COLUMBIA, Md., MICROS Systems, Inc. [NASDAQ: MCRS] , a leading supplier of information systems to the hospitality industry, today announced the results for its fiscal 2003 first quarter ended September 30, 2002. Revenue for the quarter was $86.5 million, an increase of $3.0 million, or 3.6%, over the same period last year. Net income for the quarter was $2.7 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 206.6%, over the year ago net income of $0.9 million. Earnings per share, on a diluted basis, were $0.15, an increase of $0.10 over the year ago earnings of $0.05 per diluted share. Revenue, net income and earnings per share results met consensus expectations.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2003, MICROS adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."

Tom Giannopoulos, MICROS's Chairman and CEO, stated: "We are pleased with the start of our new fiscal year as we achieved our first quarter financial targets. While we are challenged by the uncertainties of the hospitality industry, we continue to steadily improve our operations to strengthen our leadership position."

MICROS's management guidance for the second fiscal quarter of 2003 ending December 31, 2002 is for revenue between $90.0 million and $94.0 million and net income between $4.0 million and $5.0 million.
