99.1. PRESS RELEASE. AMDOCS LIMITED CONTINUES STRONG, CONSISTENT
GROWTH IN THIRD QUARTER
Revenue increases by 80.1% to $297.0 million and EPS excluding
acquisition-related charges, increases by 76.9% to $0.23
St. Louis, MO - July 18, 2000, Amdocs Limited (NYSE: DOX) today reported that
for the third quarter ended June 30, 2000, revenue reached $297.0 million, an
increase of 80.1% over last year's third quarter. Excluding acquisition-related
charges, net income increased 102% to $51.4 million, while diluted earnings per
share increased 76.9% to $0.23. The acquisition-related charges derive primarily
from the acquisition of Solect Technology Group Inc., which was completed in
April 2000. These charges include write-off of purchased in-process research and
development, amortization of goodwill and purchased intangible assets, other
costs and related tax effects. As a result of the acquisition-related charges,
the Company's as-reported results showed a net loss of $67.2 million, or a loss
of $0.31 per diluted share, compared to net income of $25.4 million or $0.13 per
diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 1999.
Avi Naor, Chief Executive Officer of Amdocs Management Limited, noted, "Amdocs
continues to demonstrate strong growth and consistent performance with another
excellent quarter. As the world's leader in customer care and billing systems,
Amdocs is uniquely positioned to leverage the demand for advanced systems in the
communications and Internet industries."
Naor continued, "We are experiencing strong demand for our systems in all target
segments: wireline, wireless and IP. Our momentum in the market continues with
major new projects for total solutions.
For example, at CenturyTel we have been selected to provide an end-to-end
convergent customer care and billing system."
Naor added, "In the IP arena, we are rapidly expanding our market share. We are
working with innovators in all key emerging IP segments, such as VISPs (virtual
ISPs), ASPs, wireless IP and DSL providers. In the explosive wireless IP sector,
Amdocs is the established market leader with installations and projects in GPRS,

full range of business models in the IP market, including convergent voice-IP,
hybrid and standalone architectures."
Naor concluded, "Through our long-term, ongoing customer relationships, Amdocs
achieves both recurring revenue for ongoing support, as well as new
opportunities in existing customers. These are key factors in ensuring that we
maintain our sales momentum. Amdocs' visibility continues to be high. Through
the combination of Amdocs' business stability, together with emerging new
opportunities, we are very confident moving forward."
