TCSI CORPORATION ANTICIPATES A LOSS FOR THIRD QUARTER
BERKELEY, California - September 25, 1996 - TCSI Corporation (Nasdaq:
TCSI), the global provider of software to the telecom industry, reported
today that results for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 are expected to
include revenues below those reported for the quarter ended June 30, 1996
and that the Company anticipates incurring a net loss for the quarter.
"This quarter has turned out to be a disappointment," said Roger A.
Strauch, president and chief executive officer. "As previously indicated,
the nature of our business is such that it is difficult to predict the size
and timing of significant customer engagements and license fees. We
recently determined that a number of agreements that we had anticipated to
close during the quarter will likely not close by quarter-end. During the
quarter, the Company continued to invest significant amounts for the
development, introduction, and marketing of new products, product
enhancements, and services in anticipation of such orders."
Statements contained in this press release which are not historical facts
are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements
are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual
results to differ materially from those projected. Such risks and
uncertainties include in particular the size and timing of license fees
closed during the quarter. Additional risks are detailed in the Company's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its most
recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
