SafeNet (NASDAQ:SFNT), setting the standard for information security, today announced estimated results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006. Estimated revenues for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006, increased 22 percent to $76.8�million, compared to $62.9�million for the same period in 2005. Excluding the Eracom acquisition, year-over-year revenue growth was 17 percent. SafeNet is not providing detailed non-GAAP financials for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 due to the previously announced review and analysis of SafeNet�s historical stock option grants. The accompanying discussion of estimated results, along with the related financial tables, are consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), however, do not include any adjustments that will result from that stock option grant review. The Company is providing estimates of GAAP financial measures that have in past periods been used to calculate non-GAAP financial information. Estimated net loss under GAAP for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was $3.2 million or ($0.15) per share, which compares to a GAAP net income of $0.2 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the same period of 2005. Estimated GAAP net loss includes pre-tax amounts of $6.4 million of costs reflecting restatement-related costs which include legal and other professional fees associated with stock option accounting issues, $4.8 million for amortization of acquired intangibles and $3.5 million for the expensing of stock options in accordance with FAS 123R. The assumed effective income tax rate is 35 percent. SafeNet currently anticipates reporting its results entirely in GAAP beginning the first quarter of 2007. The Company anticipates continuing to provide estimates of GAAP financial measures that have in past periods been used to calculate non-GAAP financial information. Third Quarter 2006 Financial Highlights -- Cash, cash equivalents and short term investments was $328.5 million as of September 30, 2006, as compared to $342.7 million from December 31, 2005. The September 30 amount does not give effect to the anticipated repayment by the Company of principal, interest and other amounts relating to its $250 million of outstanding convertible subordinated notes. The Company expects the total repayment amount to be approximately $254 million. -- Estimated operating cash flow was approximately $14 million for the third quarter of 2006 and approximately $40 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This compares to $4.0 million and $21 million for the same period of 2005. Walter W. Straub, Chairman and Interim CEO of SafeNet, stated, �This is the second consecutive quarter of strong performance across all areas of SafeNet�s businesses. We are particularly pleased to have been able to deliver 17 percent year-over-year revenue growth, excluding acquisitions. Commercial Enterprise continued its recovery with sequential revenue growth and improved profitability. Some of the drivers that could help continue what we hope develops into a trend include growing momentum from our data at rest products, strengthening of our authentication products from initiatives like HSPD-12 and the SWIFT business that is expected to positively impact the next several quarters. Beyond Commercial Enterprise, we continue to see very strong momentum from the Classified Government business emanating from the U.S. Government�s Cryptographic Modernization Initiative, continued and more widespread adoption of our embedded security technologies from OEM and strength from our online content protection business out of Rights Management.� Mr. Straub continued, �Separately, progress has been made with respect to the stock option granting issues. We have identified the impacted periods and estimated compensation expenses. Our objective now is to file the second quarter 2006 Form 10-Q as soon as is practicable, with a goal to do so during this fourth quarter. I believe it is noteworthy that despite the distractions, the Company continued to move forward and performed well during the quarter.� Third Quarter 2006 Business Highlights Customer Wins -- SafeNet announced that SWIFT selected SafeNet as a provider of Hardware Security Modules (HSM) and authentication tokens for its customers to use on its worldwide financial services network. SafeNet's Luna HSMs and iKey authentication tokens will be used to protect PKI operations on the SWIFT financial services network. -- An Asian government selected SafeNet's high speed ethernet encryptor, the first sale of these products in the region. -- Romax Technology, a leading provider of software and consulting to the global transmission industry, selected SafeNet's Sentinel RMS to replace its existing license management system: FlexLM from Macrovision. The implementation of SafeNet's licensing and fulfillment will enable Romax to ensure effective rights control of its high-value engineering design software. SafeNet's Sentinel RMS will also allow Romax to streamline development and gain better control and understanding over their products in order to generate new revenue opportunities and earn fair compensation. -- The GL Company, distributor of instrument-based learning systems, and Jetcam France, developer of PSM OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), chose SafeNet's Sentinel Hardware Keys to protect their software. Sentinel Keys are software rights management tokens that protect software vendors from unauthorized use or distribution of their products. -- Fourteen countries including Australia, Finland, France, Iceland, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore and Thailand selected SafeNet's HSMs to secure the Electronic Passport Projects. E-Passport Projects are managed by local government immigration departments as a preventive measure to combat irregular immigration and unauthorized data alteration. -- Azaire Networks, a leading provider of Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) solutions, completed deployment of SafeNet's QuickSec Server Toolkit with its IP Converged Network Platform (IP-CNP). This successful deployment demonstrates how the integration of industry leading solutions can help protect service providers and subscribers against threats, such as fraud, privacy violations and denial of service attacks. Product and Other Business Developments -- SafeNet launched Sentinel RMSe, the only feature control and licensing solution designed specifically for embedded systems. Sentinel RMSe allows embedded systems vendors to increase profitability by pricing, packaging, and managing the software that powers their embedded devices according to market needs. -- SafeEnterprise(TM) SONET/SDH OC-3, OC-12, and OC-48 Encryptors have received Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2, Level 3 approval, making them widely recognized as highly secure. -- SafeNet announced the launched www.HSPD-12.org, a Web site developed by the members of the HSPD-12 Interoperability Consortium to provide government agencies and systems integrators with information on available solutions necessary to comply with White House-issued Homeland Security Directive (HSPD) 12. The directive mandates that all Federal employees and contractors need to use a smartcard as identification badges for physical access and logical access to IT resources. Share Repurchase Program � On May 4, 2006, the Company�s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $50 million of the Company�s common stock. The Company completed this program on July 24, 2006, using approximately $16 million during the third quarter. The program resulted in the repurchase of a total of 3.1 million shares of common stock. Stock Option Granting Issues Summary and Update -- SafeNet announced that it was not able to file the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 by the early October timeframe previously disclosed, and it is now working towards filing this Form 10-Q during the fourth quarter of 2006. As expected, in connection with this delay, SafeNet received a purported notice of acceleration from Citibank, N.A., Trustee, under the Indenture relating to the issuance of its $250 million 2 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2010 ("Notes") and the Company is preparing to repay these Notes. -- SafeNet concluded that certain option grants made between 2000 and 2005, including grants to directors, officers and employees, were or likely were accounted for using incorrect measurement dates under applicable accounting rules in effect at the time, and that material non-cash, stock-based compensation expenses related to these option grants will have to be recorded.

This period may be affected by any delay in the filing of the Company�s financial statements.

For the year ending December�31, 2006, SafeNet is narrowing and slightly increasing its revenue outlook and currently expects to achieve revenues in the range of $288 to $292�million.
