OBJECTSHARE REPORT FISCAL 1999 AND FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS
IRVINE, California - June 30, 1999 - ObjectShare, Inc.
(OTCBB:OBJS) today reported a net loss of $4.8 million, equal to $0.39
per share, on net revenues of $15.8 million for the year ended March
31, 1999. This compares with a net loss of $7.6 million, or $0.63 per
share, on net revenues of $20.2 million for fiscal year 1998. The
complete Form 10-K for fiscal 1999 is expected to be available
July 14, 1999.
For the fourth quarter ended March 31, 1999, ObjectShare
reported a net loss of $2.5 million, equal to $0.20 per share, compared
with net income of $327,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, a year ago.
Net revenues for the fourth quarter amounted to $4.2 million, compared

Eugene L. Goda, president and chief executive officer,
commented, "Our results continue to be impacted by the market softness
that exists in the software application development market."
Goda added: "Management continued to execute a company-wide
cost reduction program that resulted in operating expenses for the
year, excluding restructuring costs, declining 17 percent to $13.5
million from $16.3 million. This reduction was achieved while incurring
development costs associated with the launch of ObjectShare's
Internet-enabled VisualWorks 5i products."
