Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes non-GAAP operating income, net income, basic and diluted
earnings per share and other non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP
measures exclude the following items:

-   Amortization of purchased intangible assets;
-   In-process research and development capitalization and amortization and;
-   Equity-based compensation expense.

Magic Software's management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP measures
provide useful information to investors and management regarding financial and

operations as well as the net amount of cash generated by its business
operations after taking into account capital spending required to maintain or
expand the business.

principles. Magic Software believes that non-GAAP financial measures have
limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Magic
Software's results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP and that
these measures should only be used to evaluate Magic Software's results of
operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.

Please refer to the Reconciliation of Selected Financial Metrics from GAAP to
Non-GAAP tables below.
