Non-GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 was $58.3 million, resulting in a non-GAAP operating margin of 30%.

Non-GAAP results exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and equity investment activities and assume a non-GAAP effective tax rate of 32% for fiscal 2009 and 30% for fiscal 2008.

"We executed well in 2009 -- bringing innovative new technologies to market, showcasing the stability in our core business, expanding our footprint in key verticals and geographies, and meaningfully increasing our profitability," said Vivek Ranadivé, TIBCO's chairman and chief executive officer. "As we enter 2010, we're focused on continuing to extend our innovation advantage as the leading pure-play provider of event-driven infrastructure."
