable properties using only ADMET Predictor predictions. • Seven molecules were received from synthesis and were tested against the malaria parasite. All seven showed inhibition of the growth of the parasite , with two active at a nanomolar level against both wild - type and drug - resistant strains of the parasite . • Note that last week according to Reuters, GlaxoSmithKline Plc reported disappointing results for their malaria vaccine for infants in Africa’s largest ever clinical trial of over 6,500 babies aged 6 - 12 weeks. It was effective for about 30% of babies. Reuter noted further that GSK plans to push ahead with vaccine development. Note that our molecules are not intended as vaccines, but as therapeutic drugs. • We have initiated communications with outside organizations that are known to fund developments for malaria and other diseases to determine whether there is interest in funding further work by Simulations Plus using the methods we have demonstrated.

Summary • For 4 QFY12 and FY2012: - Financial performance continues our 5 - year profitable trend - Sale of Words+ has simplified and focused the business - margins increased, reporting and auditing much simpler • Continuing to Expand our Life Sciences team: - Two new Ph.D.s started in August, interviews continuing - Promoting development of new products and services (e.g., MembranePlus ) - Strengthens and supports our marketing and sales efforts • Expanding Sales Team and Activities - New field sales manager for cheminformatics products and services started in July - Greater staff time spent on marketing and sales activities - New training workshop for chemistry tools to be held in Boston in February • Simulations Plus is globally recognized as a leader - Outstanding reputation for scientific expertise and innovation - Strong customer support • Strong cash position and no debt - Four quarterly cash dividends of $0.05/share/quarter have now been paid for a total of just under $3.2 million, yet cash grew by over $2.5 million during FY2012 .
