and sales of Simulations Plus, said: &ldquo;We achieved strong revenue growth in the first half of our fiscal year, as we engaged
with more clients than ever, continued expanding our software license base into new markets, and realized recurring renewal rates
of 96% for software fees. As we shift our focus to the second half of the year, our teams will be working hard on the full pipeline
of consulting service projects and new releases for several products, including a major one for our flagship program, GastroPlus&trade;.
We will also continue to recruit prospective employees to help execute our strategic growth plans. Finally, our aggressive global
training workshop and conference schedule will assist us with our goal of educating more scientists and promoting our modeling
&amp; simulation solutions to different audiences, and we anticipate these activities will help our longstanding positive momentum
in revenue growth to continue.&rdquo;</P>
